DS200DENCF1BDD integrated circuit board

Functional Overview
The DS200DENCF1BDD is a 24-channel discrete (digital) input module in the GE Mark VIe control system. Its primary function is to collect discrete signals (contact open/close signals) generated by field devices such as sensors,
 switches, and relays, convert them into digital signals that can be recognized and processed by the PLC or control system CPU,
and transmit the processed data to the GE Speedtronic turbine control system or other control equipment, enabling automated control and monitoring.

Certifications and Safety

This module is UL certified and can be used in both hazardous and non-hazardous locations. The UL certification covers various classes and divisions, and relevant UL mark documents are available for reference.

In order to meet the market’s growing demand for smart home systems and allow owners to manage devices in an efficient and sustainable way, ABB’s new R&D innovative solutions help end users make their entire homes “intelligent.”

One of the solutions will help customers manage their home devices in a more sustainable way. Prior to the official launch of this solution in October 2020, ABB will be exclusively demonstrating ABB-free@home® flex and its ABB-free@home® new app.

The new ABB-free@home® app controls ABB-free@home® flex, allowing users to manage blinds, lights and other functions via their phone’s Bluetooth connection. This would be ideal for homeowners looking to incorporate smart technology into one room and upgrade their home solutions in the future. Users can easily upgrade it to a complete ABB-free@home® smart home system in the future through the integrated system access point.

ABB-free@home® flex is designed to help people take control of their energy anytime, anywhere. Users can easily manage energy consumption on a handheld mobile device and freely control their home space, such as turning off the lights in the house when no one is in the room.

For more flexibility, users can use timers to set the lights to come on at specific times during the day or night, and can save scenes on the button, such as being able to move blinds to a preset position. It blocks the dazzling bright light in summer and saves energy.

For even more control, the app can also be connected to a motion sensor to adjust the lighting to different levels depending on the time of day, for example, reducing the lighting level to 30% when using the bathroom at night. This not only creates a more engaging user experience, but also further reduces energy waste.

To support new product launches, ABB has fully updated the ABB-free@home® application, bringing an application with complete functions, better performance and greater practicality. All existing ABB-free@home® users will be able to download the new and enhanced version from the App Store later this year.

Oliver Ilti Sberger , Global Head of ABB Group’s Intelligent Buildings Business Unit, said: “How can we use innovative technologies to create smarter living spaces and better user experiences? ABB has a clear vision on this topic. ABB-free@home® flex Series is a convenient way to bring intelligence to any room, not only increasing comfort but also helping users manage their energy use and consumption, which is what our Smart City Zero Emissions Vision initiative is all about. With the push for smarter, more flexible As demand for technology products increases, ABB-free@home® flex puts the control firmly in the hands of consumers, helping them save energy in their home and office environments.”

ABB has been leading the development of smart home technology for decades, with nearly 5 million connected ABB-free@home® system components installed in more than 40 countries around the world.
