Functional Description

DS200DTBAG1AA is a contact input termination module developed by GE. It is a part of the Mark V control system. In essence, the Contact Input Termination Module (DTBA) plays a vital role in integrating contact inputs into the control system architecture. Its interface with TCDA and configure contact input functionality, including failsafe options, underscore its importance in ensuring the reliable and safe operation of industrial processes. This integration enhances overall system efficiency, responsiveness, and safety, contributing to optimized performance and operational excellence in industrial settings.

Features

• The Contact Input Termination Module (DTBA) is an component situated within digital cores Q11, Q21, and Q51 of the system architecture. Its primary function revolves around connecting the initial set of 46 contact inputs directly to the TCDA (Digital Analog Module) within the same digital core.
• Serves as a pivotal interface for contact inputs, facilitating their seamless integration into the control system. Operators have the flexibility to configure these inputs within the TCDA IO Configuration settings. One notable configuration option is the ability to invert the contact sense. This inversion capability ensures failsafe functionality for contact inputs, enhancing operational reliability and safety protocols.
• By linking contact inputs to the TCDA, streamlines the process of monitoring and responding to critical signals from various equipment and systems. This integration supports the efficient management of industrial processes by providing real-time feedback and enabling swift responses to operational changes or emergency situations.
• The capability to invert contact sense within TCDA configurations is particularly crucial in industrial environments where safety is paramount. Inverting the contact sense allows for failsafe operation, ensuring that any abnormal conditions detected by contact inputs prompt immediate and appropriate responses from the control system.
• Module's placement and configuration options within digital cores Q11, Q21, and Q51 offer operational flexibility. This setup accommodates diverse system configurations and applications, allowing for tailored deployment based on specific operational needs and environmental conditions.
