About platform differences

Depending on the platform type opened, some platform views differ. There are three main categories of platforms, by OS (operating system) used. In order of frequency, these include:
  • QNX-based (JACE controllers)
  • Windows-based hosts ( Supervisor hosts)
  • Linux-based Supervisor

There are various controller host models, each with a “model” string descriptor. For a list of host models that support NiagaraAX, current with this document, see “Models of platforms”.
