Product Description
The GE I/O TC2000 Analog Board DS200TCCAG2B features one 80196 microprocessor and multiple PROM modules. It also contains one LED and 2 50-pin connectors. The LED is visible from the side view of the board. The IDs for the 50-pin connectors are JCC and JDD. The 80196 is a 16-bit microprocessor and it is integrated on the board. The microprocessor uses the firmware and instruction code stored on the EPROM modules. The EPROM modules contain all the information the microprocessor needs to function properly on the board.
The code can be erased from the EPROM and updated code written to the modules. However, when the board is being replaced the best practice is to load the same code on the new board. This is 1 step you can take to be assured that the new board will behave the same in the drive as the old board. To use the same code, you have to move the EPROMs from the old board to the new board. Take a screwdriver and insert it between the EPROM module and the socket. An opening for this is supplied on the end of each socket. Gently rock the screwdriver side to side to loosen the module. Move the screwdriver to the other end and perform the same action. The module will pop free. Wear an EDS preventive device, like a wrist strap, to handle the modules. Place the modules into a static protective bag immediately.
Press the modules straight into the socket of the new board. With the modules installed, the new board will use the same code as the old board.
