Product Description
The GE I/O TC2000 Analog Board DS200TCCBG1BED features one 80196 microprocessor and multiple PROM modules. It also contains one LED and 2 50-pin connectors. The LED is visible from the side view of the board. The IDs for the 50-pin connectors are JCC and JDD. The microprocessor uses the processing instructions and firmware on the PROM modules. Further programming or firmware updates are not necessary when you install the replacement board. All that is necessary is to move the PROM modules from the old board to the sockets on the replacement board. In that way, you can resume drive activity and know that processing will be the same.
You must also reconnect the ribbon cables into the same connectors on the replacement board. This applies to both the 50-pin ribbon cables and also the 34-pin ribbon cables. Because there are 5 34-pin connectors, there is a chance that you might connect the ribbon cables into the wrong connectors. There is also a chance of connecting the 50-pin connectors into the wrong connectors. All the connectors have connector IDs and even if the replacement board is a newer version, the connector IDs will be the same. You might find that the components on the replacement board are in different locations and that the components look different. Due to extensive product testing, compatibility between the versions is maintained and the replacement board will provide the same processing results as the defective board. Plug the ribbon cables into the same connectors on the new board and use the connector IDs to map the old board to the new board.
