GE IS200VCMIH2CAA Product Specification
Product Overview
The GE IS200VCMIH2CAA is a VME Bus Master Communication Controller Board designed for GE’s Mark VI Speedtronic Turbine Control System, a cornerstone of industrial automation in power generation, oil and gas, and heavy machinery. As the central communication hub of Mark VI architectures, this module enables seamless data exchange between the CPU, I/O cards, and external devices, ensuring precise coordination of gas/steam turbine operations. Engineered with rugged hardware and advanced processing capabilities, the IS200VCMIH2CAA thrives in harsh environments, from offshore platforms to thermal power plants, where reliability and real-time performance are critical.
Featuring a Texas Instruments TMS320C32 32-bit digital signal processor and 32 KB dual-port memory, the IS200VCMIH2CAA executes complex control algorithms with deterministic precision. Its front panel includes three IONET connectors, a 9-pin serial port, and status LEDs (Run, Fail, Status) for real-time health monitoring. The board’s conformal-coated PCB and metal enclosure protect against dust, moisture, and electromagnetic interference (EMI), while a rugged design withstands vibration (75 G peak) and shock. Operating within a 0–60°C temperature range (with extended variants available), it ensures consistent performance in demanding industrial settings.
In automation systems, the IS200VCMIH2CAA acts as the backbone of Mark VI configurations, managing data flow between critical components like turbine speed sensors, fuel valves, and safety interlocks. Its dual backplane connectors enable integration with terminal boards (e.g., IS200TBCHH1AAA), while support for protocols like IONET and serial communication ensures compatibility with legacy and modern devices. The module’s role is pivotal in maintaining system synchronization, enabling precise control over turbine start-up sequences, load balancing, and emergency shutdowns.

Main Features and Advantages
Deterministic Communication Hub:
The IS200VCMIH2CAA serves as the primary interface for data exchange within Mark VI systems, ensuring sub-millisecond response times for critical control signals. Its IONET ports enable high-speed synchronization with I/O modules (e.g., IS200TBCBH1AAA), while the RS-232 port supports legacy device integration. This architecture minimizes latency in turbine speed regulation and load-sharing applications, enhancing overall system stability.

Rugged Industrial Design:
The module’s triple-layer conformal coating and metal enclosure protect against environmental hazards, making it suitable for offshore platforms, refineries, and other harsh environments. Hot-swappable design allows maintenance without system shutdowns, reducing mean time to repair (MTTR) and downtime costs. The board’s robust construction also ensures compliance with EMI/EMC standards, critical for maintaining signal integrity in high-noise environments.

Comprehensive Diagnostics:
Front-panel LEDs and built-in self-tests continuously monitor voltage levels, thermal stress, and communication health. Faults are logged with timestamped records, enabling rapid post-event analysis and predictive maintenance. This proactive approach helps identify potential issues—such as failing connectors or overheating—before they escalate into system-wide failures.
