Product Description
The GE RST Extended Analog I/O Board DS200TCQBG1BCB is populated with a programmable logic device and EPROM modules. The GE RST Extended Analog I/O Board DS200TCQBG1BCB also has 1 OK LED that is viewable from the side, 1 50-pin connector, and 15 jumpers. The ID assigned to the 50-pin connector is JKK. The IDs assigned to the 34-pin connectors are 3PL and JLL. During the board replacement procedure you must remove the cables from the defective board and connect the cables to the replacement. There is some information about the cables connected to the 50-pin and 34-pin connectors that you must consider before you begin.
The 50-pin connector and the 34-pin connectors use ribbon cables to connect to other boards in the drive. The 50-pin and 34-pin ribbon cables carry signals that are processed by the board. Some of the signals are received by the board for processing. Other signals are transmitted by the board and processed by other boards in the drive interior.
The ribbon cables can be damaged if mishandled. Only hold the ribbon cable by the connector at the end of the cable when you disconnect it from the board. If you pull the ribbon cable out like a rope you can easily cause the fine copper wires to pull out from the connector. You will notice that the connector at the end of the ribbon cable provides little support to the ribbon cable.
When you connect the ribbon cable, align it with the connector and press it into the connector. Visually inspect the connection and if you see space between the connectors, apply more pressure to the connection.
