Selection Recommendations
Choose IS200ISBEH2ABB for demanding serial expansion applications requiring both enhanced “2” series processing and specialized expansion firmware. Verify “ABB” firmware matches your specific expansion requirements. Confirm rack power supply capacity for the “2” series board.
Precautions and Important Notes
Use ESD-safe handling. Verify field wiring and serial connections. The IS200ISBEH2ABB draws 2.5A (+5V) – verify rack power supply capacity before installation. Confirm “ABB” firmware supports your specific serial expansion requirements. Never interrupt firmware updates. Document all configurations. Store spares in anti-static packaging. Do not mix IS200ISBEH2ABB with other variants in redundant pairs without verifying identical firmware. Allow 30 seconds boot time. Test all expansion and highway functions during commissioning. Ensure serial and highway cabling does not exceed maximum recommended length. The IS200ISBEH2ABB is critical for serial expansion management – ensure all settings are verified before placing in service. Consider power supply upgrades if multiple “2” series boards are installed. Regular verification of serial communication and expansion performance is recommended. If replacing a “1” series board, verify all devices and configurations are compatible with the new firmware before installation.
