Product Description
The DS200ADGIG1AAA board component from General Electric is part of the company’s Mark V Speedtronic system, as mentioned above. This DS200ADGIG1AAA printed circuit board or PCB for short is actually not the original Mark V Series Auxiliary Genius Interface Board that was manufactured for the Mark V Series specifically; that would be the DS200ADGIG1 parent printed circuit board missing this General Electric product's three significant A-rated product revisions.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
This DS200ADGIG1AAA Auxiliary Genius Interface Board is made up of its own specific set of hardware component inclusions and component specifications, which fortunately for us are described in original Mark V Series datasheets available on the internet. The primary board of the DS200ADGIG1AAA is factory drilled at each corner. This DS200ADGIG1AAA unit is designed with a carrier board and a secondary daughterboard attached to it, and is marked with the GE logo and with wiring codes. While the edge of the board is made of traditional PCB strata, the majority of this board is covered with a black topcoat a typical of Mark V Series products. This part of the board is nearly devoid of mounted components. In the upper third of the DS200ADGIG1AAA printed circuit board where this coating disappears, the board is populated with several right-angled and vertical pin connectors, integrated circuits, resistors, and test points. The board also has a number of jumper pins that will allow the user to change circuits to meet their own particular needs. This board has four standoffs that connect the daughterboard to the main board.
The Mark V daughterboard made useful to the DS200ADGIG1AAA PCB is populated with additional integrated circuits. These ICs are typically marked on their top surface with their original manufacturing numbers if you require additional information about each chip. The board is approximately eight inches by six inches, which is convenient as it typically installs in the drive cabinet of the Mark V Series. The unit will screw mount in using the factory-made holes located along the board edges. This DS200ADGIG1AAA Auxiliary Genius Interface Board is considered a static-sensitive GE PCB, so it is essential to unpack this Mark V Series product with the aid of an attached grounding strap. The three significant product revisions that have been made to this DS200ADGIG1AAA General Electric product offering may increase the overall dimensions and performance specifications of this device.
General Electric offers some general considerations concerning normative use of this DS200ADGIG1AAA Auxiliary Genius Interface Board. As introduced in original General Electric instructional manual literature, this DS200ADGIG1AAA PCB was not created with the intention of downloading Mark V Series drive EEPROM data, as this data will have to be downloaded with the use of a Mark V Series RS-232 port or keypad.
