1 Introduction
EBL128 Planning Instructions is a document
1
with information of
special interest for planning engineers as well as service /
commissioning engineers.
It should be read in conjunction with the EBL128 Operating
Instructions, since most of the information in one of the documents is
not found in the other document and vice versa.
It should also be read in conjunction with the EBL128 drawings
2
,
according to the valid Table of drawings.
A Product Leaflet is also available at:
http://www.panasonic-fire-security.com/pewfste/en/html (Data sheets)
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 are to be found. This document is valid for the EBL128 S/W
version 1.1.x. On the date of this document is x=2.
EBL128 S/W version 1.1.x support and some functions require the
EBL128 main board 4556 with p.c.b. no. 9285-6A. S/W version 1.1.x
also support main board with p.c.b. no. < 9285-6A (e.g. 9285-5A).
EBL128 is produced for many countries, accordingly the look, the
texts, the functions, etc. might vary from country to country.
Products
Products consists of one or more parts (H/W) according to a Product
Parts List. A product has:
a type number (e.g. 4550)
an article number, often the same as the type no. but sometimes
a country code is added (e.g. 4550SE)
a product name (e.g. EBL128 Control & Indicating
Equipment, 128 addresses)
H/W
A H/W (e.g. a printed circuit board) has:
a type number (e.g. 1556)
an article number, often the same as the type no. but sometimes a
country code is added (e.g. 1556SE)
a product name (e.g. Main Board 128 addr.)

a p.c.b. number (e.g. 9285-6A) and can also have a configuration
(e.g. CFG: 1) and a revision (e.g. REV: 2)
sometimes is a S/W (software) downloaded.
S/W
A S/W has:
a version number (e.g. V1.1 or V1.1.0)
sometimes is additional information, such as Convention
(different functions / facilities), Language, etc. added.
PC S/W
A PC S/W is a program used for programming, commissioning, etc. It
has a version number.
