Chapter 5 Adding an ArmorStart to RSLogix 5000
Connect and Configure
ArmorStart with Add-On-
Profile (AOP) This section will show the AOP tabs and how they can be used to connect, obtain
status, and configure the ArmorStart. Before the walkthrough is started, the
RSLogix 5000 software should be open and an AOP displayed as shown below.
The screenshot above displays that the AOP has seven tabs that can be used to
configure and/or monitor your ArmorStart. The following lists the tabs and
whether or not they are editable with the controller when OFFLINE, ONLINE,
or both:
• General – OFFLINE
• Connection – OFFLINE
• Module Info – ONLINE
• Parameters – OFFLINE/ONLINE
Internet Protocol – ONLINE
• Port Configuration – ONLINE
• Network – ONLINE
The last five tabs in the list will not display information until the ONLINE
connection has been established with the ArmorStart. The General, Connection,
and Parameters tabs will be discussed first because they are used to define
OFFLINE settings so that connection with the ArmorStart can be established.
