***WARNING BEFORE YOU MAKE ANY CHANGES*
**BACKUP ANY FILE INVOLVED***
**THIS MEANS CONFIG FILES AND PROJECT FILES

**THIS IS FOR TESTING PURPOSES ONLY****
****NEVER USE THIS ON A LIVE SYSTEM


This procedure will allow you to add the "setup" command to Simpl. However, it's crucial to understand the risks involved. By making these changes, you could inadvertently prevent your project file from opening in the future. Here's an example of how I learned this lesson:

Years ago, while working on a project with Prodigy processors, Crestron limited the number of touch panels to six. However, my project required eight panels. I was familiar with the .tio files at the time, so I decided to add a new panel. I copied the PTL4 configuration, making only the necessary changes to names and reference numbers. Then, I modified the PMC2 to support the new panel type on all Ethernet slots. This worked perfectly at first, and I completed the project successfully.

However, a year later, when I revisited the project to make updates, the file failed to open. It crashed with an obscure error. Fortunately, I had documented the changes I made and kept a copy of the .tio files. Without those, I would have had to start from scratch.

In the instructions below, I’m referencing an existing item in the file instead of creating a stripped-down version with just the setup button. This approach reduces the risk of encountering the issue I faced after a database update.

If you still wish to proceed, here’s how to do it:

Backup the following file:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Crestron\Cresdb\Programming\symlib2.tio

Edit the file using a text editor (e.g., Notepad++).

Locate the following lines (current database lines 433947 & 433948):
Helpers=465,633,7132,7133,7134,7135,7136,7137
Helpers6=465,633,3020,7132,7133,7134,7135,7136,7137

Modify these lines by adding ,5967 at the end of each one, so they look like this:
Helpers=465,633,7132,7133,7134,7135,7136,7137,5967
Helpers6=465,633,3020,7132,7133,7134,7135,7136,7137,5967

This will allow you to add the TSW System Reserved Joins Extender to the Crestron Go definition. Within this extender, you’ll find the Enter Setup join, which will exit the project and return you to the project selection page.

Optional: If you prefer, you can remove ,5967 from the lines after adding the extender, should you wish to revert the change.

Proceed with caution, and always keep backups in case something goes wrong.

The only way you can use custom ring tones is by setting the default ring tone off and then assigning a audio file in a custom project. Even if a -R panel let's you upload a custom project, it won't load it because it will have the Home App running. That says to me, no custom ring tones.
Maybe shutting the ringer off, then triggering a door bell interrupt to ring the panels might work.
