Product Description
This DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A printed circuit board from General Electric's Mark V Turbine Control System Series is defined in original GE Drive Systems and Mark V Series instructional manual documentation as a LAN Power Supply Board, as explained previously. The Mark V Turbine Control System Series that this DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A printed circuit board belongs to is one of the more recently-developed General Electric Mark product lines that utilizes the Speedtronic technology system developed by General Electric since the late 1960s. This DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A printed circuit board is actually not the original PCB developed for the Mark V Turbine Control System Series; that would be the DS215UPLAG1AZZ02 parent LAN Power Supply Board missing this DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A PCB's singular A-rated functional product revision.
Hardware Tips and Specifications
As visible upon a simple visual inspection of the assembly of this DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A PCB, this DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A LAN Power Supply Board makes use of an elevated number of hardware components and component specifications, given its possession of a special assembly version, optional software package, and singular, A-rated functional product revision. A highly-customizable product; the GE Drive Systems UPLAG Board DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A features one reset button, 28 jumpers, and 2 banks of configuration switches. The GE Drive Systems UPLAG Board DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A also is populated with 2 indicator LEDs and 1 fuse for diagnostic testing and voltage limitation purposes. The GE Drive Systems UPLAG Board DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A also is populated with a reset button which can resolve an issue if the board is exhibiting intermittent problems or has suddenly stopped functioning properly. This mentioned reset button doesn’t remove power from the board but does allow the instructions to reset, which often resolves pertinent issues with the DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A board.
The DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A board featured here also is populated with 2 sets of configuration switches. The ID of one bank is CFG1 and the ID of the other bank is CFG2. When you first install the original board from the factory, it is crucial to review the installation information presented in this DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A PCB's user guide, as this DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A LAN Power Supply Board is considered both a fragile and static-sensitive model of General Electric printed circuit board. To set the switches in the assembly of this PCB, it is best practice to use the eraser end of a pencil or other soft slender object to move a switch. Do not scratch the surface of the board by accidentally scraping or scratching against the board surface with a screwdriver or other hard tool; this will damage the product's functionality. When you replace the DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A UPLAG board, make note of the switch positions on the old board and carefully set the switches on the new board to match. Generally, it is best practice to reset the switches before you install the DS215UPLAG1AZZ02A board in its greater Mark V Series automated drive assembly.
