In general, an HVAC system may consist of multiple stages, which might be independently defined for both heating and cooling subsystems. The number of stages might vary, but usually up to two stages are used. These are referred to as 'primary' and 'secondary' stages.

Frequency
"Frequency" is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit time. The repetition of the events may be periodic (that is. the length of time between event repetitions is fixed) or aperiodic (i.e. the length of time between event repetitions varies). Therefore, we distinguish between periodic and aperiodic frequencies. In the SI system, periodic frequency is measured in hertz (Hz) or multiples of hertz, while aperiodic frequency is measured in becquerel (Bq). In spectroscopy, v is mostly used. Light passing through different media keeps its frequency, but not its wavelength or wavenumber.

This state type expresses the state of storm. Usually, this state is related to the protection of shading equipment such as blinds and slats, which can be damaged due to high wind speeds. In case of storm, this equipment might be put into a protective position, which prevents it from being used for shading purposes. This state type is the inverse of the 'No Storm' state type.

An inactive alarm means that the alarm state was not triggered. Finally, an inactive situation means that a certain state has not been reached. The tag 'Inactive State' is often used for situations that feature an enumeration of possible states (e.g. operational states, control modes, HVAC modes, ...) to make a boolean statement about one of these states. The state type 'Inactive State' is the inverse of the 'Active State' state type.
