Chapter 1 Product Overview
Introduction
Description
This chapter provides a brief overview of the features and functionality of the
ArmorStart
Bulletin 280E, 281E, and 284E.
The ArmorStart EtherNet/IP™ Distributed Motor Controllers are integrated,
pre-engineered, motor starting solutions. Bulletins 280E and 281E are used for
full-voltage and reversing applications, respectively. Bulletin 284E is used in
variable frequency applications where more precise motor control is needed. The
ArmorStart EtherNet/IP controller offers a robust IP67/UL Type 4/12
enclosure design, which is suitable for water wash down environments.
ArmorStart EtherNet/IP includes an embedded dual port switch that supports
device level ring (DLR) applications. It supports IEEE 1588 end-to-end
transparent clock. This allows synchronization within a distributed network of
devices. Transparent clocks in combination with enhanced or managed Ethernet
switches are able to adjust for network introduced timing delays and improve the
performance of motion applications.
The ArmorStart EtherNet/IP network address can be configured dynamically or
statically via the embedded Web Server. In addition, the controller’s IP address
can be manually set via three IP address switches found on the I/O section of the
device.
® EtherNet/Industrial Protocol (IP) Distributed Motor Controllers,
The controller’s embedded Web Server allows the user to check status,
diagnostics and perform simple device configuration using a standard web
browser. It also supports SMTP protocol which allows the user to configure the
device to send an alert e-mail of potential issues.
The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller is a modular “plug and play”
design that offers simplicity in wiring and installation. The quick disconnects for
the I/O, communications, and motor connections reduce the wiring time and
eliminate wiring errors. The controller offers, as standard, four configurable
(sink/source) DC inputs and two sourcing solid state outputs, to be used with
sensors and actuators respectively, for monitoring and controlling the application
process. The ArmorStart’s light-emitting diode (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.
An Add-on profile for ControlLogix® is available. Add-on profiles streamline the
programming and installation by eliminating the task of individually configuring
the device tags.
The copy and paste function allows easy configuration of multiple ArmorStarts
Controllers. RSLogix™ 5000 revision 17.01 or later is required to implement addon profile support.

Overload Protection
The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller incorporates, as standard,
electronic motor overload protection. This overload protection is accomplished
2
electronically with an I
programmable via the communication network, providing the user with
flexibility.
The Bulletin 280E/281E overload trip class can be selected for class 10, 15, 20
protection. The Bulletin 284E overload trip class is Class 10 only. Ambient
insensitivity is inherent in the electronic design of the overload (refer to
Chapter 11
ArmorStart EtherNet/IP includes embedded switch technology as standard.
Each ArmorStart EtherNet/IP will consume one Common Industrial Protocol
(CIP) connection. The ArmoStart will consume a Class 3 connection when
RSLogix 5000 software displays the AOP.
In general, for a DLR or linear network keep individual segments to 50 nodes
or less. In addition, it is important to reserve a minimum of 10% of available

Product Overview Chapter 1
• Supports IEEE 1588 transparent clock for CIP Motion™ and CIP Sync™
applications
• Supports the management of network traffic to ensure timely delivery of
critical data, that is, QoS and IGMP protocols are supported
Note: DLR ports cannot be used as two network interface cards (NICs)
connected to two different subnets.
Switched vs. Unswitched Control Power Input/Output (I/O) Connections
The voltage at terminals A1/A2 supplies power to the Armorstart outputs.
Removing this power or placing the Armorstart disconnect in the “OFF”
position will disable the outputs.
The unswitched power A3/A2 supplies power to the input and communication
module. This power is not affected by the state of the disconnect switch. This
ensures that anytime the controller can communicate, the state of the inputs
is correct.
Figure 5 - Input and Output Configuration
EtherNet/IP™ Ports
ArmorStart EtherNet/IP includes a dual port Ethernet switch that supports
10/100 Mbps It utilizes a sealed D-coded micro (M12) style Ethernet connector.
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is enabled as the factory
default. Before using your adapter in an EtherNet/IP network you may need
to configure an IP address or set the address statically.
ATTENTION: To avoid unintended operation, the adapter must be assigned a fixed IP
address. If a DHCP server is used, it must be configured to assign a fixed IP address for
your adapter.
Failure to observe this precaution may result in unintended machine motion or loss
of process control.

Electronic Data Sheet (EDS)
Fault Diagnostics
EtherNet/IP devices have electronic data sheets (EDS). These are specially
formatted text files, as defined by the CIP™ Specifications, which represent the
object model of the device. EDS files contain details about the readable and
configurable parameters of the EtherNet/IP device. They also provide
information about the I/O connections the device supports and the content
of the associated data structures. EDS are used by EtherNet/IP device
configuration tools, such as RSNetWorx™ for EtherNet/IP, and data servers
such as RSLinx® Classic.
EDS files for all ArmorStart EtherNet/IP devices can also be uploaded directly
from the device via the web server interface. Rockwell Automation product EDS
files are also available on the internet at: http://www.ab.com/networks/eds.
Fault diagnostics capabilities built in the ArmorStart Distributed Motor
Controller are designed to help you pinpoint a problem for easy troubleshooting
and quick re-starting.
Protection Faults
Protection Faults are generated when potentially dangerous or damaging
conditions are detected. Protection Faults are also known as “Trips.”
