Product Description
The General Electric Digital I/O Board DS200TCDAG1A features one microprocessor and multiple programmable read-only memory (PROM) modules. It also contains 1 block made up of 10 LED lights and a pair of 50-pin connectors. The GE Digital I/O Board DS200TCDAG1A also is populated with 8 jumpers and 1 green LED that is visible from the side of the board. The PROM modules are removable from the board and they reside in a socket embedded on the board. When you want to replace the board or if you want to replace the PROM module for any reason, you can obtain a hand tool that is expressly designed for removing and installing the PROM modules.
You must keep in mind that the information on the PROM modules is easily corrupted or destroyed by static buildup. Always wear a wrist strap when you work on the board or any other board or component in the drive. When the wrist strap is connected to a metal desk or chair, the static is attracted to the grounded object and leaves your body and the board.
When the General Electric Digital I/O Board is installed and the drive is operating, you can view the board cabinet from outside the drive and quickly glance at the board and if the green LED light is lit up and flashing, you know that the board is functioning as normal and no intervention is required. When not lit, you can investigate the cause and resolve the issue.
