• 3PL: Interface with the LAN Communication Card (SLCC).

• 6PL, 8PL: Interface with the Drive Terminal Board (NTB/3TB or STBA) for extensive I/O signal handling.

• 7PL: Interface with the Signal Processor Card (SPC/SPCB) - Not present on G3 models.

• 11PL: Outputs to meters - Not present on G3 models.

Diagnostic Indicators: Ten LED indicators that display detailed fault codes in either BCD (Faults 1-399) or Binary (Faults 400-1023) format. Can also be configured to coarsely display runtime variables.

Product Overview

The GE DS200SDCCG1AGD is a core component of General Electric's DIRECTO-MATIC® 2000 control system, serving as a high-performance Drive Control Card (SDCC). DS200SDCCG1AGD is designed to act as the "brain" for AC/DC motor drives and exciters, integrating the primary control circuitry and system software.

As a Group G1 product, the DS200SDCCG1AGD is primarily intended for AC2000, DC2000, and EX2000 drive applications. DS200SDCCG1A employs an advanced triple-processor architecture with high-speed data exchange via dual-ported RAM, enabling to handle complex motor control algorithms, system-level management, and real-time I/O interactions.

Product Features

Powerful Multi-Core Processing: The triple-processor architecture, with each unit handling dedicated tasks, ensures high-speed and precise execution of complex control routines, ideal for high-performance vector control or servo applications.

Comprehensive I/O Interface Capability: DS200SDCCG1AProvides a vast array of digital, analog, encoder feedback, and serial communication (RS-232C, RS-422) interfaces to connect and process signals from motors, sensors, host controllers, and peripheral devices.

Advanced Diagnostics and Maintenance:Intelligent LED Diagnostics: Rapid fault code identification via blinking patterns significantly reduces troubleshooting time.

Multiple Testpoints: Onboard testpoints allow for easy signal measurement and circuit debugging using an oscilloscope or multimeter.

Flexible Configuration Options: A combination of hardware jumpers and software parameters (stored in EEPROM) allows for flexible adaptation to different drive types, feedback devices, and control logics.

Modularity and Expandability: GE DS200SDCCG1A features provisions for mounting auxiliary boards (e.g., LAN Communication Card SLCC, Signal Processor Card SPC), facilitating easy system expansion.

Integrated Reset Circuits: DS200SDCCG1A Offers multiple reset methods, including a board-mounted reset button, remote reset input, and automatic hardware watchdog reset, ensuring safe system recovery from abnormal states.

Installation

Preparation: Clean off the card again before installation and ensure the jumper settings on the new board are identical to the timely board's avoid installation error.

Note: Install the replacement board in a protective bag to avoid damage and operate with holding the edge of the board on the flat surface. The suspect cables on the failed board can be plugged into the new board, marked for reconnection, with no soldering required.

Application Scope

This control card is designed specifically for the GE DIRECTO-MATIC 2000 series industrial drive platform. Typical applications include:

AC2000 AC Variable Frequency Drives: For controlling three-phase AC induction or synchronous motors in applications like fans, pumps, compressors, and conveyors.

DC2000 DC Drives: For controlling DC motors in applications requiring high starting torque and precise speed regulation, such as rolling mills and winders.

EX2000 Excitation Systems: For controlling generator field current.

Automation Equipment requiring high dynamic performance and complex control algorithms, where the capabilities of the DSP co-processor are particularly critical.
