By palette folder, types of kitControl components include:

• ControlPalette

  Equivalent to contents of control palette, including subfolders Points, Extensions, and Triggers. For more details, see the NiagaraAX-3.x User Guide sections “About control points”, “About control extensions”, and “About control triggers”.

• Alarm

  Contains 3 extensions for alarming. One is expressly for a LoopPoint, for “setpoint-deviation” alarming. The others provide alarming options for a Boolean point with DiscreteTotalizerExt. A fourth component provides alarm count monitoring of any Alarm Class, and includes a boolean “relay” output. For more details, see Alarm.

• Constants

  Contains 4 components, one for each data category. Each provides a linkable status-type output, and a “Set” action for changing value. See Constants for details.

• Conversion

  Contains 19 components that mainly convert status values to simple values, and vice versa. Also has other special conversion types. See Conversion for details.

  Starting in AX-3.6, conversion components may be unnecessary—as linking directly between status values and simple values, or even between different data types, is supported. For details, please refer to the Engineering Notes II document NiagaraAX Conversion Links.

• Energy

  Contains 10 components for typical energy functions, such as degree day calculation and electrical demand limiting. See Energy.

• HVAC

  Contains 9 components for typical HVAC functions, such as for interstart delay, lead-lag control and sequence control. Included are a Tstat (thermostat) and LoopPoint (PID loop) component. See HVAC.

• Latches

  Contains 4 latch components, one for each data category. See Latches.

• Logic

  Contains 10 logic components, each with a StatusBoolean output. Starting in AX-3.6, an example “Expr” (BQL Expression) component is also included—named “ExprLogic”. For more details, see Logic.

• Math

  Contains 23 components for processing one or more numeric input values, and producing a StatusNumeric output. Starting in AX-3.6, an example “Expr” (BQL Expression) component is also included—named “ExprMath”. See Math for more details.

• Selects

  Contains 4 select components, one for each data category. See Selects.

• String

  Contains 6 components with one or more StatusString inputs. See String.

• Timer

  Contains 5 components: 3 timer types (BooleanDelay, NumericDelay, and OneShot), and 2 “absolute time” types (CurrentTime, TimeDifference). See Timer.

• Util

  Contains 16 various utility components, including an “Expr” (BQL Expression) component added starting in AX-3.6. See Util for more details.
