I/O modules

Core Communication Hub for Mark VIe Control Systems

The GE IS200FCGEH1A IS200FCGEH1ADA Printed Circuit Board manages high-speed data exchange between multiple control modules. This board handles Ethernet and serial communication protocols for turbine systems. Therefore, you can connect various field devices to a single central controller.

Physical Dimensions and Weight Details

This printed circuit board measures 26.9 cm in length and 15.2 cm in width. Its total height reaches only 2.8 cm including all component tops. The GE IS200FCGEH1A IS200FCGEH1ADA Printed Circuit Board weighs exactly 0.45 kilograms. This lightweight design simplifies installation in dense control cabinets.

Connector Interfaces and Component Count

You will find one 48-pin VME connector on the rear edge. The GE IS200FCGEH1A IS200FCGEH1ADA Printed Circuit Board also features two RJ45 Ethernet ports and one DB9 serial port. These ports provide flexible connectivity for various network topologies. Inside the board, a single 10-layer PCB holds one hundred eighty-six discrete components. These components include Ethernet controllers, memory chips, and isolation transformers.

Energy Storage and Power Characteristics

This communication board stores minimal energy using ceramic filter capacitors only. It draws operational power from the 5V and 3.3V VME backplane rails. The GE IS200FCGEH1A IS200FCGEH1ADA Printed Circuit Board consumes approximately 6.8 watts during normal operation. Consequently, you will never need to replace any internal batteries.

Network Communication Specifications

Two independent Ethernet ports support 10/100 Mbps auto-negotiating connections. One RS-232 serial port provides legacy device connectivity at up to 115.2 kbps. The GE IS200FCGEH1A IS200FCGEH1ADA Printed Circuit Board includes built-in switching for daisy-chaining multiple boards. This switching eliminates the need for external network switches in small systems.

Memory and Processing Features

Board-mounted flash memory stores configuration parameters persistently. The GE IS200FCGEH1A IS200FCGEH1ADA Printed Circuit Board includes 64 MB of SDRAM for data buffering. A dedicated processor handles protocol conversion without burdening the main controller. Therefore, you get faster response times for time-critical turbine data.

Diagnostic and Environmental Data

Six status LEDs indicate power, link activity, and data transmission. The GE IS200FCGEH1A IS200FCGEH1ADA Printed Circuit Board operates reliably from -20°C to +60°C ambient temperature. The module also withstands 5% to 95% humidity without any condensation. For long-term use, the RJ45 ports support 1000 insertion and removal cycles.
