Product Description

The GE DC Power Supply and Instrumentation Board DS200SDCIG1A serves as an interface to DC2000 drives. Troubleshooting and usability of the board is improved because each fuse has an LED indicator that indicates when the fuse with which it is associated blows. You must complete the following steps to view the board and check for a lit indicator LED light.

Open the cabinet in which the board is installed and inspect the board and note any LED lights that are lit. The potential exists for high-voltage being present on the board so do not touch the board or any components around the board. Write down any information about the identifier of the fuse. Then, remove all current from the drive. Open the cabinet and test the board to make sure all power is removed from the board. You might have to allow some time for all power to exit the board to avoid damage.

You might be able to inspect the board for wiring errors or a short, depending on which fuse has blown. It might be that the board is defective and must be removed and replaced.

When you remove the board for inspection, keep it from touching other boards or devices in the drive. Also avoid touching the panels, cables, or the plastic snaps that hold the board in place. Also, be sure to carefully remove all the cables. Do not pull ribbon cables apart. Instead, hold both connectors with your fingers and disconnect the ribbon cable from the connector.
