GE Mark V-Series DS200SIOBH1ABA Printed Circuit Boards

This DS200SIOBH1ABA General Electric printed circuit board was originally manufactured for General Electric's Mark V series.

The Mark V series offered by General Electric has specific applications in the management and control systems of gas, steam and wind turbines and is known as the Mark V Turbine Control System Series.

The Mark V series, to which this DS200SIOBH1ABA printed circuit board belongs, is considered to be General Electric's legacy series.

as it has been discontinued in the years since its original production. Although it is a legacy series of General Electric.

The Mark V series, to which the DS200SIOBH1ABA PCB belongs, is one of the most recently developed product lines, utilising GE's patented Speedtronic technology.

This technology was first introduced in the late 1960's with the introduction of the Mark I. This DS200SIOBH1ABA PCB is one of the most recently developed product lines. This DS200SIOBH1ABA printed circuit board, or PCB for short, is better known by its official functional product description.

This DS200SIOBH1ABA printed circuit board, or PCB for short, is better defined as a SC2000 VME I/O board by its official functional product description, as shown in the original General Electric and Mark V series instruction manual documentation.

Given this, this DS200SIOBH1ABA printed circuit board is not the original SC2000 VME I/O board that existed in the Mark V turbine control system family; it would be missing this DS200SIOBH1ABA printed circuit board.

This would be missing the extensive revision history of this DS200SIOBH1 parent product DS200SIOBH1ABA PCB.

Hardware Tips and Specifications

As with any Mark V turbine control system range, this DS200SIOBH1ABA PCB utilises its own set of necessary hardware components and component specifications to achieve its intended SC2000 VME I/O board functionality.

As shown in the description of this DS200SIOBH1ABA PCB as a VME I/O board, this DS200SIOBH1ABA product is intended to be installed in a VME rack mount assembly.

Specifically on the VME P1 connector as it occupies a full VME slot.GE I/O Control Board The DS200SIOBH1ABA has 20 jumpers and 3 switch blocks with 6 switches in each block for a total of 18 switches.

It is also equipped with an LED and a 40-pin connector. Jumpers on the GE I/O Control Board The jumpers on the original DS200SIOBH1ABA board are set to factory default settings.

Before installing the board, you can review the information in the printed material for alternate settings for the jumpers and how they change the operation of the board.

Some jumpers have only one supported location and therefore cannot be changed. As mentioned earlier, the base board for this SIOB abbreviated General Electric product contains a diagnostic LED.

This LED illuminates when a larger Mark V Series VME rack is encountered accessing the DS200SIOBH1ABA PCB; in other words, this LED illuminates to indicate normal functional status during use.

When you find that you must replace the DS200SIOBH1ABA board, the best practice is to set jumpers in the new board to match the jumper locations on the old board.

This is part of the detailed installation strategy developed by General Electric and communicated in the original instruction manual for this DS200SIOBH1ABA PCB.

If the jumper settings match exactly, the DS200SIOBH1ABA board will perform the same operation and support drive performance.

To install the DS200SIOBH1ABA replacement board, remove the old board by first removing the screws that hold it in the board holder, and then remove the board from the drive using two hands.

Be careful to prevent the board from striking other components in the drive. Find a clean, dry surface nearby and flatten the static protection bag before placing the old board on top of the bag.

Open the sealed protective bag containing the replacement board and slide out the board. Hold it with two hands and place it next to the old board.

Finally, set the switch to match the switch position on the old board.

Before making any final purchase decision on this DS200SIOBH1ABA product, it is important to realise that this Mark V Turbine Control System range is a revised version of the original DS200SIOBH1 parent product.
