Product Description
The GE RST LM6000 Analog Board DS200TBQEG1B features 2 terminal blocks. Each block contains 95 terminals for signal wires. The GE RST LM6000 Analog Board DS200TBQEG1B also contains 2 jumpers, and 6 34-pin connectors. The 34-pin connectors have IDs associated with them on the surface of the board. One group of 34-pin connectors are JQQR, JQQS, and JQQT. Another group of 34-pin connectors are JLLR, JLLS, and JLLT. Before you remove the ribbon cables from the 34-pin connectors it is beneficial to stick labels on the ribbon cables that indicate where the ribbon cable is connected. This helps the installer avoid mistakes when connecting the cables on the replacement board.
It is also important to notice how the ribbon cables are routed inside the drive. Space is limited inside the cabinet and cable routing will allow for proper airflow which helps cool the heat-generating components in the cabinet. The drive is designed so that cool air enters the drive at the bottom and draws heat from the components as it rises. At the top of the drive it exits as hot air. The second benefit of proper cable routing is in keeping power cables away from signal wires and ribbon cables. The power cables are known to interfere with signal-carrying cables, if they are routed close together in a drive.
Due to the weight of the terminal blocks and the associated signal wires the board is attached to the board rack inside the drive with 5 screws. The 6 ribbon cables attached to the 6 34-pin connectors contributes to the weight of the board.
