Features:
- Combines EX2000 IOS control-power and data-processing functions.
- Handles keypad, display, DLAN, serial, and optional network paths.
- Provides interfaces for local logic I/O and DS200IOEA expansion.
DS200DMCBG2A sits at the center of the IOS information flow, joining the local operator hardware to controller communications and expansion interfaces.
DLAN is a native path, while DLAN+ and Genius connectivity depend on the optional modules fitted to the operator-station configuration.
The board's selection boundary includes the IOS unit type and populated options; the same base function does not guarantee identical daughterboards or I/O expansion hardware.
The General Electric DS200DMCBG2A IOS Main Control Board may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Control Processing
- Main Board Role: DMCB is the primary control board of IOS, IOS+, and IEI units.
- Power Support: The board supplies the control-power requirements of the operator unit.
- Data Handling: Information from operator, network, and I/O paths is processed centrally.
- Unit Coordination: The installed IOS configuration determines the enabled interfaces.
Operator Interface
- Keypad Path: Operator key input is routed through the DMCB processing structure.
- Display Path: The board supplies data for the local operator display.
- Local Commands: Operator interactions are processed before exchange with the excitation controls.
- Status Access: The interface presents locally processed operating and diagnostic information.
Network Options
- DLAN: Drive Local Area Network communication is a primary DMCB path.
- DLAN+: An optional ARCNET-based module adds DLAN+ connectivity.
- Genius LAN: A controller daughterboard can add the optional Genius network.
- Option Matching: Network daughterboards must match the IOS hardware configuration.
I/O Expansion
- RS-232C: A serial communications port supports an additional access path.
- Local Logic: Optional local input and output interface boards connect through DMCB.
- DS200IOEA: The board provides the interface for the I/O expansion assembly.
- Population Boundary: Only interfaces fitted in the target IOS unit should be assigned.
