DS200IIBDG1A Board Replacement

The board is mounted in the drive’s printed circuit board cabinet. Since the cabinet contains multiple boards and multiple cables routed throughout the cabinet, it is critical to follow some basic guidelines to prevent board damage.

When inserting or removing boards, avoid touching other boards in the cabinet and breaking components.

In some cases, you may need to remove a board to access a board that needs to be replaced.

Install the board back in the same position it was in when you removed it. Then reconnect all cables.

The board has multiple connectors and you must ensure that the cables are connected to the same connectors when installing the replacement board.

To reconnect them to the same connectors, inspect the defective boards and make a note of the connector identifier that indicates the connector to which the cables have been connected.

Then, make labels and attach them to the cables to indicate where the devices should be connected on the new board.

The board contains a 32-pin ribbon cable connector, and you must consider how the ribbon cable will be disconnected and reconnected during the replacement process.

If any of the thin wires are cut, the signal it carries will not be sent to or received by the board.

Two tabs on either side of the ribbon cable hold the connector in place.

To remove the ribbon cable, grasp the connector on both sides while releasing the two tabs. Then, remove the connector from the board.

In addition, the board contains one or more jumpers that configure the board to handle drive data in a particular way.

Other jumpers are set at the factory for testing purposes only. The board’s documentation identifies the jumpers and describes the jumper settings and how they affect the board’s behaviour.

Features

The board has 9 LEDs that indicate the processing status of the board. When lit, the LEDs are visible from inside the board cabinet and are coloured red.

When the board is powered up and the drivers are switched on, the LEDs indicate that the board is running.

Because the LEDs are only visible when the board is powered on, use extreme caution when opening the cabinet.

When viewing the LEDs, avoid touching any components in the drive and avoid dropping any metal, dirt, or other debris into the drive.

When lit, the LEDs are visible from inside the circuit board cabinet and are coloured red.

Precautions for Use

It is standard practice to use hazardous voltages during power-on testing, along with the following precautions.

Use only insulated current probes and isolated voltage detection

Do not probe around the board

Use only instruments rated for high volume tages present on the output terminals

Do not float on oscilloscope

FEATURES:

Topology: ARCNET supports both bus and star topologies. In a bus topology, all devices share a common communication medium, while in a star topology, each device is connected to a central hub.

Data Transfer Rate: ARCNET typically operates at speeds of 2.5 Mbps (Megabits per second) or 10 Mbps, depending on the version and implementation. It might not be as fast as some modern LAN technologies but was suitable for its time.

Medium Access Control: ARCNET uses a token-passing protocol for medium access control. A token is passed from one node to another, allowing the node holding the token to transmit data.

Cabling: The cabling used in ARCNET can vary, but it commonly employs coaxial cables. The type of cable and connectors used may depend on the specific implementation and version of ARCNET.

Network Size: ARCNET networks can support a limited number of nodes, typically ranging from a dozen to a few dozen devices. This makes it suitable for smaller networks.

Addressing: ARCNET devices are assigned unique addresses to enable communication within the network. These addresses are used to identify the source and destination of data packets.

Reliability: ARCNET is known for its deterministic and predictable behavior, making it suitable for real-time applications. The token-passing protocol helps ensure controlled access to the network.

Protocol Stack: ARCNET has its protocol stack, which includes the physical layer, data link layer, and a portion of the network layer. It is not directly compatible with the more common TCP/IP protocol stack.

It can be installed directly at the process measurement point. It is designed for water and wastewater applications in full pipelines.

The all-digital AquaTrans AT868 has no moving parts and requires minimal maintenance.

The on-board microprocessor utilizes patented Correlation Transit-Time™ technology for long-term drift-free operation. Automatically adjusts to changing fluid characteristics and dynamically configurable operating software simplifies programming.

Transit-Time Flow

Measurement Technology

Transit-Time technology uses a pair of transducers, each of www.abb-drive.com which sends and receives a coded ultrasonic signal through the fluid.

As the fluid flows, the signal transmission time in the downstream direction is shorter than in the upstream direction; the difference in transmission time is proportional to the flow rate.

The AquaTrans AT868 measures this time difference and uses programmed pipe parameters to determine flow rate and direction.

Wet or clamp-on sensors

Ultrasonic flow sensors are classified as wetted or non-wetted (clamp-on). Clamp-on sensors are clamped to the outside of the pipe and do not come into contact with the process fluid.

Wetted sensors are mounted inside the pipe or flow meter and come into direct contact with the process fluid.

Clamp-on sensors offer the greatest convenience and flexibility, as well as low installation costs, compared to traditional flow metering technologies.

When properly installed, wetted sensors provide the highest accuracy (better than 1% of reading) in most applications.

Dual Channel Models

An optional second channel measures flow in two pipes or the average of two paths on the same pipe for improved accuracy.
