Distributed Motor Controllers.
DescriptionThe ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers are integrated, pre-
engineered, starters with Bulletin 280/281 for full-voltage and
reversing applications, Bulletin 283 for solid-state motor control, and
Bulletin 284 for variable frequency AC drives applications. The
ArmorStart offers a robust IP67/NEMA Type 4 enclosure design,
which is suitable for water wash down environments. The ArmorStart
products are also offered with NEMA Type 4X rating suitable for
environment wash down with caustic chemical used in the food and
beverage industry. The wash down rating is 1000 psi for the NEMA
Type 4X rated devices.
The modular “plug and play” design offers simplicity in wiring the
installation. The quick disconnects for the I/O, communications, and
motor connections reduce the wiring time and eliminate wiring errors.
The ArmorStart offers, as standard, four DC inputs and two relay
outputs, to be used with sensors and actuators respectively, for
monitoring and controlling the application process. The ArmorStart’s
LED status indication and built-in diagnostics capabilities allow ease
of maintenance and troubleshooting. The optional Hand/Off/Auto
(HOA) keypad configuration allows local start/stop control at the
ArmorStart
Distributed Motor Controller.
The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller offers short circuit
protection per UL508 and IEC 60947. The ArmorStart is rated for
local-disconnect service by incorporating the Bulletin 140 Motor
Protector as the local-disconnect, eliminating the need for additional
components. The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers are
suitable for group motor installations.

@ 480V AC, and up to 5 Hp (4.0 kW) @ 575V AC; 50/60 Hz.
Depending on the catalog number ordered, the ArmorStart
Distributed Motor Controller will accept a control power input of
120VAC, 240VAC or 24V DC.
Mode of OperationBulletin 280/281
Full-Voltage Start
This method is used in applications requiring across-the-line starting,
in which full inrush current and locked-rotor torque are realized. The
ArmorStart Bulletin 280 offers full-voltage starting and the Bulletin
281 offers full-voltage starting for reversing applications.

Time (seconds
Bulletin 283
Soft Start
This method has the most general application. The motor is raised
from an initial torque value to full voltage. The initial torque is
adjustable to 15%, 25%, 35%, or 65% of locked rotor torque. The
motor voltage is gradually increased during the acceleration ramp
time, which can be adjusted from 1 to 45 seconds.
Product Overview1-3
Current Limit Start
This starting mode is used when it is necessary to limit the maximum
starting current. It can be adjusted for 150...600% of full load amps.
Start times are selectable from 1...45 seconds.
Selectable Kick Start
A kickstart, or boost, at the beginning of the start mode is intended to
provide a current pulse of 450% of full load current. The kickstart
time is adjustable from 0.5...1.5 seconds. This allows the motor to
develop additional torque at start for loads which may need a boost to
get started.
Soft Stop
The Soft Stop function can be used with applications that require an
extended coast to rest. When enabled, the voltage ramp down time
can be selected from 1...90 seconds. The motor will stop when the
motor voltage drops to a point where the load torque is greater than
the motor torque.

Inputs
The inputs are single-keyed (2 inputs per connector), which are
sourced from DeviceNet power (24V DC), with LED status indication
- Not available with on the Bulletin 280A/281A, 283A, or 284A.
Outputs
Two dual-key relay output connectors are supplied as standard. The
outputs are sourced from control power (A1 and A2). LED status
indication is also provided as standard for each output.
Gland Plate Entrance
The ArmorStart product offers two different methods of connecting
incoming three-phase and control power to the device. One method
offered is the traditional conduit entrance with a ¾ in. and 1 in.
conduit hole opening for wiring three-phase and control power. The
second method offers connectivity to the ArmorConnect™ power
media. Factory-installed receptacles are provided for connectivity to
both three-phase and control power media.
Motor Cable
With every ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller, a 3-meter
unshielded 4-conductor cordset is provided with each unit as

shielded 4-conductor cordset is provided with each unit as standard.
ArmorStart with DeviceNet Network Capabilities
The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller delivers advanced
capabilities to access parameter settings and provides fault
diagnostics, and remote start-stop control. DeviceNet is the
communication protocol, provided with the ArmorStart Bulletin
280D/281D, 283D, or 284D Distributed Motor Controller.
ArmorStart with ArmorPoint® I/O
The Bulletin 280A/281A, 283A, and 284A ArmorStart Distributed
Motor Controller allows connectivity to the ArmorPoint backplane.
The ArmorPoint I/O system can communicate using DeviceNet,
ControlNet, or EtherNet communication protocols. In addition to the
different network protocols, the ArmorPoint Distributed I/O products
allow the I/O capability to be expanded beyond the standard two
outputs. Two dual-key relay output connectors are supplied as
standard. The outputs are sourced from control power (A1 and A2).
LED status indication is also provided as standard for each output.
When using the ArmorPoint backplane, a maximum of two
ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers can be connected to the

Product Overview1-9
If the I/O capability of the Bulletin 280D/281D, 283D, or 284D
ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller needs to be expanded
beyond the standard four inputs and two outputs, the ArmorStart
Distributed Motor Controller with the DeviceNet communication
protocol can be configured to the ADNX Architecture, in which the
ArmorStart is part of the DeviceNet subnet, using the Bulletin 1738ADNX ArmorPoint Distributed I/O product.
DeviceLogix™
DeviceLogix is a stand-alone Boolean program that resides within the
ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller. DeviceLogix is
programmed using Boolean math operations, such as, AND, OR,
NOT, Timers, Counters, and Latches. DeviceLogix can run as a standalone application, independent of the network. However, 24V DC
must be supplied at the DeviceNet connector to power the inputs.
Peer to Peer Communications (ZIP)
The zone control capabilities of ArmorStart Distributed Motor
Controllers is ideal for large horsepower (0.5…10 Hp) motored
conveyors. The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers have builtin DeviceNet communications, DeviceLogix technology, and the
added Zone Interlocking Parameters (ZIP) which allow one
ArmorStart to receive data directly, from up to four other DeviceNet
nodes, without going through a network scanner. These direct
communications between conveyor zones are beneficial in a merge,
diverter, or accumulation conveyor application.

AC Supply Considerations for
Bulletin 284 units
Ungrounded and High Resistive Distribution Systems
The Bulletin 284 contains protective MOVs that are
referenced to ground. These devices should be disconnected
if the Bulletin 284 is installed on an ungrounded and high
resistive distribution system.
Disconnecting MOVs
To prevent drive damage, the MOVs connected to ground must be
disconnected if the drive is installed on an ungrounded and high
resistive distribution system where the line-to-ground voltages on any
phase could exceed 125% of the nominal line-to-line voltage. To
disconnect the MOVs, remove the jumper shown in Figure 2.33,
Jumper Removal.
1. Before installing the Bulletin 284, loosen four mounting screws.
2. Unplug starter module from the base unit by pulling forward.

Installation and Wiring2-35
Group Motor Installations for USA
and Canada Markets
Wiring and Workmanship
Guidelines
The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers are listed for use with
each other in group installations per NFPA 79, Electrical Standard for
Industrial Machinery. When applied according to the group motor
installation requirements, two or more motors, of any rating or
controller type, are permitted on a single branch circuit. Group Motor
Installation has been successfully used for many years in the USA and
Canada.
Note: For additional information regarding group motor
installations with the ArmorStart Distributed Motor
Controller, see Appendix C.
In addition to conduit and seal-tite raceway, it is acceptable to utilize
cable that is dual rated Tray Cable, Type TC-ER and Cord, STOOW,
for power and control wiring on ArmorStart installations. In the USA
and Canada installations, the following guidance is outlined by the
NEC and NFPA 79.
In industrial establishments where the conditions of maintenance and
supervision ensure that only qualified persons service the installation,
and where the exposed cable is continuously supported and protected
against physical damage using mechanical protection, such as struts,
angles, or channels, Type TC tray cable that complies with the crush
and impact requirements of Type MC (Metal Clad) cable and is
identified for such use with the marking Type TC-ER (Exposed
Run)* shall be permitted between a cable tray and the utilization
equipment or device as open wiring. The cable shall be secured at
intervals not exceeding 1.8 m (6 ft) and installed in a “good workmanlike” manner. Equipment grounding for the utilization equipment
shall be provided by an equipment grounding conductor within the
cable.
*Historically cable meeting these crush and impact requirements
were designated and marked “Open Wiring”. Cable so marked is
equivalent to the present Type TC-ER and can be used.
While the ArmorStart is intended for installation in factory floor
environments of industrial establishments, the following must be
taken into consideration when locating the ArmorStart in the
application: Cables, including those for control voltage including
24V DC and communications, are not to be exposed to an operator or
building traffic on a continuous basis. Location of the ArmorStart to
minimize exposure to continual traffic is recommended. If location to
minimize traffic flow is unavoidable, other barriers to minimize
inadvertent exposure to the cabling should be considered. Routing
cables should be done in such a manner to minimize inadvertent
exposure and/or damage.
2-36Installation and Wiring
Additionally, if conduit or other raceways are not used, it is
recommended that strain relief fittings be utilized when installing the
cables for the control and power wiring through the conduit openings.
The working space around the ArmorStart may be minimized as the
ArmorStart does not require examination, adjustment, servicing or
maintenance while energized. In lieu of this service, the ArmorStart is
meant to be unplugged and replaced after proper lockout/tag-out
procedures have been employed.
Since the ArmorStart is available with a factory installed HOA
keypad option this may require the ArmorStart to be selected and
installed as follows if the application requires frequent use of the hand
operated interface by the equipment operator:
1. They are not less than 0.6 m (2 ft) above the servicing level and
are within easy reach of the normal working position of the
operator.
2. The operator is not placed in a hazardous situation when operat-
ing them.
3. The possibility of inadvertent operation is minimized.
If the operated interface is used in industrial establishments where the
conditions of maintenance and supervision ensure that only qualified
persons operate and service the ArmorStart's operator interface, and
the installation is located so that inadvertent operation is minimized
then other installation locations with acceptable access can be
provided.
Installation and Wiring2-37
DeviceNet Network InstallationThe ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller contains the equivalent
of 30 in. (0.76 m) of DeviceNet drop cable's electrical characteristics
and therefore 30 in. of drop cable must be included in the DeviceNet
drop cable budget for each ArmorStart in addition to actual drop cable
required for the installation.
Other DeviceNet System Design Considerations
The separation of the control power and DeviceNet power is
recommended as a good design practice. This minimizes the load on
the DeviceNet supply, and prevents transients which may be present
on the control power system from influencing the communication
controls. For additional information regarding 24V DC control power
system design, see Appendix D.
Electromagnetic Compatibility
(EMC)
The following guidelines are provided for EMC installation
compliance.
General Notes (Bulletin 284 only)
•The motor Cable should be kept as short as possible in order to
avoid electromagnetic emission as well as capacitive currents
•Conformity of the drive with CE EMC requirements does not
guarantee an entire machine installation complies with CE EMC
requirements. Many factors can influence total machine/
installation compliance.
•Using an EMI filter with any drive rating, may result in relatively
high ground leakage currents. Therefore, the filter must only be
used in installations and solidly grounded (bonded) to the
building power distribution ground. Grounding must not rely on
flexible cables and should not include any form of plug or socket
that would permit inadvertent disconnection. Some local codes
may require redundant ground connections. The integrity of all
connections should be periodically checked.
Grounding
Connect a grounding conductor to the terminal provided as standard
on each ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller. Refer to Table 2.2
for grounding provision location. There is also an externally available
ground terminal. Refer to Figure 2.5, Figure 2.6, and Figure 2.7.
2-38Installation and Wiring
Wiring
Wire in an industrial control application can be divided into three
groups: power, control, and signal. The following recommendations
for physical separation between these groups is provided to reduce the
coupling effect.
•Minimum spacing between different wire groups in the same tray
should be 6 in. (16 cm).
•Wire runs outside an enclosure should be run in conduit or have
shielding/armor with equivalent attenuation.
•Different wire groups should be run in separate conduits.
•Minimum spacing between conduits containing different wire
groups should be 3 in. (8 cm).

Bulletin 280/281 Programmable
Parameters
IntroductionThis chapter describes each programmable parameter and its
function.
Parameter Programming
Each Distributed Motor Controller type will have a common set of
parameters followed by a set of parameters that pertain to the
individual starter type.
Refer to Chapter 8, DeviceNet™ Commissioning for instructions in
using RSNetWorx™ for DeviceNet to modify parameter settings.
Refer to Chapter 11, ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity for
instructions to modify parameter settings when using the Bulletin
280A/281A with the ArmorPoint distributed I/O products.
Important: Resetting the Factory Default Values Parameter 47,
Set to Defaults, allows the installer to reset all parameters
to the factory default values. It also resets the MAC ID to
its factory default after DeviceNet Power is cycled if
switches are set >63.
Important: Parameter setting changes downloaded to the
ArmorStart™ take effect immediately, even during a
“running” status.
Important: Parameter setting changes made in a configuration tool
such as RSNetWorx for DeviceNet do not take effect in
the ArmorStart until the installer applies or downloads
the new settings to the device.

Bulletin 283 Programmable Parameters
IntroductionThis chapter describes each programmable parameter and its
function.
Parameter Programming
Each Distributed Motor Controller type will have a common set of
parameters followed by a set of parameters that pertain to the
individual starter type.
Refer to Chapter 8, DeviceNet™ Commissioning for instructions in
using RSNetWorx™ for DeviceNet™ to modify parameter settings.
Refer to Chapter 11, ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity for
instructions to modify parameter settings when using the Bulletin
283A with the ArmorPoint® distributed I/O products.
Important: Resetting the Factory Default Values Parameter 47,
Set to Defaults, allows the installer to reset all parameters
to the factory default values. It also resets the MAC ID to
its factory default after DeviceNet Power is cycled if
switches are set >63.
Important: Parameter setting changes downloaded to the
ArmorStart® take effect immediately, even during a
“running” status.
Important: Parameter setting changes made in a configuration tool
such as RSNetWorx for DeviceNet do not take effect in
the ArmorStart until the installer applies or downloads
the new settings to the device.
4-2Bulletin 283 Programmable Parameters
Parameter Group ListingThe Bulletin 283 ArmorStart contains eight parameter groups. The
parameters shown in the DeviceLogix™, DeviceNet, Starter
Protection, User I/O, Misc. Parameter, ZIP Parameters, Soft Start
Display, and SoftStart Setup are discussed in this chapter.
