Ge’s DS200DMCBG1AED printed circuit board product was originally designed and manufactured for the Mark V family of turbine control systems, as described in its initial release of guidance manual materials. These instructional materials can be a bit difficult to access online, as they are overshadowed by the traditional status of the Mark V series, which was eventually encouraged by the discontinuation that occurred within a year of its original Mark series release. The larger Mark V series of this DS200DMCBG1AED PCB, as indicated by the full extended series name attached above, has a range of applications in the control and management systems of popular and compatible wind, steam and gas turbine automation drive components and is considered a highly anticipated product family in the general automation industrial market. Because it exists as one of the last GE Mark product families to be developed, the patented Speedtronic control system technology is integrated into a range of devices. The Speedtronic control system technology used in the Mark V series of this DS200DMCBG1AED PCB was originally introduced with the release of the Mark I series in the late 1960s.
Hardware tips and specifications
The GE DOS DUP processor board DS200DMCBG1AED contains three 26-pin connectors, one 40-pin connector, and 19 jumpers. The board also has 2 leds. The GE DOS DUP processor board DS200DMCBG1AED also has two fuses to provide overvoltage protection. If there is an instantaneous surge in the circuit board’s power supply, the components in the fuse will blow and the circuit board will stop working completely, or stop working in the circuit protected by the fuse. If the fuse is rated incorrectly, the components on the circuit board will be damaged. Therefore, if you replace a fuse, only use a replacement of the same rating. Information about fuses is provided in the information that comes with the original circuit board when you leave the factory. Alternatively, you may find a rating printed on the fuse. Typically, fuses for such DS200DMCBG1AED PCBS are considered part of a larger voltage protection strategy involving various styles of Mark V Series standardized voltage limiting hardware components, including but not limited to various styles of Mark V Series transistors, resistors, diodes, etc. Finally, the recognizable blue drum electrolytic capacitor. This DS200DMCBG1AED PCB is not an original development of its specific Mark V Series functionality; These are actually three important product versions of the DS200DMCBG1, the parent of the DOS DUP processor board, which does not use this DS200DMCBG1AED PCB. Although this DS200DMCBG1AED product is considered to belong to the first group of products in the Mark V turbine control System family, the true meaning of this classification must be described as unknown given the lack of dedicated online instruction manual materials related to this DS200DMCBG1AED board due to its functional full family obsolete.
Checking the condition of the fuse is a quick initial step to troubleshooting the board, as it only requires a visual inspection. If you suspect that the board is not operating as expected, you can open the board door and locate the fuse on the board. If one or both fuses blow, disconnect all power to the drive, remove the circuit board, and replace the fuse. Restart the drive and determine if the board is up and running again. If the problem persists, the next step is to look at the 2 leds on the board. Leds are identified as CR2 and CR12 on the circuit board and are red when lit. Given that this DS200DMCBG1AED PCB belongs to the now obsolete Mark V Turbine Control System Legacy series, it is not surprising to find that a large number of the original printed instruction manual materials on the Web do not consider it. Therefore, the DS200DMCBG1AED functional product number itself can be regarded as the main source of information about the DS200DMCBG1AED board; Encode various details in a series of continuous functional naming segments. For example, the DS200DMCBG1AED functional product number begins with a dual-function DS200 series label, which entrusting the normal Mark V series component of the DS200DMCBG1AED PCB and its domestic original manufacturing location. Some other related hardware details revealed through the PCB’s DS200DMCBG1AED feature product number include:

Frequently asked questions about DS200DMCBG1AED
Are the three important product versions of the DS200DMCBG1AED PCB considered backward compatible?
Nooooo. Only the first two versions of this DS200DMCBG1AED PCB can be considered backward compatible as they exist as functional styles matching the Mark V Series product version.
Where exactly is this DS200DMCBG1AED board made?
This DS200DMCBG1AED PCB is manufactured at GE’s factory site in Salem, Virginia.
