DS200DTBBG1A Terminal Digital Connector Board GE

Configured for signal routing and terminal interfacing in Mark VI control system platforms, the GE DS200DTBBG1A (DS200DTBBG1A Terminal Board) provides direct physical/electrical execution. Hardware Specifications Parameter Specification Model DS200DTBBG1A Brand GE Fanuc Origin USA Weight 0.54 kg Dimensions Standard PCB Dimensions Operating Temp 0 to 60 deg C Power Consumption Passive Component Load Terminal Blocks 2 blocks, 95 signals per block Connectors 3 x 50-pin, Bayonet type Profinet / EtherNet/IP deterministic networks The DS200DTBBG1A serves as a primary signal distribution interface within the Mark VI architecture. The board utilizes high-density terminal blocks to facilitate I/O connectivity for field-level sensors and actuators. To ensure deterministic signal propagation, the board integrates a series of passive electronic components, including rectifiers and diodes, which condition the incoming signals before they are routed via the 50-pin connectors to the I/O processor. The layout supports rigorous backplane communication requirements, minimizing impedance and potential signal reflection during high-speed data acquisition. Frequently Asked Questions Q: Is the DS200DTBBG1A board capable of handling hot-swapping while the Mark VI cabinet is energized? A: No. Any extraction or insertion of the terminal board while power is applied to the backplane can cause transient voltage spikes, potentially damaging the I/O processor module or the terminal board connectors. Q: Are the 50-pin connectors keyed to prevent incorrect orientation during installation? A: Yes. The 50-pin connectors and the integrated bayonet locking mechanisms are keyed to ensure proper pin-to-socket alignment. Do not apply excessive force if resistance is encountered during cable connection. Field Installation Guidelines Verify that all power is removed from the associated Mark VI control rack before accessing the terminal compartment. Secure the PCB to the chassis using the standard mounting hardware, ensuring the board is leveled to prevent physical stress on the PCB substrate. Terminate signal wiring to the terminal blocks according to the specific system loop diagrams, ensuring each wire is seated firmly within the clamp. Connect the 50-pin ribbon cables to the designated headers, ensuring the bayonet locks are fully engaged to maintain connection stability under vibrational loads. Inspect all jumper settings (5 total) against the site-specific configuration document to ensure correct signal path routing before applying power.
