About the DS200AAHAG1AD
The DS200AAHAG1AD is an ARCNET Connection Board made by General Electric as part of the Mark V LM SpeedtronicTurbine Control System. The Mark V LM manual GEH-6353B provides a clear summation of the DS200AAHAG1AD function in the control system. The board is referred to through by its abbreviation of AAHA. The greater Mark V Series that this DS200AAHAG1AD product offering belongs to is considered a legacy product series, given its eventual manufacturing discontinuation in the many years following its initial release. With this being true, the Mark V Turbine Control System Series containing this DS200AAHAG1AD product is additionally definable as one of the final General Electric product series to utilize their patented Speedtronic Control System technology. This DS200AAHAG1AD printed circuit board or PCB for short does not exist as the original product of its intended Mark V Series functionality; that would be the DS200AAHAG1 parent ARCNET Connection Board missing this DS200AAHAG1AD PCB's two significant functional product revisions.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS200AAHAG1AD, or AAHA for short, was created to be a part of the control panel of a Speedtronic Mark V LM. This board has the ability to provide a connection and interfacing capabilities between a control engine that has I/O cores and external hardware. The control engine is typically held within the <R> core. This core typically needs to use two AAHA boards. One of the boards is used to facilitate a Stage Link between the user interface and the core. The second board has the ability to connect the core with the COREBUS. This link allows communication to happen between the I/O cores and the control engine. Given this DS200AAHAG1AD product offering's placement in a now-obsolete Mark V Legacy product series, it should come as no true surprise that its originally-introduced performance specifications and dimensions are largely not available online for research purposes. With this being true, the DS200AAHAG1AD functional product number itself can be considered a strong source of DS200AAHAG1AD board hardware information, beginning with its dual functional DS200 series tag detailing this DS200AAHAG1AD product's domestic manufacture and normal Mark V Series assembly version. Some of the other relevant DS200AAHAG1AD board details revealed in the DS200AAHAG1AD functional product number include this DS200AAHAG1AD PCB's:
- AAHA functional product abbreviation
- Normal PCB coating style
- Group 1 Mark V Series grouping
- A-rated primary functional revision
- D-rated secondary functional revision
The DS200AAHAG1AD does not need any type of hardware or software alterations to function once it is plugged in and mounted. The AAHA board is relatively small. It has an EBNC connection port that is normally not used. It has an ARCBNC-B labeled P1 and an ARCBNC-A port labeled P1. These ports are BNC ARCNET communication ports. There is an E2 and E1 LED indicator. There is an EPL 9-pin connection that is usually not used and an APL 10-pin connection port that serves as the ARCNET communications link. For more information about this board and the ARCNET, please consult the GE Mark V instruction manual GEH-6353B. Only trained professionals should make an attempt to install this board. For continued product availability on AAHA boards, please submit an RFQ to AX Control or give us a call and we will do our best to quote all options from our inventory. As once again detailed in the instructional manuals embedded above in our manuals tab for your convenience, this DS200AAHAG1AD product offering from tyhe Mark V Turbine Control System Series has interfacing potential with other Mark V Series products including the UCPB Board specifically. Like this DS200AAHAG1AD printed circuit board product offering here, the UCPB Board that the DS200AAHAG1AD device interfaces with is considered available here today for both replacement and repair, with a guaranteed three-year warranty applied upon an original purchase from AX. Three total ARCNET Connections are established in this DS200AAHAG1ADC device's assembly, through its installation of three ARCNET connectors including the ARCBNC-A, ARCBNC-B, and finally the EBNC ARCNET BNC Connectors. This DS200AAHAG1ADC device's ARCBNC connectors are clustered together in a pair on the top right corner of this DS200AAHAG1ADC PCB's normal Mark V Series assembly.
