Feature Description

Standard Features Across Product Family

UL Listed “Suitable for Group Motor Applications”

— Where NFPA 70

(NEC) or 79 are required installation standards, this Listing allows two or more
motors to be connected to the same branch circuit without individual motor
branch short circuit or ground fault protection. Refer to Appendix A for details.

At-motor disconnect switch

— ArmorStart LT offers a local ON/OFF motor

disconnecting means with lockout-tagout provision. Industrial standards require
a local at-motor disconnect to be within eye sight of the motor for maintenance
or other shutdown reasons. Refer to your installation code for details.

User configurable I/O

— ArmorStart LT offers 6 user configurable I/O points

to be used with sensors and actuators. By default all 6 points are configured as
sinking 24V DC inputs. The user has the option to select any point as a sourcing
24V DC output.

RSLogix 5000 Add-On Profile (AOP)

— ArmorStart LT offers for

Allen-Bradley ControlLogix or CompactLogix PLCs a downloadable Add-On
Profile. The AOP simplifies setup and commissioning via predefined tags and
commissioning wizards. The AOP also allows copy and paste functionality for
quick setup and configuration of multiple ArmorStart LTs.

DeviceLogix

— ArmorStart LT offers local programmable logic via

DeviceLogix. DeviceLogix is a stand-alone program that resides within the
ArmorStart LT. It is programmed locally using the Add-On-Profile and
implements operations such as, AND, OR, NOT, Timers, Counters, Latches,
and Analog operations. DeviceLogix can run as a stand-alone application,
independent of the network or collaboratively with the PLC. However,
unswitched control power must be maintained for DeviceLogix to operate.

Quick disconnect for I/O and network

— ArmorStart LT offers quick

disconnect connectors for I/O and communications.

EtherNet/IP node address

— ArmorStart LT offers external accessible address

switches for device node address configuration. The address can be set statically
or dynamically.

EMI filter

— ArmorStart LT for VFD application (Bulletin 294) provides an

internal EMI filter and is CE compliant. For CE compliant installations refer to
the recommended EMI/RFI cord grip accessory. For availability of the quick
disconnect shielded motor cable contact your local sales representative for
details.

Local and remote status and diagnostics

— ArmorStart LT offers

comprehensive status and diagnostics for I/O, Network, and device health via 12

IMPORTANT

AOP support for EtherNet/IP network only and requires RSLogix 5000
revision 17.01 or later. There is a known compatibility issue with revision 20.0.
Update RSLogix 5000 to 20.1 or greater.
