Functional Description

DS200SDCCG1AFD is a Drive Control Card developed by GE. It is a part of Mark V control system. This board serves as the central processing unit for a drive or exciter, providing control functions for motor and drive operation. It features three 16-bit microprocessors and dual-ported RAM, allowing efficient data processing and real-time control. The SDCC connects to other system boards through multiple PL connectors, facilitating power input, communication with LAN and signal processing cards, and I/O management for AC and DC drives

Features

The SDCC houses the primary control circuitry and software required for precise drive and motor operation. At its core, it includes:

• Three 16-bit microprocessors: These microprocessors work together to execute drive control algorithms, manage system communications, and process I/O signals.
• Dual-Ported RAM (DPR): This allows two microprocessors to access memory arrays independently and simultaneously, improving processing speed and efficiency.
• Interface Circuitry: The SDCC interacts with other boards and external devices to form different types of AC and DC motor drives. This includes controlling and processing drive signals, motor parameters, and customer-defined I/O connections.
• Additionally, in TC2000 applications, the SDCC’s three microprocessors and interface circuitry perform additional system functions beyond standard drive control.

Card Connections and; Interfaces

Communicates with other control boards and external signals via eight primary connectors, designated as PL connectors. Each serves a specific function in the system:

• 1PL - Interfaces between the Power Supply/Interface Board (such as DS200IMCP, DCI, SDCI, or DCFB) and the SDCC.
• 2PL - Supplies ±5V, 15V, and 24V DC power inputs from the Power Supply/Interface Board to the SDCC.
• 3PL - Provides output signals from the SDCC to the LAN Communications Card (DS215SLCC).
• 6PL - Handles input/output (I/O) communication between the Drive Terminal Board (531X305NTB) or Simple Drive Terminal Board (DS200STBA) and the SDCC.
• 7PL - Manages I/O between the Signal Processor Card (531X309SPC) or Multibridge Signal Processing Card (DS200SPCB) and the SDCC (not present on SDCCG3 models).
• 8PL - Another connection for I/O between the Drive Terminal Board or Simple Drive Terminal Board and the SDCC.
• 9PL - Not used (not present on SDCCG3 models).
• 11PL - Outputs signals to meters (not present on SDCCG3 models).

These connections facilitate seamless data transfer between the SDCC and other control components, ensuring reliable drive operation.

Software Configuration and Tools

Requires specialized software tools for configuration, firmware updates, and parameter adjustments. The following tools are used for software management:

• ST2000: A DOS-based software used for configuring GE DIRECTO-MATIC 2000 control equipment. Requires the GEH-5860 instruction manual for complete usage guidance.
• GE Control System Toolbox: A Windows-based tool designed for configuring GE DIRECTO-MATIC 2000 systems. Users can refer to the GEH-6333 instruction manual for detailed software instructions.
• LynxOS Drive Configurator: A software package designed to run on the LynxOS operating system for configuring GE DIRECTO-MATIC 2000 control systems. Requires a compatible PC operating with LynxOS for full functionality.
