The GE DS200SIOBH1ABA is a VME Stand I/O Board module used in the GE Speedtronic Mark V turbine control system. It functions as a universal I/O interface card, enabling communication between turbine control processors and external field devices through a standardized VME backplane architecture.
This module is part of GE’s legacy SC2000 VME I/O platform, widely deployed in gas, steam, and wind turbine control systems, where reliable signal exchange, modular expansion, and deterministic control performance are essential for safe operation.
