The new family of ArmorStart LT distributed motor controllers comes in a pre-engineered system that helps simplify wiring, speed up commissioning time and reduce the need for extra cabinet space. EtherNet/IP connectivity improves the exchange of critical information and gives operators access to parameters, status and diagnostics, regardless of location. EtherNet/IP switch technology, which supports device-level ring (DLR) network topology, lets users create a single DLR network that connects all components at the device level locally. A transparent clock synchronizes motor devices on an EtherNet/IP architecture, accommodating delays introduced by other devices. The devices contain a standard, local disconnect feature that allows operators to turn off the motor and perform lockout tagout procedures during maintenance. An add-on profile for Rockwell Software RSLogix 5000 programming software delivers automatic, predefined tag names.
