About the DS200CVMAG1ADB
This DS200CVMAG1ADB printed circuit board was, as described above, originally manufactured by General Electric, specifically for placement in their Mark V Turbine Control System Series. The Mark V Series, as hinted at by its full extended series name, has specific applications in the management and control systems of compatible wind, steam, and gas turbine automated drive assemblies, and is one of the final General Electric Mark product series to extend the company's patented Speedtronic control system technology to its varied offerings. This DS200CVMAG1ADB PCB's greater Mark V Series is considered to exist as a now-obsolete legacy General Electric Mark product series, as its production has been discontinued in the many years since its original product release due to obsolescence. While this DS200CVMAG1ADB PCB is functionally referred to as a Cap/Fuse Voltage Monitor Assembly or a Generator Control Turbine Board in original Mark V Series instructional documentation, it is not the original product of its intended Mark V Series functionality, as indicated by the presence of a trailing revision digit on the DS200CVMAG1ADB functional product number.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
This DS200CVMAG1ADB PCB's functionality as a Cap/Fuse Voltage Monitor is introduced through its internal assembly's acceptance of a specific series of hardware components and component specifications. The GE Generator Control Turbine Board DS200CVMAG1ADB contains two 16-pin connectors and one 2-pin connector. The board also is populated with 6 test points. If you have reason to think the board is not performing as expected, there are several ways to diagnose the board. One method is to replace the board with another, if you have a another board available. If you replace the board and the new board resolves the issue, then you know the old board was defective. If the same problem occurs with the new board, then you must suspect other boards and components in the drive. The presence of any installation or replacement procedures for this DS200CVMAG1ADB product offering on this personalized product page is more reminiscent of their disproportionate availability in internet-ready Mark V Series instructional documentation than it is of their true importance. This DS200CVMAG1ADB PCB's DS200CVMAG1ADB functional product number itself can be considered a strong source of DS200CVMAG1ADB hardware information, beginning with its dual-functional DS200 series tag. The DS200 series tag at the beginning of the DS200CVMAG1ADB functional product number dictates this DS200CVMAG1ADB PCB's normal Mark V Series assembly and domestic manufacture location. Some of the other relevant hardware details embedded in the DS200CVMAG1ADB functional product number include this DS200CVMAG1ADB Board's:
- CVMA functional product abbreviation
- Normal PCB coating style
- Group one Mark V Series product grouping
- A-rated primary functional revision
- D-rated secondary functional revision
- B-rated artwork configuration revision
You can also use the diagnostics tools that come with the DS200CVMAG1ADB PCB's greater drive to find any problems. The diagnostic tools are accessible from the control panel and they provide a complete evaluation of the drive components. You can download the diagnostic file to a laptop for storage and inspection. After you attempt to resolve the issue you can run the diagnostics again and compare the results. If the problem is resolved, the diagnostics results will show the successful resolution of the problem. The best practice to finding the cause of a problem is to use the test points on the board to test the individual circuits and thereby find the specific defect on the board. Use a tester that is calibrated for the specific task and make sure the controls are set correctly also. Use only probes that are designed for use with the tester device.
