Frequently Asked Questions about IS200FCGEH1A

What type of board is the IS200FCGEH1A model?

The IS200FCGEH1A board is a Control and Gating Exciter Board part of the LCI (Load Commutated Inverter) control system.

What are the primary functions of the IS200FCGEH1A board?

The primary functions of the IS200FCGEH1A board are to condition current feedback signals as well as voltages from the exciter bridge to the LCI processor board as well as relay cell gating commands from the LCI's processor board to the exciter. 

What is the mounting location of the IS200FCGEH1A board?

The mounting location of the IS200FCGEH1A board is the VMEbus rack that is inside the LCI's control cabinet. 

What is the heartbeat function within the IS200FCGEH1A board?

The heartbeat function within the IS200FCGEH1A is used through circuitry that is enabled when the VMEbus host first writes to the FCGE. When the heartbeat has been activated if everything is functioning properly then the active LED will be green; if the heartbeat check fails then gating is disabled and the LED will turn off. 

How many VMEbus bus connectors are on the IS200FCGEH1A model?

There are two 96-pin VMEbus connectors, the P1 connector is the standard for VMEbus I/O, and the P2 connector is used for I/O interfacing with the host processor, the exciter, and other LCI boards. 

About the IS200FCGEH1A

The IS200FCGEH1A model is mainly used to provide signal interfacing between the motor field exciter and Load Commutated Inverter (LCI) drive. This board has two primary functions, two functions being, to condition current and voltage feedback signals from the exciter bridge to the LCI processor board, and to relay cell gating commands from the processor board to the exciter. Within the FCGE board, there are six analog inputs on the P2 connector of the board, the signals are typically used to be attenuated within the exciter’s power bridge, which has a multitude of connections for the dc bridge and ac switch configurations.

The IS200FCGEH1A model has ground faults detection which will detect any ground faults from the dc exciter bridge and will check the dc voltage that is centered on the ground potential. If anything is detected the FCGE will trigger a protective signal. This model also has two green LEDs on the faceplate of the board, IMOK and ACTIVE, the ACTIVE LED will be one when communicating with the processor board, and the IMOK will blink to indicate that the self-test was passed and the board is functioning correctly. 

The parts manual for the IS200FCGEH1A board is the GEI-100233, all information can be found in this manual.
