Selection Guidelines
-
When to choose:
-
Critical digital I/O and signal processing applications
-
Harsh environments (coastal, offshore, chemical)
-
Applications needing high-speed frequency/PWM/counter functions
-
-
When to choose “H1A” instead: For clean, controlled environments where conformal coating is not required.
-
Configuration: Configure inputs/outputs for sourcing/sinking per bank.
-
Signal Processing: Use frequency measurement for speed sensors; PWM for analog output simulation; high-speed counters for pulse counting.
-
Compatibility: Fits all Mark VIe VME64x racks. Requires ControlST v6.0 or higher.
Operational Precautions
-
Wiring: Follow GE wiring diagrams—correct polarity for external field power.
-
Field Power: Properly size external 24 VDC supply.
-
Signal Processing: Test frequency/PWM/counter functions during commissioning.
-
LED Diagnostics: Green = input/output on; Amber = fault; Red = module fault.
-
Fault Log: Access 750-event log via Toolbox ST.
-
Coating Care: Use GE-approved cleaner; inspect annually under UV—rework voids per GE FSB.
-
Hot-Swap: Remove/insert slowly under power.
-
Spare Stock: Maintain 1 spare per 3–4 racks; “AAA” backward-compatible with all DSRG sockets.
-
ESD: Handle by edges with grounded wrist strap—coating does not protect connectors.
-
Storage: Anti-static bag with desiccant at –40 to +85 °C; rotate every 3 years.
