Product Description
The GE IOS + Power Connect Board DS200DPCBG1A features two wire terminal blocks to attach a maximum of 6 signal wires. The GE IOS + Power Connect Board DS200DPCBG1A also is populated with 1 fuse and one toggle switch.
When you replace the GE IOS + Power Connect Board DS200DPCBG1A it is necessary to connect the signal wires to the same connectors on the terminal blocks. To do that and also to properly disconnect the wires from the terminal blocks requires that you follow some guidelines.
Notice that the terminal blocks have identifiers for the individual connectors. Diagram the terminal blocks to provide yourself a plan showing the identifiers and also what terminals have wires attached to them. Tape on the signal wires the identifier they are attached to on the terminal block.
However, only touch the board when power is removed from the drive. Consult with an electrician who is familiar with the installation of the drive to understand how the drive is powered. The drive receives power from a power supply and the best practice is to remove the fuses from the power supply to remove power from the drive. Keep the fuses in a safe place but removed from the power supply so that someone doesn’t replace the fuses while the servicer is working on the replacement procedure.
Use a screwdriver to loosen the screw that retains the wire in the terminal. However, make sure the screwdriver doesn’t touch any other components in the drive. The screwdriver might scratch a board or damage components or cause components to fall off the board.
This PC board assembly has been discontinued by the OEM.
