Preface
About This Publication
This quick start provides step-by-step instructions for using the ArmorStart
Accelerator Toolkit to help you easily design, install, operate, and maintain an
on-machine system. Included are pre-configured files, selection tools, and
examples of using a Logix controller to connect to multiple devices
(ArmorStart distributed motor controllers and HMI terminal) over the
EtherNet/IP and DeviceNet network to provide Intelligent Motor Control for
your application requirements.
The ArmorStart Accelerator Toolkit CD, publication IASIMP-SP015
, provides
ArmorStart selection tools; CAD drawings for panel layout and wiring; basic
status, control, and diagnostic logic; FactoryTalk View ME and FactoryTalk
View SE faceplates, and more. For a copy of the CD, contact your local
Rockwell Automation distributor or sales representative. With these tools and
the built-in best-practices design, the system designer is free to focus on the
design of their machine control and not on design overhead tasks.
You can also download these same supporting files from the
Rockwell Automation Integrated Architecture Tools website,
http://www.ab.com/go/iatools
on the Beyond Getting Started tab.
The beginning of each chapter contains the following information. Read these
sections carefully before beginning work in each chapter:
• Before You Begin - This section lists the steps that must be completed
and decisions that must be made before starting that chapter. The chapters
in this quick start do not have to be completed in the order in which they
appear, but this section defines the minimum amount of preparation
required before completing the current chapter.
• What You Need - This section lists the tools that are required to
complete the steps in the current chapter. This includes, but is not limited
to, hardware and software.
• Follow These Steps - This illustrates the steps in the current chapter and
identifies which steps are required to complete the examples by using
specific networks.
