PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IS220PDIOH1A is a Discrete Contact Input/Output Terminal Board for Mark VI / Mark VIe control systems. This discrete I/O pack mounts directly onto compatible terminal boards including TDBS and TDBT. It provides an electrical interface between Ethernet networks and discrete field circuits. The pack accepts up to 24 contact inputs and controls 12 relay outputs. Dual RJ45 Ethernet ports maintain concurrent network communications across distributed control networks.
The assembly contains an Ethernet processor board coupled to a discrete input and output acquisition board. Power input circuitry includes a soft-start circuit to limit current inrush upon power cable connection. Onboard flash memory stores module firmware that verifies hardware identity before initiating signal acquisition. Status light-emitting diodes deliver visual diagnostics for contact input states and relay command circuits. The pack also features an infrared port for local serial diagnostic communications.
