ArmorStart DeviceNet Configuration
In this chapter, you will configure your ArmorStart device by using RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software,
RSLogix 5000 software, and the DeviceNet Tag Generator Tool. This significantly simplifies ArmorStart
device configuration.
Appendix A on page 155, includes the setup procedures for your personal computer and Logix
communication. These procedures apply only if you are creating a new project file in RSLogix 5000 software.
Before You Begin
• Complete your system hardware selection (refer to Chapter 1).
• Complete your system layout and wiring (refer to Chapter 2).
What You Need
• ArmorStart Accelerator Toolkit CD, publication IASIMP-SP015.
• RSLogix 5000 software, version 17.0 or later.
• RSLinx Classic software, version 2.50 or later.
• RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software, version 9.0 or later.
• The user manual for your ArmorStart controller. Refer to Additional Resources on page 11 for
publication numbers.
