Selection Recommendations
Choose IS200ISBAH1ABA when your serial bus application requires expanded device support or enhanced protocol conversion. Verify “ABA” firmware matches your specific serial device and highway requirements before commissioning.
Precautions and Important Notes
Use ESD-safe handling. Verify field wiring and serial connections. Confirm “ABA” firmware supports your specific serial devices and highway requirements. Never interrupt firmware updates. Board draws 2.0A – verify rack power capacity. Document all configurations. Store spares in anti-static packaging. Do not mix IS200ISBAH1ABA with IS200ISBAH1A in redundant pairs without verifying identical firmware. Allow 30 seconds boot time. Test all serial and highway functions during commissioning. If replacing an IS200ISBAH1A with an IS200ISBAH1ABA, verify all serial devices are compatible with the new firmware before installation. Ensure serial and highway cabling does not exceed maximum recommended length. The IS200ISBAH1ABA is critical for serial bus management – ensure all settings are verified before placing in service. Regular verification of serial communication and highway performance is recommended.
