1 Introduction
EBL512 G3 Planning Instructions is a document
1
intended to be used
by planning engineers as well as service / commissioning engineers.
This document should be read in conjunction with the drawings
according to the valid Table of drawings and the EBL512 G3
Operating Instructions MEW01473.
When planning a fire alarm installation the national regulations have
to be obeyed. A lot of detector types can be used. Detector coverage
area and detector placing in the room / building, etc. are matters for
the planning engineers and are not described in this document.
Due to continual development and improvement, different S/W
versions might be found. This document is valid for S/W United
version 2.7.x. On the date / revision date of the document x = 0.
EBL512 G3 S/W United version 2.7.x. is a bit special since it can be
used only for EBL512 G3 units in a TLON Network with both
EBL512 units
2
and EBL512 G3 units, i.e. a mixed network.
Since the EBL512 G3 control unit (c.i.e.) is produced for many
countries the look, the texts, the functions, etc. might vary.
Products
Consists of one or more parts (HW) according to a Product Parts
List. A product has:
a type number
5000 EBL512 G3 c.i.e. Configured for 128, 256 or 512
addresses and with or without printer depending on article
number.
5001 EBL512 G3 c.i.e. No front panel and no Plexiglas in the
door. Configured for 128, 256 or 512 addresses depending on
the article number.
an article number is often the same as the type no. but a country
code can be added (e.g. SE for Sweden). If the letters PRT also
are added in the article number the product comes with a printer.
If digits are added to the article number they are showing the
number of addresses configured (e.g. 5000PRTSE-128).

The EBL512 units have to have a special S/W version (2.7.x), which makes
it possible to use EBL512 G3 units (5000 / 5001) together with EBL512 units
(1548 / 1549 / 1550), in a TLON Network, i.e. a mixed system.

a product name (e.g. EBL512 G3 CU, 128 alarm points, with
printer)
HW
A HW (e.g. a printed circuit board) has:
a type number (e.g. 5010)
an article number, often the same as the type no. but sometimes a
country code is added (e.g. 5010SE)
a product name (e.g. Main Board 128 alarm points)
a p.c.b. number (e.g. 9290-2B) and can also have a configuration
(e.g. CFG: 2) and a revision (e.g. REV: 1)
sometimes a S/W
S/W
A S/W has:
a version number (e.g. V2.7.x)
sometimes additional information, such as Convention (different
functions / facilities), Language, Number of addresses, etc.
PC S/W
A PC S/W is a program used for programming, commissioning, etc.
(e.g. Win512 V2.7.x). It has a version number (e.g. V2.7.x).

2 Definitions / Explanations
Definitions / explanations / abbreviations / etc. frequently used or not
explained elsewhere in the document.
2.1 PESN AB
Panasonic Eco Solutions Nordic AB
2.2 Alarm points
Units, which can generate a fire alarm (in the control unit), i.e. analog
detectors (sensors), conventional detectors, manual call points, etc.
2.2.1 Smoke detector
Analog and conventional photoelectric (optical) smoke detectors are
available.
2.2.2 Sensor
Sensor = Analog detector
2.2.3 Analog detector
Contains an A/D-converter. The Control Unit pick up the digital
values ("sensor values") for each detector individually. All
evaluations and "decisions" are then made in the c.i.e. Analog
detectors are addressable –an address setting tool is used for detector
types 430x.
An analog detector has to be plugged in an analog sensor base (ASB).
2.2.4 Analog (Sensor) Base (ASB)
An analog detector is plugged in an ASB, which is connected to a
COM loop (see below).
2.2.5 Conventional detector
Detector with only two statuses, i.e. normal and fire alarm. The
detector has a closing contact and a series alarm resistor. Normally
plugged in a conventional detector base CDB (see below) connected
to a conventional zone line input, with an end-of-line device. Some
types (e.g. water proof types) are connected directly on zone line.
2.2.6 (Conventional Detector) Base (CDB)
A conventional detector is plugged in a CDB, connected to a
conventional zone line input.
2.2.7 Addressable
A unit with a built-in address device, i.e. each unit is individually
identified, handled and indicated in the c.i.e.
(The unit can be an I/O unit with a zone line input, to which one or
more conventional "alarm points" can be connected.)

2.2.8 Conventional zone line input / External line
Input intended for one or more conventional alarm points. End-of-line
device in the last alarm point on the line.
2.3 Output unit
Addressable unit with programmable control outputs. Connected to a
COM loop (see below).
2.4 Output / Control output
Defined or programmable function. Relay output or voltage output
(supervised / monitored or not), in the c.i.e. or an output unit
connected on a COM loop.
2.5 Short circuit isolator (ISO)
Addressable unit for automatic disconnection of a part (segment) of a
COM loop (see below) in case of short circuit on the loop.
(According to EN54-2, one ISO is required per 32 alarm points.)
2.6 Display unit (D.U.)
Addressable unit for fire alarm presentation (incl. user definable alarm
text messages, if programmed).
2.7 COM loop
Loop = a cable, with two wires, to which all the addressable units can
be connected. Starts in the c.i.e. and it returns back to the c.i.e.
2.8 Control Unit / C.U. / C.I.E.
Control Unit = Control and Indicating Equipment = Unit to which the
alarm points are connected (via e.g. a COM loop). Indicates fire
alarm, fault condition, etc. Fire Brigade Panel & Control Panel, i.e.
the front, included or not included. Printer included or not included.
2.9 Fire Brigade Panel (FBP)
Unit intended for fire alarm presentation, etc. for the fire brigade
personnel. Can be a part of the control unit (a part of the front) or a
separate unit (external FBP).
In the ext. FBP, a printer can be included or not included.
2.10 Control panel (CP)
A part of the control unit (a part of the front), intended for the building
occupier, service personnel, etc., to "communicate" with the control
unit / system.
2.11 System
One control unit or several control units connected via a TLON
network (co-operating control units).

2.12 Network / TLON®/ LonWorks®/ Echelon /
Node / TLON Conn. board / Channel /
Backbone net / Router / Repeater
Brief explanations to the words/expressions to be found in connection
with a "network". See also separate TLON Technical description.
TLON®= TeleLarm Local Operating Network = a LonWorks®- based
network
3
for communication between several units/nodes. The
protocol is called LonTalk and the transmission works with doubly-
terminated bus topology (Echelon FTT-10). To connect a control unit
to the network, a TLON connection board has to be plugged in the
control unit. EBL512 G3 also supports redundant TLON system
communication. In this case two TLON connection boards have to be
plugged in each control unit.
A network can be one channel (FTT-10) or several channels,
connected via routers. (In the TLON Network a sub net = a channel.)

is space for two 28 Ah batteries. Larger batteries (up to 65 Ah) have
to be placed outside the c.i.e.
The batteries and the power supply are connected to the Main board
(5010), which handles the charging of the batteries, etc. See chapter
"Power supply", page 152 for more information.
3.2 S/W versions
Due to continual development and improvement, different S/W
versions can be found. When installing a new control unit in a system
with "older" control units, you might have to update the S/W in the
old control units (or download an older version in the new control
unit). The same S/W version is required in all control units in a
TLON network. In a mixed system must only be used the S/W
EBL512 version 2.7.x and EBL512 G3 United version 2.7.x
respectively.
3.3 Documents
The following documents are available:
Planning Instructions (this doc.)
Operating Instructions MEW01473
Drawings
Normally, information found in one of the documents is not found in
another document, i.e. the documents complement each other.
3.4 Applications
The mixed system is intended for small, medium and large
installations. The intelligent control units offer the system designer
and end user a technically sophisticated range of facilities and
functions. Programming and commissioning of the control units /
system is very easy. (PC software Win512 version 2.7.x and TLON
Manager.)
Start with one control unit and then later when it is required, add more
units. The TLON network makes it possible to install the control units
in one building or in many buildings.
3.5 PC software (S/W)
The following PC software is used together with the EBL512 G3
system.
3.5.1 Win512 version 2.7.x
Win512 version 2.7.x is used for programming and commissioning of
one or more EBL512 control units (version 2.7.x) but in a mixed
system (see chapter "Mixed system", page 14) it is also used for the
EBL512 G3 control units (United version 2.7.x), i.e. to:
create / download / backup (upload) the site specific data (SSD)
program convention / configurations / C.U. & system data / etc.

create and download the user definable text messages (alarm
texts) shown in the display in the C.U. / ext. FBP and other
Display units (AAU / EPU).
download S/W & EBL512 settings in an EBL512 C.U.
NOTE! For the EBL512 G3 control units in a mixed system,
Win512 version 2.7.x has to be used to download S/W.
Old SSD files can be opened in a newer (higher) version of Win512,
saved, edited and thereafter downloaded to an EBL512 G3 / EBL512
control unit with the corresponding version.
3.5.2 WinG3 version 1.1.x
In a mixed system, WinG3 version 1.1.x is used to download new
software and change max. number of addresses in an EBL512 G3
control unit.
3.5.3 TLON Manager
TLON Manager is used for the TLON Network programming, i.e
data / addresses / etc.
3.5.4 Web512 II Config Tool 2.7
A PC tool, Web512 II Config tool version 2.7.x is used for
configuration of the Web-server II (1598).

4 Control Unit / TLON Network
4.1 The TLON network
In a mixed system, up to 30 control units (EBL512 G3 United
version 2.7.x and EBL512 version 2.7.x) can be connected in a TLON
Network. At least one has to be an EBL512 control unit.
In a TLON Network each control unit works independent but has
nevertheless total access to all information in the system.
NOTE!
In a system with two or more control units in a TLON Network, pay
attention to the following:
A zone must not be distributed over the system, i.e. all alarm
points in a zone have to be connected to one c.i.e.
When the "Fire door closing" function is used, the alarm points
and their "belonging" output must be connected to the same c.i.e.
When the interlocking function is used, the input, the output and
the Interlocking Combination (area-point) must be in / connected
to one c.i.e. An input and an output can only be used in one
Interlocking combination.
When the AAF function is used, all devices within the same AAF
zone must be connected to the same c.i.e.
4.2 Single TLON Network / Redundancy in
distributed system
The EBL system can be build up as a single TLON Network system or
a Redundancy in distributed system.
In the single TLON Network, one TLON connection board
(1590/5090) has to be plugged in each control unit.
A fault in a TLON Network generates the following fault:
FAULT: Control unit xx has no contact
with control unit xx
NOTE!
For highest security in a mixed system the function Redundancy in
distributed system can be used in a system with a TLON Network.
One EBL512 control unit has to be the "master" unit and the other
control units in the system are "slave" units that are connected to the
