DS200LDCCH1ANA

About the DS200LDCCH1ANA

• The DS200LDCCH1ANA is a Drive Control/LAN Communications Board developed by General Electric for their Mark V Control System Series.
• The Mark V Series has applications in gas, steam, and wind turbine control and management systems.
• It is a legacy series, meaning its manufacture has been discontinued by the original manufacturer.
• Despite being a legacy product, the Mark V Series is one of GE's more recent series to utilize their patented Speedtronic technology, first introduced with the Mark I Series in the late 1960s.
• The DS200LDCCH1ANA is not the original product for its functionality; that would be the DS200LDCCH1 parent PCB, which lacks the DS200LDCCH1ANA's full three-fold revision history.

Hardware Tips and Specifications

• The DS200LDCCH1ANA board features four microprocessors, each assigned a separate function:
  • One for drive control processing.
  • One for motor control processing.
  • One for co-motor processing.
  • One for LAN control processing.
• The board's internal processes are supported by standard Mark V Series hardware specifications, including:
  • Voltage-limiting and voltage-storing components (diodes, resistors, capacitors).
  • A thin layer of conformal-style printed circuit board protective coating.
  • Specialized hardware elements for voltage insulation.
• Configuration data is stored in six flash PROM components (U7-U21), which are factory-programmed but can be reprogrammed in the field.
• An additional stab connector is integrated for use in high-noise environments.

Troubleshooting and Resets

• If the DS200LDCCH1ANA is not functioning optimally, a soft reset is recommended.
• A hard reset (power interruption) should be avoided unless the drive malfunctions or a trip condition occurs.
• A soft reset clears faults while maintaining power to the board.
• One method for a soft reset is to press the Reset button on the board for about 5 seconds. This should only be done by a qualified individual due to the risk of electric shock or burn.
• It's important to note that the three product revisions in the DS200LDCCH1ANA's assembly alter its performance specifications and dimensions from their base-revised statuses.
