Product Description
The GE EX2000 Firmware Board DS215UDSAG1A features one 1 80196 microprocessor and several erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) modules. The GE EX2000 Firmware Board DS215UDSAG1A also is populated with 21 4-character displays and 32 LEDs. The board is situated in the drive board cabinet so that the operator can view it and read the information provided by the 4-character displays and the 32 LEDs. The operator can act upon the information provided and also monitor the activity of the drive. If an error occurs with the drive, the information about the error is provided on the display and the LEDs.
If a trip condition occurs the display will provide information about it. A trip condition causes the drive to power down automatically to prevent damage to the drive. For example, if the temperature of interior of the drive rises above a threshold, the drive displays an over temperature condition and automatically shuts down. Another trip condition is if an over current condition arises. That is, if too much power is applied to the drive, the over current condition shuts down the drive. If a motor overload condition occurs, the drive will also automatically shut down. This might happen if too much workload is applied to the drive. The display will provide a code that IDs the condition.
Once you identify the trip condition, you can investigate the cause and resolve it. For example, if the over temp condition happens, you can ensure that air moves freely through the drive. This helps remove heat and keeps it from building up in the interior of the drive.
