The board manages connectivity between the R5 core and the STCA\/QTBA modules, ensuring signal integrity for 4-20 mA loops and shaft-specific instrumentation. In the event of a localized power loss on the CTBA module, an onboard bypass relay maintains COREBUS communication, preventing system-wide disruption. Connectivity with the PD core's TCPD board allows for continuous power source monitoring. Firmware flash compatibility is not supported; system integration is managed through hardware-defined signal paths and dedicated terminal wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: What is the function of the onboard bypass relay during a power failure?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The bypass relay is configured to maintain COREBUS communication continuity if the CTBA module experiences a loss of power. This allows other modules on the bus to continue data exchange without interruption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQ: Can the 4-20 mA inputs be scaled via software?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: No. The CTBA board acts as a passive termination point. Scaling of 4-20 mA signals must be performed within the higher-level controller logic of the connected STCA or R5 core processors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eField Installation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure the Mark V LM rack is fully de-energized before mounting the module to prevent damage to the backplane connectors or unintended shorting of 4-20 mA loops.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVerify all field wiring for shaft instrumentation and 4-20 mA signals, ensuring proper shielding is terminated to the designated ground lug to minimize noise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle the board by the edges to avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) exposure to the bypass relay and bus communication circuitry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAfter installation, confirm that the IONET and COREBUS link LEDs (if present on associated modules) indicate successful synchronization with the STCA and QTBA boards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"General Electric","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53039058846005,"sku":"DS200CTBAG1A","price":66.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/7630\/5461\/files\/DS200CTBAG1ADD_cc331dd9-417c-4caf-a52e-d46ae1c52a2d.jpg?v=1782458724","url":"https:\/\/www.5gplc.com\/products\/ge-ds200ctbag1a-analog-termination-module","provider":"High Five PLC Solution Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
