About the DS200TBQCG1B
This DS200TBQCG1B printed circuit board product offering was, as explained previously, designed and manufactured by trusted industrial retailer General Electric, specifically for use in their Mark V Turbine Control System Series. This DS200TBQCG1B printed circuit board's greater Mark V Series is considered a now-obsolete legacy product series given its manufacturing discontinuation in the years following its initial release. With this being true, the Mark V Series that this DS200TBQCG1B device belongs to is in some sense an updated product series still, as it is one of the final General Electric Mark product series to make use of their patented Speedtronic control system technology. While this DS200TBQCG1B Analog Termination Board is definable as such in its own right, the orginally-manufactured Mark V Series product of that functionality would have to be the DS200TBQCG1 parent Analog Termination Board crucially missing this DS200TBQCG1B product's B-rated functional product revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The GE RST Analog Termination Board DS200TBQCG1B features 2 terminal blocks. Each block contains 83 terminals for signal wires. The GE RST Analog Termination Board DS200TBQCG1B also contains 15 jumpers, 3 40-pin connectors, and 3 34-pin connectors. Because of the multiple 40-pin and 34-pin connectors, guidelines must be followed concerning connecting and disconnecting the ribbon cables. The DS200TBQCG1B uses the abbreviation of TBQC in many GE Manuals and Datasheets and can also be referred to as a Milliamp Input/Output Termination Board. The 40-pin and 34-pin connectors are assigned IDs on the board. On a strip of tape write the ID of the connector and press it on the ribbon cable. This practice makes connecting the cables on the replacement board easier. The DS200TBQCG1B has connections as follow:
- JBR - Writes and reads I/O signals respectively from the TCQA
- JFR - Writes LVDT/R input communications to the TCQA
- JBS/T, JFS/T, and TEST - Are generally not used.
The jumpers in the assembly of this DS200TBQCG1B Mark V Series product are accompanied by the factory-printed nomenclatures of BJ1-BJ17, and have specific functions as detailed in the DS200TBQCG1B instructional manual and datasheet attached above. Before making any final purchase decision on this DS200TBQCG1B product offering, it is crucial to recognize that its originally-introduced performance specifications and dimensions have almost certainly been impacted by this DS200TBQCG1B device's assembly's inclusion of the atypical B-rated primary functional product revision.
