About the DS3800DOCA1A1A
The GE Circuit Board DS3800DOCA1A features 4 trimmer resistors and 13 single-pin connectors. The GE Circuit Board DS3800DOCA1A also is populated with 4 terminals for attaching additional components and 4 resistors embedded on the board.
The methods of determining if the board is defective or experiencing intermittent errors is limited because of the lack of test points or indicator LEDs that are helpful as initial troubleshooting steps. If a board is populated with test points, a tester device can be used to ascertain the performance of individual circuits. If a circuit is found to be defective, in some cases the circuit can be repaired and the board reinstalled in the drive. If all circuits are working as normal, you can use the information to eliminate the board from consideration as the source of processing problems.
However, the GE Circuit Board DS3800DOCA1A can be evaluated using the diagnostic tools available on the drive. The diagnostic tools give a complete report on the processing performed on the board. It also provides a report on the activity of the moving parts in the drive. This includes the amount of time the motor has been used, and the load to which the motor has been subjected. Also reported is a history of all errors and warnings reported on the drive. Trip conditions are also included in the activity report. A trip condition is a serious condition that causes the drive to shutdown automatically. For example, if the drive becomes too hot or rises above a threshold, it automatically shuts down. This is also included in the diagnostic report.
