ArmorStart with ArmorPoint

ArmorStart for the ArmorPoint Backplane

The Bulletin 284A ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controller allows
connectivity to the ArmorPoint backplane. The ArmorPoint I/O system can
communicate using DeviceNet™, ControlNet™, or EtherNet
communication protocols. In addition to the other network communication
protocols; the ArmorPoint Distributed I/O products allow the I/O capability
to be expanded beyond the standard two outputs. Two dual-key relay output
connectors are provided standard. The outputs are sourced from control
voltage power (A1, A2). LED status indication is also provided, as standard
with the ArmorPoint. When using ArmorPoint, a maximum of two
ArmorStart Distributed Motor Controllers can be connected to the
ArmorPoint Distributed I/O products.
