About the DS200SIOBH1A
This DS200SIOBH1A Mark V Series printed circuit board, as detailed briefly in the DS200SIOBH1A instructional manual attached above, was originally designed and produced by General Electric, specifically for placement in their Mark V Turbine Control System Series. The Mark V Series that this specific DS200SIOBH1A PCB belongs to has to be defined as a generally-obsolete product series, as it exists as a legacy product series whose manufacture was discontinued in one of the many years past its initial Mark Series rollout due to a manufacturer-identified functional series obsolescence. While obsolete as a whole, this DS200SIOBH1A product offering's greater Mark V Series is still something of a highly-sought GE product series on the figurative automated industrial marketplace, as it exists as one of the lastly-developed GE product series to make use of the patented Speedtronic control system technology first seen alongside the rollout of the previous Mark I Series in the mid to later 1960s. This DS200SIOBH1A printed circuit board product offering's greater Mark V Series is rather self explanatory, as it exists with a set of specific applications in the management and control systems of popular and compatible wind, steam, and gas turbine automated drive assemblies.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
As with any Mark V Series printed circuit board product made available to our extensive new and reconditioned inventory here, this DS200SIOBH1A PCB's intended functional role is adopted through its normal assembly's acceptance of a particular series of specialized functionality-inducing hardware components and component specifications. The GE I/O Control Board DS200SIOBH1A features twenty jumpers and 3 switch blocks with 6 switches in each block for a total of 18 switches. It is also populated with one LED light and one 40-pin connector. Some of the connectors on the GE I/O Control Board DS200SIOBH1A are able to be synced up and connected to with ribbon cables. The ribbon cables carry multiple small wires that are used for signals that are transmitted from the board to other components in the drive. Other wires in the ribbon cable carry signals that are received by the board for processing. It is vital that the ribbon cable stay in good condition so that the signals can be carried. To do that you must follow some guidelines. If you attempt to pull out the ribbon cable by holding the ribbon portion of the cable you might break the connection between the ribbon and the plastic connector. The best practice is to use one hand to firmly grip the plastic connector and firmly pull it out of the connector on the board.
You must notice how the cable is routed inside the drive because the signals carried by it can be subject to interference by electrical currents. By routing the cable away from cables carrying current you can prevent interference. Cable routing can also block the proper air flow that is important for cooling. The components in the drive generate heat and air flow is used to carry away the heat. While this DS200SIOBH1A SC2000 VME I/O Board's originally-indicated installation procedures are certainly important to keep in mind, their presence on the DS200SIOBH1A personalized product page is truthfully more telling of this DS200SIOBH1A device's lack of originally-printed instructional manual materials online; most likely a symptom of its legacy Mark product series attribution. With this being the case, the DS200SIOBH1A functional product number itself can be identified as a primary source of DS200SIOBH1A Board hardware component and component specification information; coding for specific details in a series of consecutive functional naming segments. For example, the DS200SIOBH1A functional product number begins with the dual-functional DS200 series tag asserting this DS200SIOBH1A PCB's normal Mark V Series assembly as well as its domestic original manufacture location. Some of the other relevant hardware details revealed through functional product number include this DS200SIOBH1A Board's:
- SIOB functional product abbreviation
- Conformal PCB coating style
- Group one Mark V Series grouping
- A-rated primary functional revision
