PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The General Electric IS220UCSAH1A is a Mark VI / Mark VIe series controller module. This unit features a Freescale 8349 processor running at 667 MHz on the QNX operating system. It operates from an input power source rated between 18 and 36 V DC at 12 watts. Conformal coating on the printed circuit board protects sensitive electronic circuitry from environmental contaminants. Natural convection cools the enclosure without internal cooling fans across the operating range of 0 to 65 degrees Celsius.
The controller module is packaged as a single boxed component designed for cabinet base-mounting. Ventilation grill openings on three sides support airflow throughout the chassis structure. The front faceplate provides six female Ethernet jack connectors alongside a single USB port. Up to three units can mount adjacent to each other for triple redundant control architectures. Front panel diagnostic LEDs indicate Link/Act, Power, Boot, Online, Flash, DC, and diagnostic status.
