Product Description
The GE RST Overflow Board DS200TCQCG1A is populated with 24 jumpers and 3 40-pin connectors. It also has 3 34-pin connectors and 1 16-pin connector. The ID assigned to the 16-pin connector is JC. The IDs assigned to the 40-pin connectors are JFF, JE, and 6PL. The jumpers on the GE RST Overflow Board DS200TCQCG1A serve to enable the installer to configure the board for the exact needs of the facility. When the original board is installed, the installer will review the information in the installation guide provided with the board. It contains a description of the jumpers and how the position of the jumpers can change how the board processes. By conferring with the engineering staff at the facility, the installer can set the jumpers to better meet the requirements of the facility. This is part of the drive installation procedure and might require some preinstallation communications between the installer and representatives from the facility to decide how best to set the jumpers.
However, once done, the jumpers stay in place and further configuration is not necessary. This is especially helpful when you plan to replace the board due to the fact that the installed board is defective. The only configuration necessary is to set the jumpers on the replacement board to match the jumper positions on the old board. To do that place the old board on a flat and clean surface. Then, wear a wrist strap and remove the replacement board from the sealed static protective bag. Place the board next to the old board and compare the jumper positions.
