About the DS3800HMPK1G1F
The GE Microprocessor Board DS3800HMPK1G1F is designed for quick installation in the drive. The board features a modular connector on 1 end and retention levers on the other end. The GE Microprocessor Board DS3800HMPK1G1F also is populated with 3 red indicator LEDs and 1 amber LED which are visible from the front of the board. The board also is populated with a microprocessor, erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) modules, and a 34-pin connector. It also is populated with 2 50-pin connectors.
Troubleshooting steps are available if you find that the GE Microprocessor Board DS3800HMPK1G1F is defective. If the board is experiencing intermittent problems or has suddenly stopped performing up to standard, it might be that some command signals have gotten out of sequence. It could also be that the firmware or other code is out of sequence on the microprocessor. In either case, the best first step is to restart the board. The restart will enable the microprocessor is refresh the instructions and clear up any temporary problems.
The board is populated with a reset button to easily restart the board. However, because the button is pressed while the board is receiving power, only a qualified servicer or technician can perform the action. This is to avoid an electric shock or burn. While the drive is receiving power, the servicer can press the reset button because it is located between the retention levers and is accessible while the board is installed in the drive. Press the button for a few seconds to stop processing.
