DS200ACNAG1A is an ARCNET LAN Connections Board manufactured by General Electric as a part of the Mark V series used in gas turbine control systems. The ACNA terminal board serves as the connection for the ARCNET data link between the main controller, IOS, protection module, and mark V turbine control panel. Termination is made using a coaxial cable. Each ACNA can terminate two coaxial cables. Connector ARCPL is used only on the ARCNET model. The ARCNET Board is a simple PCB with two BNC connectors that are readily installed and removed on a Mark V or EX2000 drive system because it is located externally. Four metal film resistors (R1/R2/R3/R4), two transistors, one diode, and three capacitors (C1/C2/C3) are among the components. Two apertures rimmed with metal cut into either side of the card make up the board. GND1 and GND2 are the designations for these. Two communications relay devices are located in the center of the board. Relay schematics are printed on the upper surface of both components.
A single six-pin male vertical pin terminal connector is located along the centerline of the board, and two female BNC plugs complete the ARCNET Connection Card. These plugs are intended to make LAN communication easier.
