GE Electric | IS200TBCIS2CCD | Turbine Controller Interface Board
IS200TBCIS2CCD Product Overview
Functional Description:
The GE IS200TBCIS2CCD is a Turbine Controller Interface Board for the Mark VIe Speedtronic™ system. It acts as a communication hub between the main controller (,
, or racks) and I/O packs via dual-redundant fiber-optic links, enabling high-speed data exchange for critical turbine control functions.

Product Series
- Core component of Mark VIe Controller Series (compatible with IS200/IS215 racks).
Key Features
- Dual-Channel Redundancy: Auto-switchover if primary fiber fails (<10 ms)
- Hot-Swap Support: Replace without shutting down controller
- LED Diagnostics: Channel status (green=active, red=fault, yellow=standby)
- Error Detection: CRC validation & automatic retransmission
- Galvanic Isolation: 2500V AC (fiber-to-backplane)
- EMC Protection: Meets IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT) & IEC 61000-4-5 (surge)
Functions & Roles
- I/O Data Routing: Transfers signals between controller and TRLY, TREH, AIOH modules
- Redundancy Management: Synchronizes primary/backup fiber links
- Fault Reporting: Sends VDI bus errors to ToolboxST™
- Time Synchronization: Distributes IRIG-B timecode to I/O packs
- Controller Expansion: Supports ≤12 I/O packs per channel

Documentation & Compatibility
- Manual: GEH-6850 Vol. I (Mark VIe Hardware)
| Required Components | Compatible Controllers |
|—————————|———————————|
| Fiber cables: IS200FIBxx | IS215ACLEH1A (Mark VIe ) |
| I/O Packs: IS200-series | IS200ERPDH1A (Mark VIe) |
| Terminators: IS200TBCIT1A | IS200ERSCG2AED (Mark VIe ) | - Firmware: Requires ToolboxST™ ≥V04.02
Critical Notes:
- Fiber Requirements: 62.5/125 µm MM fiber only; max attenuation 3.5 dB/km
- Redundancy Rules: Both channels must terminate at same controller slot
- Slot Restriction: Install only in Slot 7 (JPD2 port) of Mark VIe controller
- Obsolescence: Part of legacy Mark VIe; migrate to EX2100e for modern plants
- Bending Radius: Fiber cables >50 mm to avoid signal loss
- Do Not Use: With single-mode fiber (use IS200TBCCG1A instead)
