Hardware Selection
In this chapter, you will select six ArmorStart controllers including peripherals by using the Rockwell
Automation Integrated Architecture Builder (IAB) software. This graphical software tool is used to configure
Logix-based automation systems. IAB helps you select hardware and generate a bill of material (BOM) for
applications that include I/O, networks, ArmorStart controllers, On-Machine cabling, wiring, and other
devices. Outputs include BOM and reports with graphics. You can install IAB and ProposalWorks from the
Configuration and Selection Tools page which pops up after registering the CD.
Before You Begin
Collect specific application data, that may include the following:
• Control and line power
• Networks used
• Transmission type
• Motor data if specified and available
• Cable lengths
