Product Type: Exciter Regulator I/O Board
Availability: In Stock
Series: EX2100
Functional Description
IS200ERIOH1AAA is an exciter regulator I/O board developed by GE. It is part of the EX2100 series. The Exciter Regulator Main I/O Board (ERIO) serves as a vital component within the EX2100 regulator control systems, catering to both simplex and redundant configurations. Its primary function lies in providing the necessary I/O interface for customer and system I/O operations, facilitating seamless communication and control within the system architecture.
Role in Simplex Applications
- In simplex applications, the board is mounted within the Exciter Regulator Backplane (ERBP). Here, it assumes the critical task of interfacing customer I/O signals for other essential components such as the Exciter PT/CT Terminal Board (EPCT) and the Exciter Contact Terminal Board (ECTBG2).
- Additionally, it handles system I/O signals for components like the Exciter Regulator Dynamic Discharge board (ERDD) and the Exciter Regulator Options Card (EROC), ensuring smooth functionality and integration within the simplex configuration.
Redundant Configurations
- In redundant configurations, the board continues to play a pivotal role by providing seamless I/O interface functionality, albeit within a redundant system setup.
- Its role remains consistent, ensuring reliable communication and control between various system components, thereby enhancing system robustness and fault tolerance.
Features
- Form Factor and Connectors: Adopts a single-slot double-height (6U) form factor and features both P1 and P2 backplane connectors, each serving distinct purposes in the interface hierarchy.
- Functionality of Connectors: While the P1 connector serves as a slave interface for communication with other system components, the P2 connector acts as the primary interface for I/O signals and connections with other backplane-mounted boards.
- External Connections: The faceplate integrates two 25-pin sub-D connectors, strategically positioned to establish direct connections with external components such as the ECTB and EPCT terminal boards.
- Enhanced Versatility: The dual-connector setup and external connectors enhance the versatility, enabling seamless interaction with various system elements and external components.
Application Data
- Form Factor and Connectivity: Boasts a single-slot double-height (6U) form factor, ensuring compatibility and efficient utilization of space within the system setup. Equipped with both P1 and P2 96-pin backplane connectors, the board facilitates robust connectivity and communication within the system.
- Interface with Terminal Boards: Functionality extends to direct interaction with terminal boards such as the Exciter Contact Terminal Board and Exciter PT/CT Terminal Board. This interaction is facilitated through two 25-pin sub-D receptacle connectors located on the ERIO faceplate, ensuring seamless integration and communication between the ERIO and these essential components.
- Diagnostic Capabilities: Furthermore, it enhances diagnostic capabilities through the inclusion of a 9-pin sub-D receptacle connector labeled "TEST" on its faceplate. This connector serves as a diagnostic interface, enabling the monitoring and troubleshooting of system performance and functionality.
