Functional Description

DS3800HUMB1B is a Universal Memory Card developed by GE. It is a part of the Mark IV control system. With its robust design, configurable jumpers, and EPROM module support, it plays a critical role in storing and managing control programs and operational data. Proper handling of EPROM modules and careful configuration of jumpers ensures optimal system performance, reliability, and longevity.

Features

• PC Board Design: Robust Universal Memory Board designed for seamless integration into the GE Mark IV system.
• A reset toggle switch for resetting board functions.
• A red indicator LED that provides clear status signals for the operator.
• EPROM Modules: The board features multiple erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM) modules. These modules are essential for storing system control programs and operational parameters.
• Long-term data storage: Easy reprogramming and updates when needed. The EPROM modules ensure that critical data is preserved and accessible during turbine operations.
• Configurable Jumpers: Equipped with 30 jumpers. These jumpers provide flexibility by enabling users to customize the board’s configuration based on operational requirements. Jumpers play a crucial role in Adjusting board settings for compatibility and Fine-tuning memory operations for optimal performance.

Quad Divisions

• Quad A: Includes jumpers and single-pin connectors for customized input/output adjustments.
• Quad B: Supports memory operations and includes specific jumper settings for optimization.
• Quad C: Provides modular control to manage processing functions efficiently.
• Quad D: Dedicated to EPROM operations and houses 4 EPROM module sockets. Each quad operates independently and includes configurable components, such as jumpers and single-pin connectors, ensuring flexibility and tailored functionality.
• Quad D and EPROM Module Sockets: Quad D is a critical area that houses 4 EPROM module sockets. These sockets are designed to simplify the installation and replacement of EPROM modules.
• Handling EPROM Modules Safely: EPROM modules are sensitive to static electricity, which can corrupt or erase the stored data. Proper handling procedures include:

Storage

• Always store EPROM modules in static-protective bags when not in use.
• Static Protection
• Wear an anti-static wrist strap during handling.
• Attach one end of the strap to your wrist and the other end to a grounded metal object, such as a workbench or table leg.

Installation

• Remove the module from its protective bag carefully.
• Align it properly with the designated EPROM socket in Quad D.
• Avoid direct contact with the pins or sensitive components to prevent contamination or static discharge.
• Following these precautions ensures that the EPROM modules remain undamaged and function correctly.
