Important User Information
Solid-state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of
electromechanical equipment. Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation
and Maintenance of Solid State Controls (Publication SGI-1.1 available from your
local Rockwell Automation sales office or online at http://www.rockwellautomation.
com/literature/) describes some important differences between solid-state
equipment and hard-wired electromechanical devices. Because of this difference,
and also because of the wide variety of uses for solid-state equipment, all persons
responsible for applying this equipment must satisfy themselves that each
intended application of this equipment is acceptable.
In no event will Rockwell Automation, Inc. be responsible or liable for indirect or
consequential damages resulting from the use or application of this equipment.
The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative
purposes. Because of the many variables and requirements associated with any

ArmorStart®EtherNet/IP™Communications & Control Programming Manual
Introduction
This programming manual provides the information required to configure,
program, and control the ArmorStart EtherNet/IP Distributed Motor
Controller. The ArmorStart provides integration within the architecture to
deliver information with enhanced control and access to parameters, status, and
diagnostics for faster response to changing environments.
Included in this programming manual is a section which will show the user how
to add an ArmorStart Add-On-Profile (AOP) to RSLogix™ 5000. The user will
become familiar with the AOP tabs and how they can be used to connect, obtain
status and configure the ArmorStart. This programming manual will also show
the user how to access the internal web server via the web browser. It reviews the
functionality of the web server which includes accessing the parameters,
diagnostics, and administrative settings.
The user will learn how to do basic control of the Bulletin 280E or Bulletin 284E
ArmorStart EtherNet/IP unit using Ladder Logic in RSLogix™ 5000. This
method of control occurs over the EtherNet network using a Programmable
Logic Controller (PLC). There is also a section which focuses on utilizing
RSLogix™ 5000 to configure the ArmorStart via the AOP parameter list.
The Hand/Off/Auto (HOA) control in Bulletins 280E and 284E ArmorStart
units, is discussed in this publication. Depending on the bulletin number of the
product, the HOA allows the user to run the motor forward (Bulletins 280E and
284E), stop the motor (Bulletins 280E and 284E), run the motor in reverse
(Bulletin 284E), or jog the motor both forward and reverse (Bulletin 284E).
Appendix A provides additional information regarding diagnostics and faults,
including clearing faults. Appendix B provides additional information in regards
to IP Address configuration using the BootP/DHCP Server, the Rotary Network
Address Switches, and the web browser. Appendix C provides an example on
how to perform a Type 1 Reset which is necessary to reset the web browser login
and password. The user should be familiar with and have access to RSLogix™
5000 version 17.01 or later. This programming software package is referred to
often in this manual.

Chapter 1
Adding an ArmorStart to RSLogix 5000
This section will show you how to add an ArmorStart Add-On-Profile (AOP) to
RSLogix 5000. It is assumed that you have downloaded and installed the AOP so
that the RSLogix 5000 software can fully support the ArmorStart Ethernet/IP.
The AOP can be downloaded from: http://support.rockwellautomation.com/
controlflash/LogixProfiler.asp.
1. Open RSLogix 5000 by double-clicking on the icon on your desktop.
2. Select File>New to create a new project.

3. Enter the name of the project and select your controller from the Type
drop down menu. For this example, a Cat. No. 1769-L35E and software
revision 19 will be used. Then click OK.
4. To add a new module to the tree, right-click on Ethernet and select
New Module. This allows you to add a new ArmorStart to the Logix
Project.

5. Select the ArmorStart in your application and click OK.
6. The AOP is shown below. Enter a Name for this ArmorStart and an
Ethernet address. For this example, the Private Network setting will be
used. This should be set to match the IP address switch setting on the
ArmorStart. Then press OK.
Note: Refer to Using the Rotary Network Address Switches in
Appendix B to set an IP address on the device.
