FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION:

IS230TBAI1CH is an Analog Input/Output Terminal Board manufactured and designed by General Electric as part of the Mark VIe Series used in GE Distributed Turbine Control Systems. The Analog Input/Output (TBAI) terminal board supports 10 analog inputs and 2 outputs. The 10 analog inputs accommodate two-wire, three-wire, four-wire, or externally powered transmitters. The analog outputs can be set up for 0-20 mA or 0- 200 mA current. Inputs and outputs have noise suppression circuitry to protect against surge and high frequency noise. TBAI has three DC-37 pin connectors provided on TBAI for connection to the I/O processors. Simplex applications are supported using a single connector (JR1). TMR applications are supported using all three connectors. In TMR applications, the input signals are fanned to the three connectors for the R, S, and T controls. TMR outputs combine the current of the three connected output drivers and determine the total current with a measuring shunt. TBAI then presents the total current signal to the I/O processors for regulation to the commanded setpoint.

INSTALLATION:

Connect the input and output wires directly to two I/O terminal blocks mounted on the terminal board. Each block is held down with two screws and has 24 terminals accepting up to #12 AWG wires. A shield terminal attachment point is located adjacent to each terminal block. TBAI can accommodate the following analog I/O types:

• Analog input, two-wire transmitter
• Analog input, three-wire transmitter
• Analog input, four-wire transmitter
• Analog input, externally powered transmitter
• Analog input, voltage ±5 V, ±10 V dc
• Analog output, 0-20 mA
• Analog output, 0-200 mA

OPERATION:

TBAI provides a 24 V DC power source for all the transducers. The inputs can be configured as current or voltage inputs using jumpers (J#A and J#B). One of the two analog output circuits is 4-20 mA and the other can be configured as 4-20 mA or 0- 200 mA. The following table displays the analog I/O capacity of TBAI. Each 24 V DC power output is rated to deliver 21 mA continuously and is protected against operation into a short circuit. Transmitters/transducers can be powered by the 24 V DC source in the control system or can be independently powered. Jumper JO selects the type of current output. Diagnostics monitor each output and a suicide relay in the I/O controller disconnects the corresponding output if a fault cannot be cleared by a command from the processor.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

What is an Analog Input/Output Terminal Board?

An Analog Input/Output Terminal Board is a device used in electronic systems to interface between digital control systems and analog sensors or actuators. It facilitates the conversion between digital signals and analog voltages or currents.

What are the main functions of an Analog Input/Output Terminal Board?

The primary functions include converting analog signals to digital for processing (Analog-to-Digital Conversion - ADC) and converting digital signals to analog for output (Digital-to-Analog Conversion - DAC). This allows digital control systems to interact with the analog world.

Where are Analog Input/Output Terminal Boards commonly used?

These boards are frequently used in industrial automation, process control systems, data acquisition systems, and other applications where interfacing between digital controllers and analog devices is necessary.
