Frequently Asked Questions about DS200DSPCH1A

What is a DS200DSPCH1A module?

DS200DSPCH1A is a Digital Signal Processor Module that provides computational capacity and communications bandwidth for GE LS2100 control systems.

Where can you find the manual for the DS200DSPCH1A?

The instruction manual for the DS200DSPCH1A is GEI-100220 and is available from AX Control upon request.

The DS200DSPCH1A board has a VME Bus Interface. What is the purpose of the VME Bus and how does it function?

The VME Bus Interface is used as an optional connector for compatibility with the GE Fanuc 90/70 Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). The board can function as either a VME Bus master or slave. When operating as a VME Bus slave it will do so with an 8K dual-ported SRAM interface. All VME Bus accesses will be controlled in a configurable static random access memory (SRAM) based field programmable array (FGPA) device. 

If I need to reset the DS200DSPCH1A board how can I do so?

There are four ways you can reset the DS200DSPCH1A board, you can do a VME sysreset, a power-up reset, use the reset pushbutton, or the VME master bus can write to the VME control register.

Can the DS200DSPCH1A board handle daughterboard connections?

Yes the DSPC board has provisions for mounting up to four daughterboards. 

How many switches are on the DSPC board?

There are two switches. The SW1 is a hard reset switch for the DSP and the SW2 switch is a serial boot switch.

How many LEDs does the DS200DSPCH1A board have and what are their purposes?

There are six LEDs on the board, two of them are used to indicate the status of the DSPC board, the designation regarding the status are IMOK and FAIL. The IMOK will be green and indicating that the board is functioning properly; the FAIL LED will be red and indicates that the VME Bus has reported that the board has failed. The remaining four LEDs are software-defined but are done so per individual project, they will be Amber and the designations are LED1, LED2, LED3, and LED4. 

About the DS200DSPCH1A

The Digital Signal Processor Control Board number DS200DSPCH1A is primarily used to provide communications bandwidth and computational capacity, these features are used for directly controlling high-powered converter applications. The following applications are directly controlled applications, wind turbines, dynamometers, multi-bridge power converters,  uninterruptible power sources (UPS), and active filters. This model provides its own memory program as well as expandable high-speed input/output for direct interfaces without using the datapath from the VME. 

The DS200DSPCH1A board has a serial communication feature that provides asynchronous communication through a duplicate channel UART (universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter).  Note that the DSPC model has two pushbutton switches on the front faceplate, the SW1 switch is used for a hard reset of the DSPC model, while the SW2 is used as a serial boot switch for the DSPC. When needing to use the reset pushbutton switches a pen/pencil will need to be used to press the switch. 

All information on the DS200DSPCH1A model can be found in not only the GEH-6373 series manual but the GEI-100220 manual as well which includes all information on the LEDs, test points, connectors, and switches. 

Reviews For DS200DSPCH1A

Internal Review
(5.0)

The DS200DSPCH1A model has a VME bus interface that can allow for a GE Fanuc 90/70 PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) to be connected. This model also has provisions to mount up to four daughterboards. The DS200DSPCH1A will likely require the additional purchase of option boards such as the ADMA that must be fixed to the side of the module. Attaching these option boards is simple and well designed. The DS200DSPCH1a is a highly intelligent and well constructed board. 5 stars - AX Control Tech Team
