I concur with all the people who suggested you get a 3-series processor and use an XPanel for testing. While you're getting that together...
1. Do you work for a company that is a Crestron Dealer? Get yourself enrolled in the Level 1 Programming Class.
2. Check out Answer ID 5188 on the website which is all about getting into SmartGraphics. Near the bottom of this page are links to other related Answer IDs; in particular ID 5386 which has 12 instruction videos.
3. Check out example programs (mostly for Crestron gear) here:
4. Check out the A+S Buffer Tests.zip<> file in the group's files-programs folder. A great illustration on the difference between analog and serial buffers (came across it recently while searching for this debate from years ago)
5. I sent the following list to a coworker I will be training soon:
These are the most common/useful symbols in the Simpl Symbol Library, I suggest you read their help files (press F1 when highlighted):

Subject: [Crestron] New Programmer
Hi there, new to the group and here to learn. I am also new to Crestron programming and have the following hardware:
CP2 Processor
TPS-6X Touchscreen
All relevant software
Does anybody have any tips about getting started? Is it possible to simulate control systems (and therefore program them) without any additional physical hardware? I would very much like to get into this.
Any thoughts/feedback/ideas would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
C
