Description
The GE General Electric DS3800HLNC1A1A is a Network Control Board for the GE Mark IV Speedtronic turbine control system. The DS3800HLNC family is identified as a Network Controller / Control Board and is used in compatible GE gas and steam turbine control applications. The board includes a microprocessor, one 40-pin connector, an amber status LED, eight EEPROM module sockets, and 21 configuration jumpers. The EEPROM modules contain firmware and instruction code used by the board during control-signal processing, so the installed firmware configuration should be verified when replacing an existing board. The supplied condition is NEW.
