GE Mark V DS200SLCCG4A LAN Interface Communication Card

The key part of the number, DS200SLCCG4A, indicates it is a Group 4 (G4) version of the LAN Communication Card for the Mark V DS200 series. One notable aspect of later G4 versions is that some models simplify the board layout, sometimes omitting the dedicated circuitry for older protocols like DLAN or ARCNET found on earlier revisions, depending on the specific application configuration.

The GE Mark V DS200SLCCG4A LAN Interface Communication Card is a key component within the General Electric Mark V Speedtronic Turbine Control System.

Its primary function is to provide the Local Area Network (LAN) communication interface for the drive or exciter in the industrial control cabinet.


 

Function and Features

 

  • Core Role: The card, which uses the functional acronym SLCC (System/Serial LAN Communication Card), is responsible for managing and routing network traffic to ensure reliable data exchange between the turbine/drive control system and other networked devices, such as operator interfaces, engineering stations, and higher-level control systems.
  • System Compatibility: It is specifically designed for the GE Mark V DS200 Series, which is used for the control and management of industrial gas, steam, and wind turbine automated drive assemblies.
  • Design Characteristics:
    • Control/Processing: It integrates a LAN Control Processor (LCP) to filter and process communication signals.
    • Connectivity: It provides the necessary interface points for LAN protocols (often ARCNET or other GE proprietary links within the Mark V architecture).
    • Durability: The board typically features a normal PCB coating for standard protection against dust and moisture, ensuring reliability in industrial environments.
    • Operator Interface Support: The SLCC often works in conjunction with an attachable alphanumeric keypad and display module, allowing maintenance personnel to access diagnostics, read fault codes, and adjust system settings.
