Crestron Weather Sample Project v1.0 Release Notes
====================================================

This is a SIMPL Windows project that shows how to use the Crestron weather module to display weather data on a touch panel.

The architecture of the modules is to have a single "engine" module (Crestron Weather Processor) with a user interface module (Crestron Weather Touch Panel Interface) for each touch panel.

The engine communicates with each user interface module via an Equipment Crosspoint Routing Symbol. Please make sure the ID's are configured correctly in the parameter fields of each module. The Equipment ID field value in the Processor module MUST match the Processor ID value in the Touch Panel module. In addition, the Control ID value in each Touch Panel module MUST be UNIQUE.

The project has been configured to use a TPMC-8X, TPS-6X and TPMC-3X.

To reduce the module footprint in the control system, the modules have been designed to share the menu between all touch panels in the system. This means that when a user selects a menu item on one touch panel, all touch panels will switch to that menu item. The exception to this is the Current Conditions. Selecting Current Conditions will not force all other touch panels to the Current Conditions page.

Please see the individual module help files for more information.

NOTE: The weather data connection uses a host name to connect with the data server. This means that the control system must have it's DNS settings properly configured in order to receive weather data.
