Product Description
This DS200GLAAG1ACC printed circuit board from General Electric is better-classifiable as a Gate Lead Adapter Assembly, as based on its functional description in Mark V Series instructional manuals. With this being true, this particular DS200GLAAG1ACC printed circuit board or PCB for short is not actually the first model of Gate Lead Adapter Board manufactured by the GE industrial giant for their Mark V Series; that would be the unrevised parent DS200GLAAG1 PCB. Despite this DS200GLAAG1ACC Gate Lead Adapter Board's adoption of the highest-possible three total significant product revisions, this DS200GLAAG1ACC product is not considered to have any sort of Mark V Series special assembly version.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
Now that some of the basic series identification information and functionality for this DS200GLAAG1ACC Gate Lead Adapter Assembly has been explored, it is possible to contextualize its various hardware inclusions and specifications. The GE Gate Lead Adapter Board DS200GLAAG1ACC features two terminal blocks with a maximum of 6 wires, two 2-pin connectors, and two 4-pin connectors. The DS200GLAAG1 also contains 2 LEDs. Theses diagnostic LEDs on the side of the board indicate processing activity and status and provide a quick, visual indicator of the activity/status of the board. For example, if you open the cabinet door and locate the board in the drive and notice that the LEDs are flashing or are lit continuously, it indicates that the board is healthy and is processing as designed. If the LEDs are off, it indicates that the board is not working. If possible refer to the written material that came with your original DS200GLAAG1ACC board to read a description of the LEDs and what the various states of activity indicate.
If more troubleshooting is required because you suspect that the DS200GLAAG1ACC board is not functioning properly, you can access the diagnostic tools on the drive to examine all the components in the drive and thereby gain a full report on the health of the drive. You can use the information to replace boards or other components and improve the performance of the drive. You must use the control panel located on the side of the drive to access the diagnostic tools; the menu-driven user interface on the control panel contains selections you can use to initiate the diagnostics. The control panel also features keys to enable you to scroll through the selections, including the selection to start the diagnostic tools. All of the basic hardware inclusions on the internal assembly of this DS200GLAAG1ACC Gate Lead Adapter Board should receive at least some degree of adequate protection from this device's standard normal-style coating of PCB protection.
