About the DS3800DXRA1A1A

The GE Generator Regulator Board DS3800DXRA1A1A features 1 20-pin connector and 10 jumpers. The GE Generator Regulator Board DS3800DXRA1A1A also is populated with multiple capacitors and 5 indicator LEDs. The board is also populated with a toggle switch for resetting the board.

The 10 jumpers that populate the board are assigned unique IDs. Each jumper is used to configure a different segment of the processing performed by the board. And the purpose of the jumpers is explained in the printed information supplied by the factory. The information is supplied to you with the original board and is found in the shipping carton. Use the description to understand the purpose of the jumpers and then find the jumper to change by locating the jumper with the same ID on the board.

The 3-pin jumpers are designed so that 2 of the pins are covered by the jumper and 1 pin is not covered. The jumper creates a contact between the 2 covered jumpers and this creates a signal that instructs the board to configure the board. Cover the pins 1 and 2 or pins 2 and 3 with the jumper. The factory defines a default setting for the jumpers, which is the settings for the jumper as it is delivered from the factory.

Best practice is to record the jumper settings for the board and keep the information in a safe place. When you replace the board, set the jumpers on the replacement board to match the defective board.
