About the DS200STCAG1ABA
The DS200STCAG1ABA printed circuit board functions as a Turbine Communication card, although its official functional product description is that of an ARCNET LAN Driver Board. The DS200STCAG1ABA PCB was created and sold by General Electric as a replacement part for their Mark V Turbine Control System LM series. The Mark V Series that this DS200STCAG1ABA printed circuit board belongs to has specific applications in the management and control systems of popular and compatible wind, steam, or gas turbine automated drive assemblies.
The Mark V Series is still a highly-desirable product series as it is one of the final-developed General Electric product series to make use of their patented Speedtronic control system technology.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
The DS200STCAG1ABA can be used as an IONET-specific master for I/O in the <R> core of the Mark V system. Each I/O core must be fitted with an STCA board. Signals to the board enter through many different connectors, where they are conditioned and then written to the I/O Engine on the UCPB daughter board. The board is designed with configurable hardware including a JP2 jumper that allows the board to be factory tested. Additionally, the JP4 jumper offers users voltage selection for flash EPROM device needs. Software configuration may also be required. This includes pulse rate constants, synchronization settings, and compressor stall. Please be sure to refer to settings on the board you are replacing; it is best to configure your replacement board to mimic those settings. While this DS200STCAG1ABA ARCNET LAN Driver Board is classified as a normal Mark V Series printed circuit board in its internet-available instructional manual materials, it is a bit of a surprise that it is not classified as a smaller-size printed circuit card, given its placement on another Mark V Series motherboard product. This DS200STCAG1ABA PCB is mounted on the LBC586P Board in the R core location within its greater Mark V Turbine Control System Series automated drive assembly.
The DS200STCAG1ABA is typically mounted at the top of other I/O control boards, in the top slot along with boards like the:
There can be four I/O control selections within an enclosure cabinet. Refer to associated GE manuals for additional information. As with any Mark V Series printed circuit board made available to our new and reconditioned inventory here, this DS200STCAG1ABA PCB's assembly is considered to be robustly voltage-protected. This is achieved by this DS200STCAG1ABA PCB's base circuit boards' acceptance of a specific series of hardware components and component specifications; including basic styles of capacitors, resistors, transistors, and integrated circuits.
