GE DS215DMCAG1AZZ01A Gen/Log/Key/Interface Card

GE DS215DMCAG1AZZ01A is a critical, highly-integrated printed circuit board assembly used in General Electric’s industrial control systems, most famously the Speedtronic Mark V Turbine Control System.

The name “Gen/Log/Key/Interface Card” describes its multi-faceted role within the control system’s architecture.

⚙️ Key Specifications and Function

Feature Specification/Description
Product Type Drive Main Control Assembly (DMCA) / Processor Interface Board
Series/Family GE Speedtronic Mark V Turbine Control Systems and associated Drives (e.g., DC2000)
Core Function Interface and Logic Processor. This board often serves as an interface between the main turbine control processor (like the UCOM board) and the various system components it manages.
Gen/Log/Key/Interface This descriptive name refers to the multiple logical functions it handles: * Log: Manages and buffers data for event and fault logging. * Key: Handles functions related to the keypad interface (OC2000 or similar HMI) and local operator controls. * Gen/Interface: Handles general I/O interfacing, data acquisition, and communication with other logic sections of the drive or turbine control.

Architecture It operates within the modular VME rack of the Mark V system, managing crucial logic and data flow necessary for reliable operation.
Firmware Role The suffix AZZ01A indicates that the board comes pre-loaded with a specific firmware/software package, making the hardware and software a single, field-replaceable unit.
Status Like most DS200 and DS215 series boards, this module is discontinued by the original manufacturer (GE) but is widely supported through the industrial surplus and repair market.

In essence, the DS215DMCA board bridges the gap between the main computational power and the system’s logging, operator interface, and lower-level logic, allowing the primary processor to focus on core control execution.
