01 / VIBRATION SIGNAL PATH
A dedicated interface for turbine shaft monitoring
The TVIB terminal board accepts vibration probe wiring and connects to the VVIB processor board. The VVIB processes and digitizes displacement and velocity signals before passing the data through the VME bus to the controller. The TVIB is therefore a termination interface in the monitoring chain, not the vibration-processing board itself.

02 / PROBE COMPATIBILITY
Different sensors, different measurements
01 · PROXIMITY
Shaft displacement
Used for non-contact measurement of shaft movement relative to the probe.
02 · VELOCITY
Vibration velocity
Used for vibration measurement through compatible velocity probes.
Used for seismic vibration measurements in the relevant monitoring setup.
05 · PHASE / KEYPHASOR
Rotational reference
Provides a phase reference used in shaft vibration analysis and rotational measurements.
03 / SYSTEM CONNECTION
The VVIB connection defines the architecture
SIMPLEX
Single control path
The TVIB-to-VVIB cable arrangement follows the assigned processor connections. In the documented arrangement, two TVIB boards connect to one VVIB through two cables.
TMR
Three processor paths
The TVIB connection uses three cables to connect with the R, S and T VVIB processors. Cable routing must follow the installed redundant architecture.
H2 BOARD DETAIL
The H2 type includes BNC connectors for portable vibration data-gathering equipment, alongside the permanent probe-monitoring connections. The first eight probe types are selected through JP1–JP8 jumper positions.
04 / IMPORTANT REPLACEMENT CHECKS
Avoid a wrong-board substitution
A
Match the VVIB processor
The TVIB is a terminal board for the VVIB vibration monitor architecture. Confirm the associated processor and cable layout before ordering.
B
Confirm the H2 connector arrangement
The H2 type includes BNC connections for portable monitoring equipment. Check the actual board type and field connection requirements instead of relying on a similar-looking board.
C
Check the probe jumper setup
JP1 through JP8 select the probe type for the first eight inputs. Record the existing arrangement and verify it against the installed sensor types before operation.
D
Verify Mark VI system compatibility
TVIBH does not support Mark VIe I/O Packs. Do not substitute it for a Mark VIe I/O Pack or assume compatibility based on the shared Mark VI naming.
05 / ENGINEERING FAQ
FAQ · GE IS200TVIBH2BBB
1. Can GE IS200TVIBH2BBB be installed in a Mark VIe I/O Pack position?
No. TVIBH is used with the VVIB vibration monitor architecture and does not support Mark VIe I/O Packs. Confirm the existing system is the appropriate Mark VI configuration before selecting this board.
2. Why does GE IS200TVIBH2BBB need to be matched with a VVIB board?
TVIB provides the probe termination and signal connection path. VVIB performs the displacement and velocity signal processing and digitization. A TVIB replacement must therefore match the VVIB interface and the existing cable arrangement.
3. What is the purpose of the BNC connectors on GE IS200TVIBH2BBB?
The H2 type provides BNC connections for portable vibration data-gathering equipment. This allows maintenance teams to connect temporary monitoring equipment while the permanent probe wiring remains part of the turbine monitoring arrangement.
4. Why should the JP1–JP8 settings on GE IS200TVIBH2BBB be recorded before replacement?
These jumpers select the probe types for the first eight inputs. If the new board is configured differently, the signal path may no longer correspond to the installed sensors. Verify each jumper against the actual probe type and channel assignment.
5. How does GE IS200TVIBH2BBB connect in a TMR installation?
In the TMR arrangement, TVIB connects to three VVIB processors using three cables assigned to the R, S and T paths. The actual cable destinations and terminal assignments should be checked against the installed rack layout before reconnection.
