Part Number IS230TBAI1CH02 Manufacturer General Electric Country of Manufacture As Per GE Manufacturing Policy Series Mark VI/VIe Function Module Availability In StockIS230TBAI1CH02 is an analog input terminal board developed by GE. It is a part of Mark VIe control system. The Analog Input terminal board (TBAI) is a versatile component designed to facilitate analog input and output functionalities within the system. Its compatibility with both simplex and TMR configurations further enhances system resilience and redundancy, ensuring continuous operation and performance optimization. Analog Inputs Quantity: TBAI supports up to 10 analog inputs, accommodating various transmitter types including two-wire, three-wire, four-wire, or externally powered transmitters. Flexibility: These inputs offer flexibility in accommodating different transmitter configurations, ensuring compatibility with diverse sensor setups. Analog Outputs Quantity: TBAI features two analog outputs, configurable for either 0-20 mA or 0-200 mA current output ranges.

Customizable: Users have the flexibility to configure the output range according to specific system requirements, enhancing adaptability and versatility. Noise Suppression Circuitry Protection: Both inputs and outputs are equipped with noise suppression circuitry, safeguarding against surge and high-frequency noise. This feature ensures reliable and accurate signal transmission, even in challenging operating environments. Connectivity Options Connectors: TBAI provides three DC-37 pin connectors for connection to the I/O processors, offering flexibility in system configuration. Simplex or TMR Configuration: Connections can be simplex, utilizing a single connector (JR1), or Triple Modular Redundant (TMR), utilizing all three connectors. Cabling Options: Connections may be established through cables or directly to the electronics, providing flexibility in installation and setup. TMR Operation Signal Distribution: In TMR applications, input signals are distributed to the three connectors corresponding to the R, S, and T controls, ensuring redundancy and fault tolerance.

Output Operation: TMR outputs function by combining the current of the three connected output drivers, with the total current measured using a shunt on the TBAI. Regulation: The TBAI regulates the total current signal presented to the electronics, ensuring precise control and regulation to the commanded setpoint. Configuration Jumpers J1A through J8A: These jumpers determine whether the input is configured for current input or voltage input. The specific configuration is selected based on the desired input type./li> Jumpers J1B through J8B: These jumpers dictate whether the return is connected to common or left open, providing flexibility in grounding configurations. Jumpers J9A and J10A: These jumpers offer a choice between 1 mA or 20 mA input current, allowing users to customize the input current according to specific requirements. Jumpers J9B and J10B: Similar to J1B through J8B, these jumpers determine whether the return is connected to common or left open, providing additional flexibility in grounding configurations for specific input currents. Jumper J0: Jumper J0 is responsible for setting output 1 to either 20 mA or 200 mA, enabling users to configure the output current based on their application needs. Additional Configuration: Beyond jumper settings, all other configurations, particularly those related to VAIC (Voltage Analog Input Card) or PAIC (Programmable Analog Input Card), are performed using specialized tools available in the toolbox. These tools provide comprehensive options for fine-tuning and customizing the terminal board's operation to suit specific application requirements.
