kitControl-InterstartDelayControl

This component delays the start of an HVAC component function.

InterstartDelayControl is available in the HVAC folder of the kitControl palette.

These objects are like BooleanWritables, each with three additional slots for use in interstart delay sequences, as follows:

Delay — Specifies an amount of time to wait before the framework starts next object in the delay.
Master — Specifies the InterstartDelayMaster component in the station that controls the delay sequence.
Start Pending — a read-only Boolean status that indicates if a start is pending (true) or not (false).

Use this component with an InterstartDelayMaster, then link outputs of InterstartDelayControl objects, as needed, to control corresponding Boolean writable points (typically proxy points) for the final interstart control.

No other InterstateDelayControl object using the same delay master can start for delay time after this object starts. If delay is not defined, the framework uses the default delay on the master.

Property	Value	Description
Facets	Config Facets window (defaults to true and false)	Defines text to display for each Boolean value. `trueText` configures the text to describe the state when the component returns `true.` `falseText` configures the text to describe the state when the component returns `false.`
Out	read-only	Displays the result of the configuration.
In1 through In16	StatusBoolean `true` or `false` (default) and null definition	Link to up to 16 points, which provide StatusBoolean input. When null is checked, the value displayed defaults to the incoming value from the device.If you remove the check mark you can configure the `In` value.
Fallback	StatusBoolean `true` or `false` (default) and null definition	Sets the `Out` property’s value to the value of this property when a point returns a null or invalid value at inputs `In1`-`In16`.
Override Expiration	defaults to null	It defaults the value to null.
Min Active Time	hours minutes seconds	Provides for a minimum up time.
Min Inactive Time	hours minutes seconds	Provides for a minimum down time.
Set Min Inactive Time On Start	`true` or `false` (default)	Ensures the minimum inactive time when the station starts.
Delay	hours minutes seconds	Defines the amount of time to elapse before the component starts the next object in the sequence.
Master	file chooser (defaults to null)	Locates the InterstartDelayMaster component in the station.
Start Pending	read only StatusBoolean `true` or `false` (default)	Indicates if a start is pending. `true` indicates the start is pending. `false` indicates no start is pending.
