Functional Description

IS200TBAOH1BAA is an analog output terminal board developed by GE. It is part of the Mark VI series. The analog output terminal board (TBAO) supports 16 analog outputs with a current range of 0-20 mA. These outputs transmitts control signals to various components within the system. Its design features, including terminal blocks and connectors, ensure seamless integration and efficient operation within the control environment.

Features

• Generation of Current Outputs: Current outputs are generated by the I/O processor, which can operate either locally (Mark VIe) or remotely (Mark VI). This flexibility allows for seamless integration with different generations of control systems.
• Noise Suppression Circuitry: To ensure reliable and accurate signal transmission, current outputs from the TBAO are equipped with noise suppression circuitry. These circuits protect against surge and high-frequency noise, maintaining signal integrity even in challenging operating environments.
• Terminal Blocks and Connectors: Features two barrier-type terminal blocks for customer wiring, providing a convenient interface for connecting external devices or subsystems. Additionally, it includes six D-type cable connectors, facilitating easy integration with other system components.
• Analog Output Current Range: The analog output current range of the terminal board spans from 0 to 20 mA, providing a versatile signal output capability crucial for various control and monitoring applications.

Installation

• Mounting Procedure: The terminal board is affixed to a vertical mounting plate, providing stability and support during operation.
• Wiring Analog Outputs: The 16 analog outputs are directly wired to two I/O terminal blocks situated on the left side of the board. Each terminal block accommodates two 3.0 mm (#12AWG) wires with 300 V insulation per point, using spade or ring type lugs. Two screws secure each terminal block in place, ensuring a secure connection. Adjacent to each terminal block, a shield terminal strip is attached to chassis ground, enhancing electrical safety and performance.
• Cable Connections: In Mark VI systems, cables with molded plugs establish connections between the D-type connectors and the VME rack housing the VAOC processor. For simplex configurations, two cables are utilized, while six cables are employed for TMR setups. In Mark VIe systems, PAOC I/O packs are directly plugged into designated D-type connectors on the board. Special side mounting brackets support the PAOC I/O packs, ensuring secure attachment and optimal functionality.
