DS200CTBAG1ACC Overview

The Analog Termination Module General Electric DS200CTBAG1ACC is a Data Processor Termination Board designed for the Mark V control system. It serves as a critical interface for I/O signal conditioning and maintains COREBUS communication via a bypass relay, even during power loss.

Features and benefits

Core Function: Data Processor Termination Board (Analog Termination Module) for the Mark V Common Data Processor, typically installed in core <R5>.

Signal Compatibility: Accepts and conditions 4-20 mA I/O signals, as well as shaft voltage and current signals.

Critical Redundancy: Features a built-in bypass relay to maintain COREBUS communication during power loss to the CTBA board.

Communication Interfaces: Integrates both IONET and COREBUS communication interfaces for system connectivity.

Hardware Composition: Includes two terminal strips, vertical pin connectors, plug connectors, jumper switches, and resistor network arrays.

Revised Design: Represents an updated version of the base DS200CTBAG1 model, incorporating two functional and one artwork revision.

FAQ

Q1: What is the DS200CTBAG1ACC?

A1: It is a Data Processor Termination Board (Analog Termination Module) designed for GE's Mark V control system, typically installed in core <R5>.

Q2: Does this board have a special or custom assembly version?

A2: No. As indicated by the standard “DS200” series tag in its part number, it uses a normal Mark V assembly without special versions.

Q3: Are all three of its product revisions backwards-compatible?

A3: No. Only the first two revisions (which are functional) are backwards-compatible; the third revision (focused on artwork) is not.

Q4: What key redundancy feature does it include?

A4: It incorporates a bypass relay that allows COREBUS communications to continue even if power to the CTBA board is lost.

Q5: What types of signals does it accept?

A5: It accepts and conditions 4–20 mA input/output signals, as well as shaft voltage and shaft current signals.
