About the IS215VCMIH2CA
This IS215VCMIH2CA printed circuit board was manufactured originally by GE Industrial Systems, a subsidiary manufacturer that exists under the greater production umbrella of respected industry giant General Electric. This IS215VCMIH2CA printed circuit board or PCB for short is better definable by its functional description as a VME Communications Interface, and was actually designed to exist as a member of GE Industrial Systems' Mark VI Speedtronic Series of Turbine Control Systems and turbine control system component products. On top of this, the IS215VCMIH2CA is actually a modified version of a preexisting GE Industrial Systems product; altering the IS215VCMIH2 parent board through its inclusion of two significant functional revisions rated at "C" and "A" respectively. This IS215VCMIH2CA VME Communications Interface Board's encompassing Mark VI Turbine Control System Series, as it is known at length, exists as one of the trusted General Electric giant manufacturer's final-developed Mark Series iterations to make use of the well-loved Speedtronic control system technology across an expanse of different product offerings.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
This IS215VCMIH2CA VME Communications Interface makes use of a great number of specific hardware components to achieve its intended functionality. As indicated by its functional description, the actual purpose of this IS215VCMIH2CA board within the Mark VI Speedtronic drive assembly is to act as an interface between controller and I/O boards, as well as with the Mark VI Series' greater IONet system control communications network. With this in mind, it should come as no surprise that this IS215VCMIH2CA board necessitated the adoption of a special assembly style; proven through an inclusion of the IS215 special series identification tag in its unique product number. Atypically different to most Mark VI Speedtronic Series products; this IS215VCMIH2CA board makes use of two total functional revisions, instead of the standard counts of one or three revisions. This IS215VCMIH2CA board's front faceplate is populated by an elevated number of fourteen total LED indicators, seemingly included in its assembly for diagnostic testing purposes. Each of these LED indicators should come with their own factory-printed reference designators for easy identification. Some of the labels given to these LED indicators include:
- 4 MODULE-labeled LEDs
- 3 EST-labeled LEDS
- A TX-labeled LED
- An RX-labeled LED
- A CD-labeled LED
- A RUN-labeled LED
- A FAIL-labeled LED
- A STATUS-labeled LED
- A RESET-labeled LED
While this IS215VCMIH2CA product's front faceplate is considered durable, it is not afforded the same chemically-applied layer of PCB protection that its base board components should come protected by. This IS215VCMIH2CA VME Communications Interface Board product benefits somewhat from its General Electric original manufacture, as it makes use of a specialized IS215VCMIH2CA functional Mark VI Series product number that was actually specially designed to illustrate a number of relevant IS215VCMIH2CA VME Communications Interface Board hardware components and component qualities through a standard selection of consecutive functioning naming chunks. For instance, this IS215VCMIH2CA VME Communications Interface Board's IS215VCMIH2CA functional product number in particular is started off through an instance of the dual-functioning IS215 series tag responsible for delegating this IS215VCMIH2CA device's normal Mark VI Series assembly version on top of the standard domestic manufacture location. Some of the other pertinent IS215VCMIH2CA details embedded here include its VCMI functional product acronym, its group 2 product grouping, its conformal PCB coating, and its two-fold revision table.
