    ArmorConnect Cable Ratings

    The ArmorConnect Power Media cables are rated per UL Type TC 600V 90 °C Dry 75 °C Wet, Exposed Run (ER) or MTW 600V 90 °C or STOOW 105 °C 600V - CSA STOOW 600V FT2. For additional information regarding ArmorConnect Power Media see the ArmorStart User Manual.

    Branch Circuit Protection Requirements for ArmorConnect™ Three-Phase Power Media

    When using ArmorConnect Three-Phase Power Media, only fuses can be used for the motor branch circuit protective device, for the group motor installations. The recommended fuse types are the following: Class CC, T, or J type fuses. For additional information, see the ArmorStart User Manual. A 100 A circuit breaker can be used for the motor branch protective device, for the group motor installations when using only the following ArmorConnect power media components: 280-M35M-M1, 280-M35F-M1, 280-T35, and 280-PWRM35*-M*. For additional information, see the ArmorStart User Manual.

    Group Motor Installations for USA and Canada Markets

    The ArmorStart Distributed Motor controllers are listed for use with each other in group installations per NFPA 79, Electrical Standard for Industrial Machinery. When applied according to the group motor installation requirements, two or more motors, of any rating or controller type, are permitted on a single branch circuit. Group Motor Installation has been successfully used for many years in the USA and Canada.

    Wiring and Workmanship Guidelines

    In addition to conduit and seal-tite raceway, it is acceptable to utilize cable that is dual rated Tray Cable, Type TC-ER and Cord, STOOW, for power and control wiring on ArmorStart installations. In the USA and Canada installations, the following guidance is outlined by the NEC and NFPA 79.

    In industrial establishments where the conditions of maintenance and supervision ensure that only qualified persons service the installation, and where the exposed cable is continuously supported and protected against physical damage using mechanical protection, such as struts, angles, or channels, Type TC tray cable that complies with the crush and impact requirements of Type MC (Metal Clad) cable and is identified for such use with the marking Type TC-ER (Exposed Run)* shall be permitted between a cable tray and the utilization equipment or device as open wiring. The cable shall be secured at intervals not exceeding 1.8 m (6 ft) and installed in a “good workman-like” manner. Equipment grounding for the utilization equipment shall be provided by an equipment grounding conductor within the cable.

  • Publication 284G-QS001A-EN-P - December 2008

    9

    *Historically cable meeting these crush and impact requirements were designated and marked “Open Wiring”. Cable so marked is equivalent to the present Type TC-ER and can be used.

    While the ArmorStart is intended for installation in factory floor environments of industrial establishments, the following must be taken into consideration when locating the ArmorStart in the application: Cables, including those for control voltage including 24V DC and communications, are not to be exposed to an operator or building traffic on a continuous basis. Location of the ArmorStart to minimize exposure to continual traffic is recommended. If location to minimize traffic flow is unavoidable, other barriers to minimize inadvertent exposure to the cabling should be considered. Routing cables should be done in such a manner to minimize inadvertent exposure and/or damage.

    Additionally, if conduit or other raceways are not used, it is recommended that strain relief fittings be utilized when installing the cables for the control and power wiring through the conduit openings.

    The working space around the ArmorStart may be minimized as the ArmorStart does not require examination, adjustment, servicing or maintenance while energized. In lieu of this service, the ArmorStart is meant to be unplugged and replaced after proper lockout/tag-out procedures have been employed.

    DeviceNet Network Installation

    The ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller contains the equivalent of 30 in. (0.76 m) of Device Net drop cable's electrical characteristics and therefore 30 in. of drop cable must be included in the DeviceNet drop cable budget for each ArmorStart in addition to actual drop cable required for the installation.

    Other DeviceNet System Design Considerations

    The separation of the control power and DeviceNet power is recommended as a good design practice. This minimizes the load on the DeviceNet supply, and prevents transients which may be present on the control power system from influencing the communication controls.

    Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

    The following guidelines are provided for EMC installation compliance.

    General Notes

    • The motor Cable should be kept as short as possible in order to avoid electromagnetic emission as well as capacitive currents

    • Conformity of the drive with CE EMC requirements does not guarantee an entire machine installation complies with CE EMC requirements. Many factors can influence total machine/installation compliance.

  • 10

    Publication 284G-QS001A-EN-P - December 2008

    • Using an EMI filter with any drive rating, may result in relatively high ground leakage currents. Therefore, the filter must only be used in installations and solidly grounded (bonded) to the building power distribution ground. Grounding must not rely on flexible cables and should not include any form of plug or socket that would permit inadvertent disconnection. Some local codes may require redundant ground connections. The integrity of all connections should be periodically checked.

    Grounding

    Connect a grounding conductor to the terminal provided as standard on each ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller. Refer to Table 2 for grounding provision location. There is also an externally available ground terminal. Refer to Figure 9.

    LED Status Indication The LED Status Indication provides 4 status LEDs and a Reset button. The LEDs provide status indication for the following:

    • POWER LEDThe LED is illuminated solid green when control power is present and with the proper polarity

    • RUN LEDThis LED is illuminated solid green when a start command and control power are present

    • NETWORK LEDThis bi-color (red/green) LED indicates the status of the communication link

    • FAULT LEDIndicates Controller Fault (trip) condition

    DeviceNet Node Commissioning

    Establishing a DeviceNet Node Address

    The ArmorStart is shipped with a default node address of 63 and Autobaud enabled. Each device on a DeviceNet network must have a unique node address or MAC ID which can be set to a value from 0…63. Keep in mind that most DeviceNet systems use address 0 for the master device (Scanner) and node address 63 should be left vacant for introduction of new slave devices. The ArmorStart offers two methods for node commissioning as shown in the following pages.

    Node Commissioning using Software

    To set the node address of the ArmorStart using software or other handheld tools, leave the hardware rotary switches in their default position (99) or insure that they are set to something greater then (63). With the hardware switches set, use the software or handheld tool to change the address.

    When using software to node commission a device, it may be necessary to have the EDS file stored on the computer. The EDS file defines how the software such as RSNetWorx for DeviceNet will communicate to the ArmorStart. Rockwell Automation product EDS files are available on the internet at: http://www.ab.com/networks/eds. You must use RSNetWorx for DeviceNet Revision 3.21 Service Pack 2 or later.

    ATTENTION

    !Three-phase power must be applied to the Bulletin 284G Distributed Motor Controller to gain access to drive parameters.

    Publication 284G-QS001A-EN-P - December 2008

    Node Commissioning using Hardware

    The ArmorStart is shipped with the hardware rotary switches set to a value of (99). If the switches are set to a value of (64) or above, the device will automatically configure itself to the software node address. If the switches are set to a value of (63) or less, the device will be at the node address designated by the switch configuration.

    To set an address using the hardware rotary switches, simply set the switches to the desired node address. To access the node address rotary switches, three-phase and control power should be turned off. Then remove the starter module from the base unit. The rotary node address switches are located on the back side of the starter module. Change the switches to the desired node address. Re-install the starter module to the base unit. Reapply power and the device will re-start at the new address.

    Quick Reference Troubleshooting

    There are four LEDs on the front of the ArmorStart that can provide an indication as to the health of the device. The following is a brief explanation of the operation of each LED.

    Table 7 LED Status Indication

    Table 8 Network LED Status Indication

    Fault Definitions Some of the Bulletin 284G ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller faults are detected by the internal hardware of the ArmorStart, while others are detected by the internal drive. For internal drive faults, the internal hardware of the ArmorStart simply polls the drive for the existence of faults and reports the fault state. No fault latching is done by the internal hardware of the ArmorStart for these faults. The Pr FltReset Mode parameter (Parameter 23) determines the Auto Resettability of only the faults that are detected on the main control board. These faults are listed as “param 23” autoresettable in Table 9. The Auto Resettability of the faults that are detected in the internal drive is controlled by internal drive parameters. These faults are listed as drive controlled in Table 9.

    LED Definition

    PowerThis LED will be illuminated solid green when control power is present and with the proper polarity.

    RunThis LED will be illuminated solid green when a start command and control power are present.

    Network This bi-color LED is used to indicate the status of the DeviceNet network. See the Network Status LED table below for additional information.

    FaultThis LED is used to indicate the fault status of the ArmorStart. When the unit is faulted, the unit will respond with a specific blink pattern to identify the fault. See the Fault LED table below for additional information.

    Network Status LED Definition Possible Causes

    Off The device has not completed the initialization, is not on an active network, or may not be powered up.

    Check to make sure the product is properly wired and configured on the network.

    Flashes green-red-off While waiting to detect the network baud rate, the LED will flash this pattern about every 3 seconds.

    If the product stays in this state it means that there is no set baud rate. Insure that at least one device on the network has a set baud rate.

    Solid Green The device is operating in a normal condition, and is communicating to another device on the network.

    No action required.

    Flashing Green The device is operating in a normal condition, is on-line, but with no connection to another device. This is the typical state for new devices.

    The device may need to be mapped to a master scanner, placed in a scanlist, or have another device communicate to it.

    Flashing Red Recoverable fault has occurred. Check to make sure the PLC™ and scanner are operating correctly and that there are no media/cabling issues. Check to see if other networked devices are in a similar state.

    Solid Red The device has detected a major error that has rendered it incapable of communicating on the network (Duplicate MAC ID, Bus-off, media issue).

    Troubleshooting should be done to ensure that the network is correct (terminators, lengths, etc.) and there is not a duplicate node problem. If other devices on the network appear to be operating fine and power cycling the device does not work, contact Technical Support.

    Flashing Red and Green

    The device is in a communication faulted state. Power cycling the device may resolve the problem; however, if the problem continues, it may be necessary to contact Technical Support.

    3 — Phase Short (Drive Error Codes 41…43)

    The ArmorStart has detected a phase short. Excessive current has been detected between two of the output terminals. Check the motor for a shorted condition. Replace starter module if fault cannot be cleared. This fault cannot be disabled.

    4 — Ground Fault (Drive Error Codes 13, 38…40)

    A current path to earth has been detected at or more of the drive output terminals or a phase to ground fault has been detected between the drive and motor in this phase. Check the motor for a grounded condition. Replace starter module if fault cannot be cleared. This fault cannot be disabled.

    5 — Motor Stalled(Drive Error Code 6)

    Drive is unable to accelerate motor. Increase Parameter 139 and/or 167 (Accel Time x) or reduce load so drive output current does not exceed the current by Parameter 189. This fault cannot be disabled.

    6 Control Power

    — The ArmorStart has detected a loss of the control power voltage. Check control voltage, wiring, and proper polarity. Also check and replace control voltage fuse, if necessary. This fault can be disabled and is disabled by default.

    7 I/O Fault — Depending on the types of modules in the configuration this error could be generated by a shorted sensor, shorted input device, wiring mistakes, or a blown output fuse. If this fault occurs, the offending problem should be isolated or removed prior to restarting the system. This fault can be disabled and is disabled by default.

    8 — Heatsink Overtemperature (Drive Error Code 8)

    Heatsink temperature exceeds a predefined value. Verify that ambient temperature has not exceeded. This fault cannot be disabled. Replace internal fan.

    9 — Over-Current (Drive Error Codes 12 and 63)

    The ArmorStart has detected a voltage imbalance. Check the power system and correct if necessary. This fault cannot be disabled.

    10 DNet Power Loss

    Internal Drive Faults

    A fault is a condition that stops the drive. There are two fault types.

    Table 10 Internal Drive Fault Types

    Automatically Clearing Faults (Option/Step)

    Clear a Type 1 fault and restart the drive.

    1. Set Parameter 192 (Auto Rstrt Tries) to a value other than 0.

    2. Set Parameter 193 (Auto Rstrt Delay) to a value other than 0.

    Clear an OverVoltage, UnderVoltage or Heatsink OvrTmp fault without restarting the drive.

    1. Set 192 [Auto Rstrt Tries] to a value other than 0.

    2. Set 193 [Auto Rstrt Delay] to 0.

    Auto Restart (Reset/Run)

    The Auto Restart feature provides the ability of the drive to automatically perform a fault reset followed by a start attempt without user or application intervention. This allows remote or unattended operation. Only certain faults are allowed to be reset. Certain faults (Type 2) that indicate possible drive component malfunction are not resettable.

    Caution should be used when enabling this feature, since the drive will attempt to issue its own start command based on user selected programming.

    Type Description

    1

    Auto-Reset/RunWhen this type of fault occurs, and Parameter 192 (Auto Rstrt Tries) Related Parameter(s): 155, 158, 161, 193 is set to a value greater than 0, a user-configurable timer, Parameter 193 (AutoRstrt Delay) Related Parameter(s): 192, begins. When the timer reaches zero, the drive attempts to automatically reset the fault. If the condition that caused the fault is no longer present, the fault will be reset and the drive will be restarted.

    2

    Non-ResettableThis type of fault may require drive or motor repair, or is caused by wiring or programming errors. The cause of the fault must be corrected before the fault can be cleared.

    Intro

    Details of the Rockwell Automation Print Specifications sheet

    This print specifications sheet is designed with multiple purposes.- It is a vehicle to get the most accurate print specifications to RA-approved print vendors.- It provides authors with an explanation of all necessary fields to complete before attaching the sheet to your PDF.- It provides separate tabs so that an author can fill in all fields related to the publication on the Generic tab or publication-specific template-type tabs to minimize the number of fields an author must complete.

    To facilitate the most efficient use of this sheet, we recommend that you click on the publication-specific tab that most closely fits you publication and use that to complete the print specifications.

    IMPORTANT: Because this sheet was constructed using a sheet that RR Donnelley (RRD) uses to load print specifications, there are some columns hidden. For example, the first field you must complete is Column E, or Publication Number. Columns A to D are used for RRD purposes and with information only representatives of that RA-approved printer can complete.

    DO NOT delete any hidden columns from the tab you choose to use.

    100# Gloss CoverIf your publication uses a spine, make note of that in the comments field. Be sure to include the spine as the last page of your PDF. Do NOT include that page as part of the publication page count. Because the addition of a spine will create an odd page count in the PDF, contact a Super User to submit your publication via PDFdirect with an exception tool.
