Product Description
The GE Basic Drive Terminal Board DS200STBAG1ADC provides connection points for I/O signals. Multiple revisions of the DS200STBAG1ADC exists and each is an improvement over the former versions in terms of reliability, usability, and cost effectiveness. Note that some components might change position from one revision to the next and the components might seem different in appearance. Note that compatibility is maintained throughout the revisions and that you can confidently install a new revision of the same board.
When you call service it is helpful to be able to identify the board in question. Before you call write down the order number, model number, serial number, and other identifying information.
Connectors CP1PL through CP4PL are only for factory use only. They are used for supplying 115 VAC power to the board in a bench environment for testing purposes. Y19PL, YP20PL, and Y21PL are connectors on the board that are also only for factory use. The three connectors enable testing of the brake control circuits at the factory.
The DS200STBAG1ADC uses multiple jumpers to enable the user to set up various configuration options. Both JP4 and JP5 are used to configure the RS232C serial port for communications. One position is used for modem communications and one position is used for serial communications to a laptop. If you find that you are unable to successfully initiate serial communication to a laptop, you might switch the pin positions of JP4 and JP5 to see if the signals are compatible with the laptop.
