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 Bulletin 284 ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller, a 3 meter
unshielded four-conductor cordset is provided with each unit as standard. If
the optional EMI filter is selected a shielded four-conductor cordset is
provided with each unit as standard.

ArmorStart with DeviceNet Network Capabilities

The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller delivers enhanced control to
access parameter settings and provides fault diagnostics, and remote start-stop
control. DeviceNet is the communication protocol, provided with the
ArmorStart Bulletin 284D Distributed Motor Controller.

ArmorStart with ArmorPoint® I/O

The Bulletin 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 ArmorPoint Distributed I/O product.

If the I/O capability of the Bulletin 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
1738-ADNX 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 stand-alone application, independent of the
network. However, 24V DC must be supplied at the DeviceNet connector to
power the inputs.
1-6

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 built-in 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.

Factory-Installed Options HOA Selector Keypad with Jog Function

The HOA Selector Keypad with Jog Function allows for local start/stop
control with capabilities to jog in forward/reverse motor directions.

An internal contactor is used to switch the electromechanical motor brake
On/Off. The motor brake is powered from the main power circuit. A
customer-accessible 3.0 A fuse is provided to protect the brake cable. A 3
meter 3-pin cable for connection to the motor brake is provided as standard
when this option is selected.

Control Brake Contactor

An internal contactor is used to switch the electromechanical motor brake
On/Off. The motor brake is powered from the control voltage circuit. A
customer accessible 3.0 A fuse is provided to protect the brake cable. One
3-meter 3-pin cable for connection to the motor brake is provided as standard
when this option is selected.

Output Contactor
An internal contactor will be sourced from control voltage to isolate the load
side of the Bulletin 284 ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller. When
control power is applied, the output contactor is closed, and when control
power is removed, the output contact opens. There is no switching element,
such as a relay, in the system. If control power is lost then the output contactor
will open, since its coil power is lost. A sequenced stop involving the output
contactor cannot be performed.
 1-7

Shielded Motor Cable

A 3 meter shielded 4-conductor cordset is provided instead of the 3 meter
unshielded 4-conductor cordset. If the EMI Filter is selected, a 3 meter shielded
4-conductor cordset is provided as standard.

Safety Monitor Option

The Safety Monitor Option allows for independent monitoring of the output
status of the device. The function is implemented using a
normally closed contact which complies with IEC 60947-5-1 for mechanically
linked contacts. Two terminal blocks are provided as the inputs which maybe
used with an external safety circuit. The external safety circuit monitors the
status of the output contactor.

 Installation and Wiring 2-21

Group Motor Installations for The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers are listed for use with
each other in group installations per NFPA 79, Electrical Standard for
USA and Canada Markets 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.

Wiring and Workmanship 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
Guidelines 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 workman-like” 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.
2-22 Installation 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

operating 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 Wiring 2-23

DeviceNet™ Network The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller contains the equivalent
of 30 in. (0.76m) of Device Net drop cable's electrical characteristics and
Installation 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 The separation of the control power and DeviceNet power is required
as a good design practice to minimize DC power ampacity for both the
Design Considerations DeviceNet power supply and the 24V DC control voltage power supply
for the ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers.

Electromagnetic Compatibility The following guidelines are provided for EMC installation compliance.
(EMC)
CE Conformity

Conformity with the Low Voltage Directive and Electromagnetic

Compatibility (EMC) Directive has been demonstrated using
harmonized European Norm (EN) standards published in the Official

General Notes

• 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.

Grounding

Connect a grounding conductor to the terminal provided as standard on

each ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller. Refer to Table 2.B for
grounding provision location. There is also an externally available
ground terminal. Refer to Figure 2.9 and Figure 2.10.

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).

Programmable Parameters for Volts per Hertz

Controllers

This chapter describes each programmable parameter and its function for
Bulletin 284 Volts per Hertz Controllers.

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 6, DeviceNet™ Commissioning, for instructions in using

RSNetWorx™ for DeviceNet™ to modify parameter settings.

Refer to Chapter 9, ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity, for instructions to

modify parameter settings when using the Bulletin 284A with the
ArmorPoint® distributed I/O products.

IMPORTANT Resetting the Factory Default Values Parameter 47, Set to

Defaults, allows the installer to reset all parameter 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.

Programmable Parameters for Sensorless

Vector Controllers

This chapter describes each programmable parameter and its function for
Bulletin 284 Sensorless Vector Controllers.

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 6, DeviceNet™ Commissioning, for instructions in using

RSNetworx™ for DeviceNet™ to modify parameter settings.

Refer to Chapter 9, ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity, for instructions to

modify parameter settings when using the Bulletin 284A with the
ArmorPoint® distributed I/O products.

IMPORTANT Resetting the Factory Default Values Parameter 47, Set to

Defaults, allows the installer to reset all parameter 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.

How Step Logic Works

The step logic sequence begins with a valid start command. A normal
sequence always begins with 240 (Stp Logic 0).

Digit 0: Logic For Next Step — This digit defines the logic for the next step.
When the condition is met the program advances to the next step. Step 0
follows Step 7. Example: Digit 0 is set 3. When Logic In2 becomes active, the
program advances to the next step.

Digit 1: Logic to Jump to a Different Step — For all settings other than F,
when the condition is met, the program overrides Digit 0 and jumps to the
step defined by Digit 2.

Digit 2: Different Step to Jump — When the condition for Digit 1 is met,
the Digit 2 setting determines the next step or to end the program.

Digit 3: Step Settings — This digit defines what accel/decel profile the speed
command will follow and the direction of the command for the current step.
In addition, if a relay or opto output (Parameters 155, 158, and 161) is set to 15
StpLogic Out, this parameter can control the status of that output.

Any Step Logic parameter can be programmed to control a relay or opto

output, but you cannot control different outputs based on the condition of
different Step Logic commands.

Keypad Disable and HOA Parameter 46, Keypad Disable, disables the HAND, JOG, and Dir Arrow
buttons on the HOA keypad. The OFF and AUTO buttons are always
enabled, even if Parameter 46 is set to 1 = disable.

Note: In nearly all instances, if the processor detects multiple buttons are
pressed at the same time, the software interprets this as a “no button pressed”
condition. The only exception to this rule is if multiple buttons are pressed and
one of them is the OFF button. If the OFF button is pressed in combination
with any other buttons, the processor will interpret this as the same as if the
OFF button were pressed by itself.

DeviceNet™ Commissioning

This chapter refers to the Bulletin 284D products. Refer to Chapter 8 for
commissioning the Bulletin 284A products.

Establishing a DeviceNet The ArmorStart® is shipped with a default node address of 63 and Autobaud
enabled. Each device on a DeviceNet network must have a unique node
Node Address address or MAC ID which can be set to a value 0…63. Keep in mind that
most DeviceNet systems use address 0 for the master device (Scanner) and
node address 63 should be left vacant for introduction of new slave devices.
The ArmorStart offers two methods for node commissioning as shown below.

The node address for a device can be changed using software or by setting
hardware switches that reside on the back of the control module.While both
methods yield the same result, it is good practice to choose one method and
deploy it throughout the system.

Node Commissioning Using Hardware

The ArmorStart is shipped with the rotary dials set to a value of (99). If the
switches are set to a value (64) or above, the device will automatically
configure itself to the software node address. If the switches are set to a value
of (63) or less, the device will be at the node address designated by the switch
configuration.

Three-phase power must be applied to the Bulletin 284

6-2 DeviceNet™ Commissioning

To set an address using the hardware rotary dials, simply set the switches to
the desired node address and cycle power to the unit. The Device will restart at
the new address.

Figure 6.1 Rotary Node Address Configuration

LSD
MSD
Node Commissioning Using Software

To set the node address of the ArmorStart using software or other handheld
tools, leave the hardware switches in their default position (99) or insure that
they are set to something greater then (63). With the hardware switches set, use
the software or handheld tool to change the address.
 DeviceNet™ Commissioning 6-3

7. Choose Single Pass Browse from the Network menu to update

RSNetWorx and verify that the node address is set correctly.

System Configuration Produced and Consumed I/O Assemblies (sometimes referred to as Input and
Output Assemblies) define the format of I/O message data that is exchanged
Information between the ArmorStart and other devices on the network. The consumed
information is generally used to command the state of its outputs, and
produced information typically contains the state of the inputs and the current
fault status of the device.

The default Consumed and Produced assemblies are shown below. For
additional formats refer to Electronic Data Sheets, page B-1. The ArmorStart
default configuration varies depending on the type of starter.
 DeviceNet™ Commissioning 6-9

Choosing the size and format of the I/O data that is exchanged by the
ArmorStart is done by choosing a Produced or Consumed Assembly instance
number. These instance numbers are written to the Produced IO Assy or
Consumed IO Assy parameters. The different instances/formats allow for
user programming flexibility and network optimization.

IMPORTANT The Consumed and Produced IO Assy parameter values

cannot be changed while the ArmorStart is online with a
scanner. Any attempts to change the value of these
parameters while online with a scanner will result in the
error message Object State Conflict.

Using Automap Feature The Automap feature available in all Rockwell Automation scanners will
automatically map the information as shown below. If manual mapping is
with Default Input and required, the information below can be used to map a device based on the
Output (I/O) Assemblies default configuration.

Table 6.A Default Input and Output (I/O) Assemblies

Message type Polled

Consumed data size 4 bytes (Rx)
Produced data size 4 bytes (Tx)

Default Input and Output (I/O) Assembly Formats

The I/O assembly formats for the ArmorStart are identified by the values in
Parameter 11 (Consumed IO Assy.) and Parameter 12 (Produced IO Assy.).
These values determine the amount and arrangement of the information
communicated to and from the master scanner. The Tables 6.B and 6.C
identify the default information produced and consumed by the Bulletin 284
devices. For additional formats and advance configurations, refer to Table B.K

Explicit Messaging on DeviceNet™

Logic Controller This chapter is designed to demonstrate programming and explicit message
examples for both the SLC™ family of programmable controllers and
Application with Explicit ControlLogix® family of programmable controllers. The examples will show
Messaging how to develop a program for simple control and use a simple explicit message
to retrieve data that is not automatically acquired based on the input and
output assembly of the device. The user of the device can use this example as a
guide in developing, their own programs.

Below is the RSNetWorx™ view of the simple network used in this example.

Figure 7.1 Simple Network

To assist in the development of the example the network will consist only of
the ArmorStart® and scanner. Therefore the only mapped information in the
scanner will be the ArmorStart. Refer to Chapter 6, DeviceNet™ Commissioning
for assistance in mapping.

Programming the Cat. The following example will utilize the Standard Distributed Motor Controller
and the factory default input and output assembly of 165 and 164. Refer to
No. 1747-SLC™ I/O Mapping Appendix B for additional assembly formats. The default input and output
assembly are shown in Table 7.A with the corresponding data size.

Explicit Messaging with The Cat. No. 1747-SDN module uses the M0 and M1 file areas for data
transfer. Only words 224…256 are used to execute the Explicit Message
SLC Request and Response function. The minimum data size for the explicit
message request is six words and the maximum is 32 words. Tables 7.D and
7.E illustrate the standard format of the explicit message request and response.

Transmission ID (TXID) — The scanner uses this value to track the

transaction to completion, and returns the value with the response that
matches the request downloaded by the SLC-500 processor. The TXID data
size is one byte.

Command — This code instructs the scanner how to administer the request.
A listing of these codes can be found in the Cat. No. 1747-SDN User Manual,
Publication 1747-5.8. The Command data size is one byte.

Status — The Status code provides the communication module’s status and
its response.

Port — The physical channel of the scanner where the transaction is to be

routed. The port setting can be zero (channel A) or one (channel B). The Port
data size is one byte. Note that the Cat. No. 1747-SDN has only one channel,
and so this value is always set to zero.
7-4 Explicit Messaging on DeviceNet™

Size — This identifies the size of the transaction body in bytes. The
transaction body begins at word 3. The maximum size is 58 bytes. The Size
data size is one byte.

Service — This code specifies the type of request being delivered. The Service
data size is one byte.

MAC ID — The DeviceNet network node address of the device for which
the transaction is intended is identified here. The slave device must be listed in
the scanner module’s scan list and be on-line for the Explicit Message
transaction to be completed.

Class — The desired DeviceNet class is specified here.

Instance — This code identifies the specific instance within the object class
towards which the transaction is directed. The value zero is reserved to denote
that the transaction is directed towards the class itself versus a specific instance
within the class.

Attribute — This code identifies the specific characteristic of the object

towards which the transaction is directed. The Attribute data size is one word.

Setting up the Data File Table 7.F lists the most common transaction types (get information and set
information), and the appropriate Service, Class, Instance, and attribute that
corresponds to the type.

Sequence of Events Use the following sequence of events as a guide for establishing explicit
messages in your SLC ladder logic.

1. Put the Explicit Message Request data into an integer (N) file of the
SLC-500 processor.

2. Use the file copy instruction (COP) to copy the Explicit Message
Request data entered in Step 1 to the M0 File, words 224…256.

3. Use the examine-if-closed instruction (XIC) to monitor bit 15 of the

scanner’s Module Status Register for an indication that has received a
response from the E3 Overload Relay.

4. Copy the data from the M1 file, words 224…256, into a file in the
SLC-500 processor using the file copy instruction (COP).

The following example shows the exact data format to perform a Get
Attribute Single request. This message will specifically access Parameter 104,
Output Voltage. The first three words are shown segmented into two bytes,
corresponding to the upper and lower bytes shown in the Explicit Message
Request table (refer to Table 7.D).

Note: The data in the table is shown in a hexadecimal format. Therefore

Parameter 104 decimal is equal to 68 hexadecimal (0x68).

Explicit Messaging with The ControlLogix platform requires significantly less structure to initiate an
explicit message. The explicit message Request and Response is configured
ControlLogix within the MSG function. The MSG function can be found in the
Input/Output tab of RSLogix 5000. Notice that in the ControlLogix program
example, rung 6 is the only required logic to complete the explicit message
request.

Figure 7.3

Setting Up the MSG A tag name must be given to the MSG function before the rest of the
information can be defined. In this example a tag was created with the name
Instruction explicit_mess. After the instruction has been named, click on the gray box
to define the rest of the instruction.

The following example shows the exact data format to perform a Get
Attribute Single request. This message will specifically access Parameter 104,
Output Voltage. See Table 7.F, Common Configuration Examples for
ArmorStart, for additional configurations.

Using DeviceLogix™

DeviceLogix is a stand-alone Boolean program that resides within the

ArmorStart®. The program is embedded in the product software so that there
is no additional module required to use this technology; RSNetWorx™ for
DeviceNet™ is required to program the device.

In addition to the actual programming, DeviceLogix can be configured to

operate under specific situations. It is important to note that the DeviceLogix
program will only run if the logic has been enabled. This can be done within
the Logic Editor of RSNetWorx. The operation configuration is accomplished
by setting the Network Override and Communication Override parameters.
The following information describes the varying levels of operation:

• If both overrides are disabled and the logic is enabled, the only time
DeviceLogix will drive the state of outputs, is if there is an active I/O
connection with a master, i.e., the master is in Run mode. At all other
times DeviceLogix will be running the logic, but will not control the
status of the outputs.
• If the Network Override is enabled and the logic is enabled then
DeviceLogix controls the state of the outputs when the PLC™ is in Run
mode and if a network fault such as Duplicate MAC ID or Module Bus
Off condition occurs.
• If the Communications Override is enabled and the logic is enabled, the
device does not need any I/O connection to run the logic. As long as
there is control power and a DeviceNet power source connected to the
device, the logic will control the status of the outputs.

DeviceLogix Programming DeviceLogix has many applications and the implementation is typically only
limited to the imagination of the programmer. Keep in mind that the
application of DeviceLogix is only designed to handle simple logic routines.

DeviceLogix is programmed using simple Boolean math operators such as

AND, OR, NOT, timers, counters, and latches. Decision making is made by
combining these Boolean operations with any of the available I/O. The inputs
and outputs used to interface with the logic can come from the network or
from the device hardware. Hardware I/O is the physical inputs and outputs
located on the device, such as push buttons and pilot lights, that are connected
to the ArmorStart.

8-1
8-2 Using DeviceLogix™

There are many reasons to use the DeviceLogix functionality, but some of the
most common are listed below:

• Increased system reliability

• Fast update times (1…2 ms possible)
• Improved diagnostics and reduced troubleshooting
• Operation independent of PLC or network status
• Continue to run process in the event of network interruptions
• Critical operations can be safely shut down through local logic

Example

The following example will show how to program a simple logic routine to
interface the ArmorStart with a remote hard-wired start-stop station. In this
case the I/O is wired as shown in the table.

ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity

ArmorStart with ArmorStart for the ArmorPoint Backplane

ArmorPoint
The Bulletin 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 other network communication 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 provided standard. The outputs are sourced from control
voltage power (A1, A2). LED status indication is also provided, as standard
with the ArmorPoint. When using ArmorPoint, a maximum of two
ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers can be connected to the
ArmorPoint Distributed I/O products.

ArmorStart to ArmorPoint Connectivity

Figure 9.1 Connectivity Diagram for one ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller

When connecting to the Bulletin 1738 ArmorPoint Distributed I/O product, a

network adapter and at least one ArmorPoint Digital Output, Digital Input,
Analog, AC and Relay product, or Specialty product must be selected. The
ArmorPoint Distributed I/O product can accommodate up to 63 modules per
network node. The cable that connects the ArmorPoint Distributed I/O to
the ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller is the Bulletin 280A-EXT1. The
280A-EXT1 includes an ArmorPoint bus extension cable and a network
terminating resistor. The network terminating resistor must be connected to
the “ArmorPoint Interface Out” connector.

Details on Using the “ArmorStart Ladder Logic Configurator”

The ArmorStart Ladder Logic Configurator is a ladder logic routine (File
Name: ArmorStart_Configurator.ACD) designed so that under program control,
the entire product family of the ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers can
be configured easily from a Logix based controller. The family of ArmorStart
Distributed Motor Controllers includes the following Bulletin Numbers: 280A,
281A, 283A and 284A. The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers can be
networked over ControlNet or EtherNetIP, when on the appropriate
ArmorPoint backplane. The ladder logic file is designed to be merged into an
existing ladder logic file or it can be used as the basic program and other logic
can be added to it. This document assumes that the reader has an average
knowledge of the use of RSLogix™ 5000 and Logix based controllers. Device
configuration is done inside the Controller tag editor under the Monitor Tags
tab.

Note: The ArmorStart Ladder Logic Configurator (File Name:

ArmorStart_Configurator.ACD) is provided on the CD shipped
with every ArmorStart product with the ArmorPoint
Communications protocol.

Theory of Operation
It is possible to connect an ArmorStart product to the Point I/O based subnet
of the ArmorPoint I/O system. This allows the ArmorStart to be connected to
EtherNetIP and ControlNet, along with the original DeviceNet. The easiest
way to program these ArmorStarts is to use RSNetWorx for DeviceNet
software, bridging through the appropriate network. This ladder logic has
been developed as an alternate method of configuration.

Once the appropriate device configuration is done to a User Defined Structure

in the ladder logic file, a bit will need to be turned on in the logic to trigger a
system wide read of the system. This system wide read, goes out and reads
certain attributes of every parameter of every ArmorStart in the system and
stores the information into a large data array. The first attribute is a flag word
that tells the ladder logic if the parameter is read only. If the read only bit is set,
then the ladder logic will skip the additional attribute reads and will go to the
next parameter. If the parameter is writable, then the logic will read the size,
min. allowed value, max. allowed value, the parameter name, help string and
the raw data of each parameter. These attributes are stored in the data array for
use later when the configuration is written to each ArmorStart. The logic
requires that a system wide read function be completed prior to a system wide
write function being requested.

Note: A system wide read function should be done anytime that a

new ArmorStart is added to the system or an ArmorStart is
updated with a more recent version. This assures that the data
array in the logic matches the total system.
9-4 ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity

Once a system wide read is done, the raw data of the individual parameters in
the data array can be modified and a system wide write function activated from
a bit in the ladder logic. Only parameters that changed will be written to the
ArmorStart devices, and after a write is done the parameter is read back and
stored in the data array for comparison. If the write and reread value do not
match, an Error Report is generated.

If an error occurs for any reason, during a system wide read or write, an error
report will be logged, containing the device and parameter it occurred on. Also
the status and extended status of the message block is logged in case the error
originated there.

I/O Tree Overview

In order to transfer I/O information, the ArmorStart needs to be added to the

I/O tree of the Logix processor. The details of doing this are outside of the
scope of these instructions, but screen captures of the completed
configuration are included below for reference. The configuration below
shows the EtherNetIP card in the Logix chassis slot 1. The 1738-AENT
module is always located at slot zero in the subnet and the ArmorStart device
is located in slot 2 on the subnet. These slots are circled below for you
reference.

Figure 9.3 Logix Processor I/O Tree

The only configuration that the user needs to be concerned with for the
ArmorPoint communication adapter is either the EtherNet IP address or the
ControlNet node address.
 ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity 9-5

Since there currently is no profile for an ArmorStart device in the I\O Tree,
the 1738-MODULE profile needs to be used as a generic profile. The standard
configuration for an ArmorStart 284A, using this profile is shown below.

Figure 9.4 ArmorStart Configuration using 1738-MODULE Profile

Logic Configuration Details

Inside the Configurator file is a large User Defined structure called

Armor_Start_System, which contains all of the data for both the configuration
of the routine, and also storage space for all of the ArmorStart parameters.
With 20 devices, the total memory needed to hold this structure in the Logix
controller is 195K bytes. The diagram below shows the upper part of the
structure and 3 important elements.

Figure 9.5 Configurator File — Armor_Start_System

Armor_Start_System.Max_Devices defaults to 20; because the total number

of devices that the structure is designed to hold initially, is 20. This amount
can be easily changed, but doing so will also necessitate a change to the
size of the System Array structure to match exactly.

Note: The Logix memory that contains the structure will also
change size proportionally.
9-6 ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity

Shown below is the array size that will also need to be changed to match the
Armor_Start_System.Max_Devices value.

Figure 9.6 System Array Size

Armor_Start_System.Max_Parameters defaults to 262, because the

maximum number of parameters in any existing ArmorStart product is 262 or
less. This amount can be easily be changed, and doing so will also
proportionally change the size of the System Array structure and the Logix
memory that holds it. Shown below is the array size that will also need to
be changed to be 1 greater than the
Armor_Start_System.Max_Parameters value. This is because the
parameters are stored by parameter number, and since there is no parameter 0,
that storage location is unused.

Figure 9.7 Array Size Parameter

Armor_Start_System.Num_Devices defaults to zero and is defined as the

total number of ArmorStart products connected to the control system that
need to be configured. It is important that this value be set before the
configuration routine is executed.

It is to the users best advantage to trim the structures down to the minimum
values that match their system because this will save a considerable amount of
Logix processor memory. However, some room should be left in the
structures to handle any future additions of ArmorStart devices to the system.
 ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity 9-7

Adding Devices to the Configuration Structure

Once the three major System level parameters are entered, it is up to the user
to enter in, each of the ArmorStart devices configuration information. These
parameters are defined by the slot in the Logix chassis where the EtherNetIP
or ControlNet communication card resides. The next parameter is the
EtherNetIP IP or ControlNet node address of the 1738 communication
adapter containing the ArmorStart. Lastly, the slot number on the ArmorPoint
subnet where the ArmorStart is connected also needs to be entered. An
optional parameter is a string that can be entered with a description of the
function of the ArmorStart device. Each device will be configured by entering
its data into a different block of the Armor_Start_System.Device[] array.

The Following shows the configuration for a communication card in the Logix
chassis 2, AENT IP address 192.168.1.10 and Point I/O slot 3. The logic
determines whether the network is EtherNetIP or ControlNet depending on
whether the ENET_IP_Addr field is blank or the CNET_Address is zero. One
of these two fields must be filled out for the logic to work correctly. The
Armor_Descriptor field is optional and is used to more easily identify the
ArmorStart as to its function in the system.

Figure 9.8 Communication Card Configuration

Note: To easily edit an ASCII string, click on the string value field
and a small icon with three dots appears.

9-8 ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity

Click on the three dots icon and a String Browser box appears. Modify the text
to what is desired and click on Apply, then click on OK. This works for ALL
strings throughout the entire data array.

Figure 9.10 String Browser Box

Modifying Parameter Data for an ArmorStart

The last configuration that will need to be done eventually, is the writing of a
parameter configuration change for an ArmorStart. This is done by first
equating a particular ArmorStart to a device number in the data array. Again,
this device number is determined by the Logix slot of the communication card,
ETherNetIP or CNet address of the communication adapter and subnet slot
of ArmorStart. The optional, Armor_Descriptor field is extremely handy for
doing a functional lookup of the device number. Once the device number is
determined, the parameter number to be modified, must be obtained. The best
way to do this, is to go to the ArmorStart user manual and get the parameter
number of the value to be modified. The parameter numbers all start with 1
and are numbered sequentially to the last parameter number. The user manual
is important because it will thoroughly describe each parameter, for example,
whether or not a parameter is writable and what the parameter
limits/interpretation are. Once the device and parameter number is obtained,
the next step is to modify the configuration data for that parameter. The
following screen capture shows the data array and particularly, the parameter 8
for Device 0.
 ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity 9-9

Figure 9.11 Data Array

The value to be modified is the .data element of the structure. For reference,
the Min_value, Max_value, and Name_String for the parameter is also in
the structure, so that the user knows what the minimum and maximum
allowable values are for the data. It is important to realize that the data is in a
raw format. In other words, this data could be considered a Boolean, a bit
mask, an ASCII string, an integer, a byte, etc., depending on the definition of
the parameter in the ArmorStart. Also, there could be an implied decimal
point, scaling, and different units involved. It is important that the user fully
understand and verify the raw data value being modified with the user
manual, so that it is correctly interpreted by the ArmorStart or undesired
operation in the ArmorStart may occur.

Once the data is written, during a System Wide Write function, the ladder logic
will read it back and put into the .Last_Read_Value of the structure. This will
be a handy visual verification that the data was written correctly.

Triggering a System Wide Read

Once the system configuration has been done, a System Wide Read must be
initiated. The logic to trigger both a System Wide Read and Write is contained
in a subroutine called Handle_All_Armor. The rungs are shown below for
reference.
9-10 ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity

Figure 9.12 Handle_All_Armor Rungs

To trigger the system wide read, the contact Read_All_Condition_Here

needs to be energized in the ladder logic. This can be done through additional
logic or simply by energizing the bit, on-line, in the RSLogix 5000 software,
Controller Tag monitor screen. The Read_All_Condition_Here is handled
as a one shot inside the logic, but should be de-energized at a later time. This is
so a system wide read is not triggered after every Logix power cycle or for each
transition from Program to RUN mode. When the read finishes successfully,
the Read_All_System_Done_Flag bit energizes in the logic. However, if an
error occurs during the read, the Read_All_System_Error_Flag bit energizes
and the error will be logged into the structure called Error_Report.

Triggering a System Wide Write

Once a successful System Wide Read has been initiated and the
Read_All_System_Done_Flag bit is energized, a System Wide Write can be
triggered. To trigger the system wide write, the contact
Write_All_Condition_Here needs to be energized in the ladder logic. This
can be done through additional logic or simply by energizing the bit on-line, in
the RSLogix 5000 software, Controller Tag monitor screen. The
Write_All_Condition_Here is handled as a one shot inside the logic, but
should be de-energized at a later time. This is so a System Wide Write is not
triggered after every Logix power cycle or for each transition from Program to
RUN mode. When the write finishes successfully, the
Write_All_System_Done_Flag bit energizes in the logic. If an error occurs
during the write, the Write_All_System_Error_Flag bit energizes and the
error will be logged into the structure called Error_Report.

Interpreting the Error Report

If an error occurs during the operation of the ladder logic, either the
Write_All_System_Error_Flag or Read_All_System_Error_Flag bits will
energize depending on which function was being triggered. Information will
be logged inside the data structure Error_Report, that will aid in
troubleshooting the problem. The format of this structure is shown below.
 ArmorStart® to ArmorPoint® Connectivity 9-11

Figure 9.13 Error Report

The first element of this structure is .Local_Error and will contain a number
corresponding to an error interpretation. The error numbers are described in
the next table.

 ArmorStart® ZIP Configuration 10-3

Data Production In a typical ZIP system, each device on the network automatically
produces IO data using “Change of State” (COS) triggering. The
automatic production of this COS data by an ArmorStart is enabled
by setting Parameter 67 (AutoRun ZIP) to a value of 1 = Enable.
Then COS data will be produced automatically when the global ZIP
enable parameter (Zone Ctrl Enable, Parameter 99) is set to the value
of 1 = Enable. Data production will take place at a rate specified by
Parameter 68 (Zone ProducedEPR). The minimum period between
Change of State productions is determined by the value of Parameter
68 (Zone ProducedPIT)

Data Consumption In the ArmorStart data from up to 4 other devices can be consumed
for use in the local logic. The 4 devices whose data is to be consumed
are logically referred to by zone number, i.e. zones 1 – 4. To
configure an ArmorStart to consume data from another node on the
network, the node address or “MacId” is placed in the proper “Zone
MacId” parameter (parameters 70-73). For example to configure an
ArmorStart to consume data for zone 1 from node number 11 on the
network, the value 11 is placed in Parameter 70 (Zone #1 MacId).

Not all zones need to be configured to consume data. If the user

wishes to turn off data consumption for a zone, the value 64 is placed
in the Zone MacId parameter for that zone.

The ArmorStart monitors the frequency at which all consumed data is

received in order to determine the health of each zone’s data
connection. The Zone EPR parameters (parameters 86-89) define the
“Expected Packet Rate” for each of the 4 zone connections.

If no consumed data for a zone is received in 4 times the EPR, then

the zone connection times out, and the value of the corresponding
“Zone Health” parameter (parameters 74-77) is set to the value 1 =
Not Healthy. The “Zone Health” status of each zone is also available
for use in DeviceLogix programs.

Mapping Consumed Data to the Consumed data for the 4 zones is placed in an 8 byte section of the
DeviceLogix Data Table. DeviceLogix Data Table. Individual bits in this section of the
DeviceLogix Data Table can be used in DeviceLogix programs. The
table below shows the organization of the 8 bytes of the data table

The “Zone Mask” parameters (parameters 78-81) select individual

bytes within a consumed message for placement in the DeviceLogix
Data Table. Each single bit in the mask represents a corresponding
byte in the consumed message packet. For example, consider an
ArmorStart that has zone 1 configured to consume data from another
ArmorStart that is producing data of the following format:

6 Device Value Key (high)
The user can choose to place only bytes 1 and 2 of the above
consumed data in the DeviceLogix Data Table by selecting a Zone
Mask value of 00000011 binary as shown in the following
RSNetWorx™ for DeviceNet™ screen:

The “Zone Offset” parameters (parameters 82-85) determine where in

the DeviceLogix Data Table to place the consumed data bytes chosen
for mapping. The “Zone Offset” value corresponds to a byte in the
DeviceLogix Data Table where the data should be placed.
Continuing our example from above, a value of 2 in the “Zone #1
Offset” parameter would result in the masked consumed data bytes
being placed starting at byte 2 in the data table. This would result in
the following ZIP bit assignments:

ZIP 16 = Zone 1: Tripped

shown below:

ZIP Example
Consider the following network with 4 ArmorStarts and a 1799-ZCIO module.
10-6 ArmorStart® ZIP Configuration

We will configure node 10 to consume data as follows:

Zone 1 data will come from node 11

Zone 2 data will come from node 12
Zone 3 data will come from node 13
Zone 4 data will come from node 14.
First we must set up nodes 11-14 to “Auto Produce” data when ZIP is
enabled.

For the ArmorStarts at node 11-13 (shown above) this is done by

setting parameter 67 “AutoRun Zip” to “Enabled”. Note that we will
leave parameters 68 and 69 at their default values so that data will be
produced every 75 msec.
 ArmorStart® ZIP Configuration 10-7

For the 1799-ZCIO module (shown below) this is done by setting parameter 13 “AutoRun Zip” to “Enabled”.

Next we must configure data consumption for the 4 zones in the

ArmorStart at node 10.

First set the “Zone MacId” parameters as shown below:

10-8 ArmorStart® ZIP Configuration

We will leave the “Zone EPR” parameters at their default value of 75

msec. This tells our ArmorStart that if no data for a zone is consumed
for a period of 300 msec (4 times the EPR), the zone connection
should time out and the health status should be set to “Not Healthy”.
We will also leave the “Zone Control” parameters at their default
telling the ArmorStart to consume Change of State Data for each
zone, and to disable data security checking. Since data security
checking is disabled, we can also leave parameters 94-98 at their
default values of 0.

We will set the “Zone Masks” to the value of 00000011 binary. This
tells each zone to map bytes 1 and 2 to the DeviceLogix Data Table.
 ArmorStart® ZIP Configuration 10-9

We will set the “Zone Offsets as shown below. This maps zone 1 data
to byte 0 of the DeviceLogix Data Table, zone 2 data to byte 2 of the
DeviceLogix Data Table, zone 3 data to byte 4 of the DeviceLogix
Data Table and zone 4 data to byte 6 of the DeviceLogix Data Table.

Assuming the ArmorStarts mapped to zones 1 to 3 are producing the

following data:

Diagnostics

This chapter describes the fault diagnostics of the Bulletin 284 ArmorStart®
Distributed Motor Controller. Further, this section describes the conditions
that cause various faults to occur.

Protection Programming Many of the protective features available with the ArmorStart Distributed
Motor Controller can be enabled and adjusted through the programming
parameters provided. For further details on programming, refer to Chapter 3,
Programmable Parameters for Volts per Hertz Controllers, and Chapter 4,
Programmable Parameters for Sensorless Vector Controllers.

Fault Display The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller comes equipped with a built-in
LED status indication which provides four status LEDs and a Reset button.
The LEDs provides status indication for the following:

• Power LED — The LED is illuminated solid green when control

power is present and with the proper polarity.
• RUN LED — This LED is illuminated solid green when a start
command and control power are present.
• Network LED — This bicolor (red/green) LED indicates the status of
the communication link.
• FAULT LED — Indicates Controller Fault (Trip) condition.

The Reset Button provides local fault trip reset.

IMPORTANT Resetting the fault will not correct the cause of the fault
condition. Corrective action must be taken before resetting
the fault.

Clear Fault You may clear a fault using the following methods:

• Remotely via communications — A remote reset will be attempted

upon detection of a rising edge (0 to 1 transition) of the Fault Reset bit
in the various IO assemblies. A remote reset will also be attempted upon
detection of the rising edge of the Fault Reset parameter.
• Locally via the Reset button on the ArmorStart front keypad — A
local reset will be attempted upon detection of a rising edge of the Reset
button on the LED Status Indication keypad.

Troubleshooting

The purpose of this chapter is to assist in troubleshooting the Bulletin 284

ArmorStart® Distributed Motor Controller using the LED Status Display and
diagnostic parameters.

Servicing energized industrial control equipment can be

ATTENTION
hazardous. Electrical shock, burns, or unintentional

!
actuation of controlled industrial equipment may cause
death or serious injury. For safety of maintenance
personnel as well as others who might be exposed to
electrical hazards associated with maintenance activities,
follow the local safety related work practices (for example,
the NFPA70E, Part II in the United States). Maintenance
personnel must be trained in the safety practices,
procedures, and requirements that pertain to their
respective job assignments.

Do attempt to defeat or override fault circuits. The cause of

ATTENTION
the fault indication must be determined and corrected

!
before attempting operation. Failure to correct a control
system of mechanical malfunction may result in personal
injury and/or equipment damage due to uncontrolled
machine system operation.

The drive contains high voltage capacitors that take time to

ATTENTION
discharge after removal of mains supply. Before working on

!
drive, ensure isolation of mains supply from line inputs (R,
S, T, [L1, L2, L3]). Wait three minutes for capacitors to
discharge to safe voltage levels. Failure to do so may result
in personal injury or death.
Darkened display LEDs is not an indication that capacitors
have discharged to safe voltage levels.

implement the installation, startup, and subsequent
maintenance of the system. Failure to comply may result in
personal injury and/or equipment damage.

This drive contains electrostatic discharge- (ESD) sensitive

ATTENTION
parts and assemblies. Static control precautions are

required when installing, testing, servicing, or repairing this
assembly. Component damage may result if ESD control
procedures are not followed. If you are not familiar with
static control procedures, refer to Allen-Bradley
Publication 8000-4.5.2, Guarding against Electrostatic Damage,
or any other applicable ESD protection handbook.

An incorrectly applied or installed drive can result in

ATTENTION
component damage or a reduction in product life. Wiring

!
or application errors, such as undersizing the motor,
incorrect or inadequate AC supply, or excessive ambient
temperatures may result in malfunction of the system.

Fault Definitions Some of the Bulletin 284 ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller faults are
detected by the internal hardware of the ArmorStart, while others are detected
by the internal drive. For internal drive faults, the internal hardware of the
ArmorStart simply polls the drive for the existence of faults and reports the
fault state. No fault latching is done by the internal hardware of the
ArmorStart for these faults. The Pr FltReset Mode parameter (Parameter 23)
determines the Auto Resettability of only the faults that are detected on the
main control board. These faults are listed as “param 23” autoresettable in
12.A. The Auto Resettability of the faults that are detected in the internal drive
is controlled by internal drive parameters. These faults are listed as drive
controlled in 12.A.

a grounded condition. Replace starter module if fault cannot be cleared. This fault cannot be
disabled.
5 — Motor Stalled Drive is unable to accelerate motor. Increase Parameter 139 and/or 167 (Accel Time x) or reduce
(Drive Error Code 6) load so drive output current does not exceed the current by Parameter 189. This fault cannot be
disabled.
6 Control — The ArmorStart has detected a loss of the control power voltage. Check control voltage, wiring
Power and proper polarity. Replace control voltage fuse if necessary. This fault can be disabled and is
disabled by default.
7 IO Fault — Depending on the types of modules in the configuration this error could be generated by a
shorted sensor, shorted input device, wiring mistakes, or a blown output fuse. If this fault
occurs, the offending problem should be isolated or removed prior to restarting the system. This
fault can be disabled and is disabled by default.
8 — Heatsink Over temperature Heatsink temperature exceeds a predefined value. Check for blocked or dirty heatsink fins.
(Drive Error Code 8) Verify that ambient temperature has not exceeded. Replace internal fan. This fault cannot be
disabled.
9 — Over-Current The ArmorStart has detected a voltage imbalance. Check the power system and correct if
(Drive Error Codes 12 and 63) necessary. This fault cannot be disabled.

Internal Drive Faults A fault is a condition that stops the drive. There are two fault types.

Table 12.D Internal Drive Fault Types

Type Description
1 Auto-Reset/Run
When this type of fault occurs, and Parameter 192 (Auto Rstrt Tries) Related
Parameter(s): 155, 158, 161, 193 is set to a value greater than 0, a
user-configurable timer, Parameter 193 (AutoRstrt Delay) Related Parameter(s):
192, begins. When the timer reaches zero, the drive attempts to automatically
reset the fault. If the condition that caused the fault is no longer present, the fault
will be reset and the drive will be restarted
2 Non-Resettable
This type of fault may require drive or motor repair, or is caused by wiring or
programing errors. The cause of the fault must be corrected before the fault can
be cleared.

Automatically Clearing Faults (Option/Step)

Clear a Type 1 Fault and Restart the Drive

1. Set Parameter 192 (Auto Rstrt Tries) to a value other than 0.

2. Set Parameter 193 (Auto Rstrt Delay) to a value other than 0.

Clear an Overvoltage, Undervoltage or Heatsink OvrTmp Fault without

Restarting the Drive

1. Set 192 (Auto Rstrt Tries) to a value other than 0.

2. Set 193 (Auto Rstrt Delay) to 0.

Auto Restart (Reset/Run)

The Auto Restart feature provides the ability for the drive to automatically
perform a fault reset followed by a start attempt without user or application
intervention. This allows remote or unattended operation. Only certain faults
are allowed to be reset. Certain faults (Type 2) that indicate possible drive
component malfunction are not resettable.
12-8 Troubleshooting

Caution should be used when enabling this feature, since the drive will attempt
to issue its own start command based on user selected programming.

CIP Information

Electronic Data Sheets Electronic Data Sheets (EDS) files are specially formatted ASCII files that
provide all of the information necessary for a configuration tool (e.g.,
RSNetWorx™ for DeviceNet™ Revision 3.21 Service Pack 2 or later) to
access and alter parameters of the device. The EDS file contains all of the
device information: number of parameter, groupings, parameter name,
minimum, maximum, and default values, units, data format, and scaling.

EDS files for all the ArmorStart® Distributed Motor Controllers units are
available from the Internet at www.ab.com/networks/eds.

They may also be built automatically by some configuration tools since much
of the information necessary for an EDS file may be extracted from the
ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller.

Discrete Output Point Object Special Requirements

DOP Instances 3 and 4 Special Behavior

There are many sources that can affect an output point’s value: an I/O
message, and explicit message, local logic, network fault and idle conditions,
and protection fault conditions. An output point must know how to select
which source of data to use to drive its value attribute.

An output that is not bound behaves much the same as in the DeviceNet
Specification. One notable addition to DOP behavior for the ArmorStart
implementation is the Protection Fault Action and Protection Fault Value
attributes determine the behavior of the DOP when the ArmorStart faults on
a protection fault.

Besides the sources that can affect output points 3 and 4, DOPs 1 and 2 can be
affected by keypad inputs since they double as the Run Forward and Run
Reverse outputs. This adds complexity to their behavior, so their behavior is
defined in this section separately.

Application of ArmorStart® Controllers
in Group Installation
Objective The following is a method of applying ArmorStart controllers using
group motor installation rules as defined in the National Electric Code
(NEC 2005) and Electrical Standard for Industrial Machinery (NFPA
79-2002).
1. List motors of the group in descending order of motor nameplate
full load current.
2. Select disconnect means.
a. Sum all locked rotor currents of motors that can be started
simultaneously using NEC Table 430.251.
b. Add to that value all the full load currents of any other motors
or loads that can be operating at the same time as the motors
that start simultaneously, using NEC Table 430.250.
c. Use the total current from a and b above to get an equivalent
horsepower value from Table 430.251. That value is the size
of the disconnect means in horsepower. (NEC 430.110)
3. Select fuse or circuit breaker protection: Select fuse or circuit
breaker size for the largest motor per NEC Table 430.52 and add
that ampere value to the total of the full load currents of the rest
of the motors. The final value is the fuse or circuit breaker size
required. (NEC 430.53C)
4. Select wire: Ampacity of wire feeding a group of motors is not
less than 125 percent of the full-load current rating of the highest
rated motor plus the sum of the full load current ratings of all the
motors in the group. (NEC 430.24)
5. The code states that any taps supplying a single motor shall have
an ampacity not less than one third the ampacity of the branch cir-
cuit conductors. (NEC 430.53D) The branch circuit conductors
can be defined as the conductors on the load side of the fuse block
or circuit breaker. This requirement actually defines the size of
the group of motors. For example, if the wire from the fuses or
circuit breaker is AWG #8 with rated ampacity of 50 amps, the
smallest wire you can use as a tap and to the motors is AWG #14
with an ampacity of 20 amps. (NEC Table 310.16 for 75° C wire)
Note that the Bulletin 280-283 ArmorStart controllers will not
accept wire greater than #10 wires at its input terminal blocks.
The ArmorStart cabling to the motor is UL Listed for the control-
ler’s Hp and is supplied with the ArmorStart controller or as an
accessory when longer lengths are required.
C-2 Application of ArmorStart® Controllers in Group Installation

Group motor installations using the ArmorStart in distributed control

applications will be largely dictated by the required motor Hp, their
locations and the practical concerns of wire-cable routing on the
equipment. It should be noted that Group motor installation are
designed to use the actual motor Hp and current ratings in NEC Table
430.250 and not the ArmorStart controller’s rating. This allows for
the possible standardization of ArmorStart controllers in an
installation. An application can be designed using 5 Hp controllers for
all motors between say 5 and 2 Hp and 1 Hp controllers for motors
1 Hp without having to oversize the wiring and short circuit
protection that would result from using the larger ArmorStart
controller’s rating.
In the case of using the Bul 283 VFD-ArmorStart, the actual full-load
current of the motor needs to multiplied by the ratio of the drive’s
ratio of rated input current to output current to arrive at the actual full-
load current. For example, in the case of a 2 Hp VFD-ArmorStart
being used to control a 1 Hp 2.1 A@ 460 V motor, the full-load
amperes to be used for the Group motor calculation would be the 2
Hp VFD-ArmorStart’s (Rated Input Current / Rated Output Current)
x 1 Hp motor’s rated full-load current; (5.7 A / 4.0 A)2.1 A = 3.0 A.
The following is a group motor example calculation for a 460 V
distributed application that requires two 10 Hp DOL-ArmorStart
controlling 10 Hp and 5 Hp motors and four 2 Hp VFD-ArmorStarts
controlling one 2 Hp motor and three 1 Hp motors. From NEC Table
430.250 the full-load current of the respective motors are:

Motor Hp Motor FLC (A)

10 14
5 7.6
2 3.4
1 2.1

 Application of ArmorStart® Controllers in Group Installation C-3

To design the motor circuit using a time delay fuse from NEC Table
430.52 to the rules of NEC 430.53C we start with the largest motor,
10 Hp, and calculate 14 A x 175% = 24.5 A. To this we add the FLC
of the 5 Hp motor, 7.6 A, plus the other calculated drive currents for
the motors controlled by the VFD-ArmorStarts. The calculated drive
currents are given in the following Table:

Motor Motor FLC Drive Input to Output Current Ratio Calculated Drive Current
Hp (A) (See ArmorStart Users Manual) (A)
2 3.4 5.75 A/4.0 A = 1.44 3.4 x 1.44 = 4.89 A
1 2.1 3.45 A/2.3 A = 1.5 2.1 x 1.5 = 3.15 A
1 2.1 3.45 A/2.3 A = 1.5 2.1 x 1.5 = 3.15 A
1 2.1 3.45 A/2.3 A = 1.5 2.1 x 1.5 = 3.15 A

The total current for the fuse ampacity is calculated in the following
Table:

Motor Hp Motor FLC (A) TD Fuse Current (A)

10 14 24.5 A
5 7.6 7.6 A
2 3.4 4.89 A
1 2.1 3.15 A
1 2.1 3.15 A
1 2.1 3.15 A
Total Fuse Current 46.4 A

Therefore the standard fuse available not exceeding 46.4 A is a 40 A

fuse.

To calculate the wire ampacity and therefore the size of the motor
branch conductor we use NEC 430.24 and calculate the sum of 125%
of the largest motor’s FLC plus the FLC of the other motors in the
group. The conductor ampacity calculation is given in the following
Table:

Motor Hp Motor FLC (A) Wire Current (A)

10 14 14A x 1.25 =17.5A
5 7.6 7.6A
2 3.4 4.89 A
1 2.1 3.15 A
1 2.1 3.15 A
1 2.1 3.15 A
Total Fuse Current 39.4 A
C-4 Application of ArmorStart® Controllers in Group Installation

From NEC Table 310.16 we need to use 8 AWG for the motor branch
circuit. Per NEC 430.28 the individual motor tap conductors can be
sized down to 1/3 the ampacity of the trunk but not less than 125% of
the specific motor’s FLC on the tap. This reduction is further
conditionally based on the tap being not more than 25 feet. NFPA 79,
7.2.10.4 and Table 7.2.10.4 restrict the size reduction by the size of
the branch circuit fuse size and tap conductor size. For the above case
we have used a 40 A time-delay fuse. NFPA 79, Table 7.2.10.4
indicates that the smallest tap conductor can be 12 AWG. NEC Table
310.16 for wire ampacity allows 12 AWG (25 A) to be used in all taps
for this application. See the final Group motor circuit design in the
following figure:

 Application of ArmorStart® Controllers in Group Installation C-5

If the Group motor design were carried out with the intent to use an
inverse-time circuit breaker from NEC Table 430.52 to the rules of
NEC 430.53C, we start with the largest motor, 10 Hp, and calculate
14A x 250% = 35 A to this we add the FLC of the 5 Hp motor, 7.6 A,
plus the other calculated drive currents for the motors controlled by
the VFD-ArmorStarts. The calculated drive currents are given in the
following table:

Motor Hp Motor FLC (A) Inverse-Time CB Current (A)

10 14 35 A
5 7.6 7.6 A
2 3.4 4.89 A
1 2.1 3.15 A
1 2.1 3.15 A
1 2.1 3.15 A
Total Fuse Current 56.94 A

Therefore for the standard inverse-time circuit breaker available not

exceeding 56.94 A we need to use a 50 A inverse-time circuit
breaker. This design will also allow the use of 8 AWG for the motor
branch circuit. Continuing than and applying NEC 430.28 the
individual motor tap conductors can be sized down to 1/3 the
ampacity of the trunk and following the restrictions in NFPA 79,
7.2.10.4 and Table 7.2.10.4 for this case where we have used a 50 A
inverse-time circuit breaker. NFPA 79, Table 7.2.10.4 indicates that
the smallest tap conductor can now be 14 AWG. See the above figure
for this Group motor circuit design.

The above method instructs one on applying ArmorStart controllers

using group motor installation rules. Because of the ArmorStart’s
capability, rating and Listing this method provides the minimum
branch circuit wire and SCPD protection size that can be used. The
Armor Start has been evaluated and tested for group motor
installations when being feed by a power source having 65,000 Amps
available fault current. The ArmorStart is not a listed combination
motor controller, however, but is Listed as Industrial Control
Equipment per UL 508 for group motor installations per NFPA 79.
Under this Listing the NEC and actually NFPA 79 puts an upper
bound on the SCPD to be used. That upper bound is dictated by the
maximum ratings in Table 7.2.10.4.
C-6 Application of ArmorStart® Controllers in Group Installation

The rules and allowances for sizing of the over current protection for
NFPA 79 motor groups is covered by 7.2.10.4, Table 7.2.10.4 and
Table 13.5.6. These rules in Tables 7.2.10.4 and 13.5.6 are intended
to limit the maximum SCPD for a group. Therefore each ArmorStart
controller with its factory-supplied output motor cable is suitable for
single-motor or multiple-motor group installations on industrial
machinery when installed according to NFPA 79, 2002. The
controller and output motor cable have been evaluated as a single
system. The maximum over current device rating or setting is limited
to the value in Table 7.2.10.4 for the smallest user-supplied input line
conductor or by the controller’s maximum ratings.

The Listed ArmorStart motor controllers with their factory supplied

motor cable carries the marked maximum ratings shown in the
following table.

Max. Ratings
Voltage 480Y/277 480 600Y/347 600
Sym. Amps RMS 65 kA 65 kA 30 kA 30 kA

ArmorConnect ➋ 60 A ➊ 60 A ➊ 60 A ➊ 60 A ➊

➊ Class J, CC, and T fuses only.

➋ ArmorConnect power media and tees may only be used with fuses.

To summarize, the design of the ArmorStart controllers in group

motor applications is to be carried out as described above. The user
supplied line side SCPD and wiring has to meet the minimum
requirements determined above, however, the SCPD is required to
protect the ArmorStart controller’s associated line side wiring only
and can be increased to the values allowed in the maximum ratings
table above. Because the maximum line side conductor for the
ArmorStart is #10 AWG this is the maximum tap wire or daisy-chain
wiring that can be used at the ArmorStart terminals. For trunk and tap
line side wiring the 1/3 wire size rule can be used to take advantage of
the ArmorStart’s maximum input ratings.

A benefit to these ArmorStart rating and the above design process

using NFPA rules is that industrial equipment that utilizes several
group motor installations on different branch circuits can standardize
the size of the SCPD and the branch wiring for all the branch circuits
of the installation as long as they do not exceed the maximum ratings
of Table 7.2.10.4 and the ArmorStart, whichever is less.
 Appendix D
24V DC Control Design Considerations
ArmorStart® DC Control Voltage The maximum distance that an ArmorStart can be located from a
Application Information nominal 24V DC supply is determined by the inrush current
requirements (3.1A for 100 msec) of the 280, 281 and 283
ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers. The following table gives
the maximum distance from the power source that a single
ArmorStart can be placed.

Table D.1 Wire Gauge Sizes

Wire Gauge mm2 Meters Feet

#16 1.31 38 125
#14 2.08 62 205
#12 3.31 100 325
#10 5.26 158 520

In systems with multiple ArmorStarts (280,281 and 283) where more

than one unit will be commanded to start at the same time, provisions
must be made to account for maximum inrush current (3.1 A for 100
msec for each unit). The dc power supply and distribution system
needs to be of sufficient capacity and the wire gauge of sufficient size
to handle the maximum current required. The total capacity of the
system also includes any additional loads connected to the
ArmorStart I/O outputs (max. 2 A for each ArmorStart).

The maximum distance can still be utilized if each of the ArmorStarts

that will be commanded to start simultaneously is wired directly back
to the dc power supply, or if a 100ms delay between consecutive starts
can be insured. When more than one ArmorStart is commanded to
pick up at the same time, the length of each wire segment in the
system should be multiplied by the number of units that can
simultaneously pick up through that section of wire. This calculation
represents the equivalent starting distance. The sum of the equivalent
starting distances should be less than the maximum distance allowed
for the selected gauge.

Example 1 – Conveyor Line Configuration

We want to wire up five sections of Conveyor (See Figure D.1). Each

section of conveyor has a conveyor motor and a diverter motor. Let’s
assume that they are 50 feet apart. The conveyor motors may be
started in sequence, but it is possible that all 5 of the diverter motors
could start simultaneously. All controllers are 280 ArmorStart units
with the HOA keypad. Let us assume that the conveyor motors are
sequenced on and are running before the diverters start.

Based on this calculation, there is no wire gauge that can be taken 750
feet, so the fifth section is required to have its own run.

Therefore, Run 1 needs to be #10 AWG, while Run 2 can be either

#12 AWG or #10 AWG.

Therefore, both runs can be #14 AWG. The controllers on section 3

are considered to have no length since the power supply is very close

24V DC Power Supply Capacity Sizing

The 24V DC power supply current rating required for an ArmorStart

system can be calculated by the following formula:

I supply = N*.25A + K*3A + J*.3A + L*.425A + M

N= No. of 280/281 ArmorStart units with the HOA plus 283 ArmorStart units
K= No. of ArmorStart (280,281and 283) that will be commanded start simultaneously, K = 1 minimum
J= No. of ArmorStart (280,281and 283) that will be commanded to hold in at any time
L= No. of 284 ArmorStart Units
M= Current drawn by customer loads

Example – Calculation of 24V DC Power Supply Requirements

Size the power supply for Example 1 – Conveyor Line Configuration.

Each starter has a .1A customer load.

I supply = 10*.25 +5*3 + 5*.3 + 0*.425 + 10*.1

I supply = 2.5 + 15 + 1.5 + 0 + 1 = 20A

D-4 24V DC Control Design Considerations

System Design Considerations The use of #16 AWG requires more consideration when determining
When Using 16 AWG Control Wiring the number and location of the power supplies since it is effectively
limited to 125 feet. Re-working example 1 using #16 AWG shows
that two power supplies will be required.

Other System Design To minimize the dc power ampacity requirements staggering the
Considerations starting (sequenced on) of the ArmorStarts is recommended but only
if the application does not require all the ArmorStarts to be
commanded to start at the same time.

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.

PID Setup

PID Loop The Bulletin 284 ArmorStart® Distributed Motor with sensorless vector
control has a built-in PID (proportional, integral, differential) control loop.
The PID loop is used to maintain a process feedback (such as pressure, flow,
or tension) at a desired set point. The PID loop works by subtracting the PID
feedback from a reference and generating an error value. The PID loop reacts
to the error, based on the PID Gains, and outputs a frequency to try to reduce
the error value to 0. To enable the PID loop, Parameter 232 (PID Ref Sel)
must be set to an option other than 0 PID Disabled.

Exclusive Control and Trim Control are two basic configurations where the
PID loop may be used.

Exclusive Control

In Exclusive Control, the Speed Reference becomes 0, and the PID Output
becomes the entire Freq Command. Exclusive Control is used when
Parameter 232 (PID Ref Sel) is set to option 1, 2, 3, or 4. This configuration
does not require a master reference, only a desired set point, such as a flow rate
for a pump.

Example

• In a pumping application, the PID Reference equals the Desired System

Pressure set point.
• The Pressure Transducer signal provides PID Feedback to the drive.
Fluctuations in actual system pressure, due to changes in flow, result in a
PID Error value.
• The drive output frequency increases or decreases to vary motor shaft
speed to correct for the PID Error value.
• The Desired System Pressure set point is maintained as valves in the
system are opened and closed causing changes in flow.
• When the PID Control Loop is disabled, the Commanded Speed is the
Ramped Speed Reference.

Trim Control

In Trim Control, the PID Output is added to the Speed Reference. In Trim
mode, the output of the PID loop bypasses the accel/decel ramp as shown.
Trim Control is used when Parameter 232 (PID Ref Sel) is set to option 5, 6, 7,
or 8.

Example

• In a winder application, the PID Reference equals the Equilibrium set

point.
• The Dancer Pot signal provides PID Feedback to the drive.
Fluctuations in tension result in a PID Error value.
• The Master Speed Reference sets the wind/unwind speed.
• As tension increases or decreases during winding, the Speed Reference
is trimmed to compensate. Tension is maintained near the Equilibrium
set point.

G-4 PID Setup

PID Reference and Parameter 232 (PID Ref Sel) is used to enable the PID mode (Parameter 232 ¦
0 PID Disabled) and to select the source of the PID Reference. If A132 (PID
Feedback Ref Sel) is not set to 0 PID Disabled, PID can still be disabled by select
programmable digital input options (Parameters 151…154) such as Jog, Local,
or PID Disable.

Table G.A Parameter 232 (PID Ref Sel) Options

Option Description
0 Disables the PID loop (default setting)
PID Disabled
1 Selects Exclusive Control. Parameter 137 (PID Setpoint) will be used to
PID Setpoint set the value of the PID Reference
4 Selects Exclusive Control. The reference word from a communication
Comm Port network DeviceNet™ becomes the PID Reference. The value sent over
the network is scaled so that Parameter 135 (Maximum Freq) x 10 =
100% reference. For example, with (Maximum Freq) = 60 Hz, a value of
600 sent over the network would represent 100% reference.
5 Selects Trim Control. Parameter 137 (PID Setpoint) will be used to set
Setpnt, Trim the value of the PID Reference.
8 Selects Trim Control. The reference word from a communication
Comm, Trim network DeviceNet becomes the PID Reference. The value sent over
the network is scaled so that Parameter 135 (Maximum Freq) x 10 =
100% reference. For example, with (Maximum Freq) = 60 Hz, a value of
600 sent over the network would represent 100% reference.

Parameter 233 (PID Feedback Sel) is used to select the source of the PID
feedback.

Table G.B Parameter 233 (PID Feedback Sel) Options

Option Description
2 The Consumed Assembly (Instance 164 — Default Consumed Inverter
Comm Port Type Distributed Motor Controller) from a communication network (see
page B-11 for details on the Consumed Assembly) which becomes the
PID Feedback. The value sent over the network is scaled so that
Parameter 135 (Maximum Freq) x 10 = 100% Feedback. For example,
with (Maximum Freq) = 60 Hz, a value of 600 sent over the network
would represent 100% Feedback.
 PID Setup G-5

PID Deadband

Parameter 238 (PID Deadband) is used to set a range, in percent, of the PID
Reference that the drive will ignore.

Example

• (PID Deadband) is set to 5.0

• The PID Reference is 25.0%
• The PID Regulator will not act on a PID Error that falls between 20.0
and 30.0%

PID Preload

The value set in Parameter 239 (PID Preload), in Hertz, will be pre-loaded into
the integral component of the PID at any start or enable. This will cause the
drive’s frequency command to initially jump to that preload frequency, and the
PID loop starts regulating from there.

Figure G.5
PID Enabled

PID Pre-load Value

PID Output

Freq Cmd

PID Pre-load Value > 0

PID Limits

Parameter 230 (PID Trim Hi) and Parameter 231 (PID Trim Lo) are used to
limit the PID output and are only used in trim mode. (PID Trim Hi) sets the
maximum frequency for the PID output in trim mode. (PID Trim Lo) sets the
reverse frequency limit for the PID output in trim mode. Note that when the
PID reaches the Hi or Lo limit, the PID regulator stops integrating so that
windup does not occur.
G-6 PID Setup

PID Gains

The proportional, integral, and differential gains make up the PID regulator.

• Parameter 234 (PID Prop Gain)

The proportional gain (unitless) affects how the regulator reacts to the
magnitude of the error. The proportional component of the PID
regulator outputs a speed command proportional to the PID error. For
example, a proportional gain of 1 would output 100% of maximum
frequency when the PID error is 100% of the analog input range. A
larger value for (PID Prop Gain) makes the proportional component
more responsive, and a smaller value makes it less responsive. Setting
(PID Prop Gain) to 0.00 disables the proportional component of the
PID loop.

• Parameter 235 (PID Integ Time)

The integral gain (units of seconds) affects how the regulator reacts to
error over time and is used to get rid of steady state error. For example,
with an integral gain of 2 seconds, the output of the integral gain
component would integrate up to 100% of maximum frequency when
the PID error is 100% for 2 seconds. A larger value for (PID Integ
Time) makes the integral component less responsive, and a smaller value
makes it more responsive. Setting (PID Integ Time) to 0 disables the
integral component of the PID loop.

• Parameter 236 (PID Diff Rate)

The Differential gain (units of 1/seconds) affects the rate of change of

the PID output. The differential gain is multiplied by the difference
between the previous error and current error. Thus, with a large error
the D has a large effect and with a small error the D has less of an effect.
This parameter is scaled so that when it is set to 1.00, the process
response is 0.1% of (Maximum Freq) when the process error is
changing at 1%/second. A larger value for (PID Diff Rate) makes the
differential term have more of an effect and a small value makes it have
less of an effect. In many applications, the D gain is not needed. Setting
(PID Diff Rate) to 0.00 (factory default) disables the differential
component of the PID loop.
 PID Setup G-7

Guidelines for Adjusting the PID Gains

1. Adjust the proportional gain. During this step it may be desirable to

disable the integral gain and differential gain by setting them to 0. After
a step change in the PID Feedback:

• If the response is too slow increase Parameter 234 (PID Prop Gain).
• If the response is too quick and/or unstable (see Figure G.6),
decrease Parameter 234 (PID Prop Gain).
• Typically, Parameter 234 (PID Prop Gain) is set to some value below
the point where the PID begins to go unstable.

2. Adjust the integral gain (leave the proportional gain set as in Step 1).
After a step change in the PID Feedback:
• If the response is too slow (see Figure G.7), or the PID Feedback
does not become equal to the PID Reference, decrease
Parameter 235 (PID Integ Time).
• If there is a lot of oscillation in the PID Feedback before settling out
(see Figure G.8), increase Parameter 235 (PID Integ Time).

3. At this point, the differential gain may not be needed. However, if after
determining the values for Parameter 234 (PID Prop Gain) and
Parameter 235 (PID Integ Time):
• Response is still slow after a step change, increase Parameter 236
(PID Diff Rate).
• Response is still unstable, decrease Parameter 236 (PID Diff Rate).

The following figures show some typical responses of the PID loop at
different points during adjustment of the PID Gains.

Step Logic, Basic Logic and Timer/Counter

Functions

Four Bulletin 284 ArmorStart® logic functions provide the capability to

program simple logic functions without a separate controller.

• Step Logic Function

Steps through up to eight preset speeds based on programmed logic.

Programmed logic can include conditions that need to be met from
digital inputs programmed as Logic In1 and Logic In2 before stepping
from one preset speed to the next. A timer is available for each of the
eight steps and is used to program a time delay before stepping from
one preset speed to the next. The status of a digital output can also be
controlled based on the step being executed.

• Basic Logic Function

Up to two digital inputs can be programmed as Logic In1 and/or Logic

In2. A digital output can be programmed to change state based on the
condition of one or both inputs based on basic logic functions such as
AND, OR, NOR. The basic logic functions can be used with or without
step logic.

• Timer Function

A digital input can be programmed for Timer Start. A digital output can
be programmed as a Timer Out with an output level programmed to the
desired time. When the timer reaches the time programmed into the
output level the output will change state. The timer can be reset via a
digital input programmed as Reset Timer.

• Counter Function

A digital input can be programmed for Counter In. A digital output can
be programmed as Counter Out with an output level programmed to
the desired number of counts. When the counter reaches the count
programmed into the output level the output will change state. The
counter can be reset via a digital input programmed as Reset Counter.

Step Logic Using Timed To activate this function, set Parameter 138 (Speed Reference) to 6 Stp Logic.
Three parameters are used to configure the logic, speed reference, and time for
Steps each step.

• Logic is defined using Parameters 240…247 (Stp Logic x).

• Preset Speeds are set with Parameters 170…177 (Preset Freq x).
• Time of operation for each step is set with Parameters 250…257 (Stp
Logic Time x).

The direction of motor rotation can be forward or reverse.

Step Logic Sequence

• Sequence begins with a valid start command.

• A normal sequence begins with Step 0 and transitions to the next step
when the corresponding step logic time has expired.
• Step 7 is followed by Step 0.
• Sequence repeats until a stop is issued or a fault condition occurs.

Step Logic Using Basic Digital input and digital output parameters can be configured to use logic to
transition to the next step. Logic In1 and Logic In2 are defined by
Logic Functions programming Parameters 151…154 …Digital Inx Sel… to Option 23 Logic
In1 or Option 24 Logic In2.
 Step Logic, Basic Logic and Timer/Counter Functions H-3

Example

• Run at Step 0.
• Transition to Step 1 when Logic In1 is true.

Logic senses the edge of Logic In1 when it transitions from Off to On.
Logic In1 is not required to remain On.

• Transition to Step 2 when both Logic In1 and Logic In2 are true.

The drive senses the level of both Logic In1 and Logic In2 and
transitions to Step 2 when both are On.

• Transition to Step 3 when Logic In2 returns to a false or Off state.

Inputs are not required to remain in the On condition except under the
logic conditions used for the transition from Step 2 to Step 3.

The step time value and the basic logic may be used together to satisfy
machine conditions. For instance, the step may need to run for a minimum
time period and then use the basic logic to trigger a transition to the next step.

Timer Function Digital inputs and outputs control the timer function and are configured with
Parameters 151…154 (Digital Inx Sel) set to 18 Timer Start and 20 Reset
Timer.

Digital outputs (relay and opto type) define a preset level and indicate when
the level is reached. Level Parameters 156 (Relay Out Level), 159 (Opto Out1
Level), and 162 (Opto Out2 Level) are used to set the desired time in seconds.

Parameters 155 (Relay Out Sel), 158 (Opto Out1 Sel), and 161 (Opto Out2
Sel) are set to option 16 Timer Out and cause the output to change state when
the preset level is reached.

Counter Function Digital inputs and outputs control the counter function and are configured
with Parameters 151…154 (Digital Inx Sel) set to 19 Counter In and 21 Reset
Counter.

Digital outputs (relay and opto type) define a preset level and indicate when
the level is reached. Level Parameters 156 (Relay Out Level), 159 (Opto Out1
Level), and 162 (Opto Out2 Level) are used to set the desired count value.

Parameters 155 (Relay Out Sel), 158 (Opto Out1 Sel), and 161 (Opto Out2
Sel) are set to 17 Counter Out which causes the output to change state when
the level is reached.

Example

• A photo eye is used to count packages on a conveyor line.

• An accumulator holds the packages until five are collected.
• A diverter arm redirects the group of five packages to a bundling area.
• The diverter arm returns to its original position and triggers a limit
switch that resets the counter.
• Parameters are set to the following options:
– 151 (Digital In1 Sel) set to 19 to select Counter In
– 152 (Digital In2 Sel) set to 21 to select Reset Counter
– 155 (Relay Out Sel) set to 17 to select Counter Out
