2 Overview
2.1 The FT1020G3 system
FT1020G3 is a microprocessor controlled intelligent fire alarm system, intended for
Analogue addressable smoke detectors, as well as conventional detectors and manual call
points. Programmable control outputs and output units are available. Up to 1020
addresses can be connected to each Control Unit (CIE). Figure 1 presents an overview of
the FT1020G3 System.
FT1020G3 is available in several types, versions and configurations. It can be used as
stand-alone Control Unit or connected to a TLON network, i.e. in a "system" with up to 30
Control Units. Each Control Unit has access to all information.
FT1020G3 is designed and assessed to the Australian Standard AS7240.2, AS7240.4 and
NZS4512:2010. The Fire Brigade Panel controls and indicators are incorporated as part of
the faceplate and conform to AS4428.3:2010.
2.1.1 Printer
The Control Unit FT1020G3 can be fitted with an optional printer
1
.
2.1.2 Expansion boards
Up to six expansion boards can be mounted in FT1020G3 CIE. The following expansion
board types are available:
Product type no.
Product name
4580
8 zones expansion board
4581
8 relay outputs expansion board
4583
Inputs and outputs expansion board
For more details, refer to chapter "Expansion boards 458x”, page 24 and drawings F728,
F729 and F731.
2.1.3 Power supply
The primary power source is a switch mode power supply, 230 VAC / 24 VDC, 6.5 A (150
Watt).
The standby power source is a backup batteries (2 x 12 V). In the standard cabinet, up to
24 Ah batteries can be fitted. Larger batteries (up to 65 Ah) require additional battery box.
The batteries and the switch mode power supply are connected to the Main board (5010).
See chapter "Power supply", page 177 for more information.
2.2 Software (S/W) versions
Due to continual development and improvement, S/W versions are being updated from
time to time. When a new FT1020G3 Control Unit is required to be installed in a network
system with "older" Control Units, the software in the older Control Units must be updated
(or download an older version in the new Control Unit). The S/W version must be the
same in all Control Units in a TLON network.

2.3 Documents
The following documents are available:
Technical / Programming Manual (this document)
Operation Manual
Connection diagrams
Information found in one document is normally not to be found in another document, i.e.
the documents complement each other. Product Leaflet for FT1020G3 and other units
are available on Brooks web site: http://www.brooks.com.au.
Some important information might be exist in the operation manual as well as this
manual e.g. specifications / limitation, SSD and software download, etc.
2.4 Applications
The FT1020G3 system is intended for small, medium and large size installations. The
intelligent Control Units offer the system designer and end user a technically sophisticated
range of facilities and functions. Programming (PC software EBLWin and TLON Manager)
and commissioning of the Control Units / system is very easy.
Start with one Control Unit and then when it is required,add more units. TheTLON network
makes it possible to install the Control Units in one building or in many buildings.
Separate documents are available for TLON Manager, Web-server, etc.
2.5 PC software (S/W)
The following PC programs are used together with the FT1020G3 system. For standalone
FT1020G3, the TLON Manager is not used.
2.5.1 EBLWin
The PC program EBLWin is used for programming and commissioning of one or more
Control Units, i.e. to:
Autogenerate, i.e. to identify the units connected on a COM loop and make default
settings, which can be edited, saved and used as site specific data (SSD).
Create, download and backup (upload) of site specific data (SSD)
Download new system software version, settings, conventions, configurations,
Control Unit & system properties, etc.
Create and download the user definable alarm text messages shown in the display
in the Control Units and other Display Units (1728 & 1736).
Display thefire alarms,faults and disablements as well as reset, acknowledge and
re-enable, etc.
ConfiguretheWeb-serverII (5098); create anddownload /make a backup (upload)
of the configuration data as well as download of Web-server software.
The EBLWin must have the same version number as the system software EBL512 G3
version number e.g. 2.2.x and 2.2.x respectively. Only x may be different, it indicates a
small correction and is not required to be the same.
Old SSD files can be opened in a newer (higher) version of EBLWin, saved, edited and
thereafter downloaded to an FT1020G3 units with the corresponding version.
EBLWin key 5094 is a USB dongle that is required on your PC in order to gain access to
log on and download SSD files.

Technical/Programming Manual
FT1020G3 Rev 2.2.1
13
Notes: The SSD files saved in one version of EBLWin is not backward compatible with
any other earlier versions of PC configuration e.g. WinG3.
It is highly recommended to backup (upload) the SSD file before the system
software (EBL512 G3) can be downloaded,
2.5.2 TLON Manager
The PC program TLON Manager is used for the TLON Network programming, installation,
etc. (TLON Manager 1.2 and TLON Manager 2.0.x can be used).
For more information refer to the TLON Manager technical manual and the next chapter.

Technical/Programming Manual
FT1020G3 Rev 2.2.1

3 TLON Network
For further details refer to “TLON Technical / Operation Manual” M437, see also chapter
“TLON connection board 5090” page 50.
3.1 FT1020G3 TLON network
FT1020G3 system can be one Control Unit (CIE) or up to 30 Control Units connected in
a TLON Network.
In a TLON Network, each Control Unit operates independently but has nevertheless total
access to all information in the system.
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 CIE
When the "Fire door closing" function is used, the alarm points and the outputs
activated by these alarm points must be connected to the same CIE
When the interlocking function is used, the input, output and the Interlocking
Combination (area-point) must be connected to one CIE. An input and an output
can only be used in one Interlocking combination.
When the AAF function is used, all devices within the same AAFC zone must be
connected to the same CIE.
3.2 Redundant TLON Network
The FT1020G3 system can be build up as a single TLON Network or as a redundant
TLON Network.
A single TLON Network is only allowed when more than one main board (5010) are
mounted in the same cabinet. In this case, only one TLON connection board (5090) is
required to be plugged in the main board. Whereas in a distributed systems, redundant
TLON Network must be used, 2 TLON connection boards (5090) have to be used in each
Control Unit.
In the single TLON Network, only one network (Network no. 0) connection is used but in a
redundant TLON Network, two networks connections (Network no. 0 and Network no. 1)
must be used. In normal conditions, Network no. 1 is only supervised / monitored until
Network no. 0 fails to establish the communications between the control panels.
The redundant TLON Network supports full functionality. In case of a network fault (i.e.
open circuit or short circuit) in one of the TLON networks, a fault for this TLON Network is
generated as shown in the following fault message:
FAULT: Control Unit xx has no contact
With control unit xx, network x
Where network x = Network no. 0 or Network no. 1.
3.3 Routers
In a TLON network, it is recommended to use TP/FT routers in order to split the TLON
network into separate FTT-10 channels / segments with the following objectives:
Provide galvanic isolation between TLON segments.

Technical/Programming Manual
FT1020G3 Rev 2.2.1
15
Increase the maximum cable length between TLON segments.
Reduce unnecessary communications traffic on the respective network links.
Improve efficiency of the communications channel.
Up to 6 control panels can be connected to one channel i.e. one segment.
When the TLON is divided into more than one segment, the short circuit will affect the
communication between the Control Units in this segment only, the communication
between Control Units in other segments are not affected. The fault messages will be
generated in every Control Unit. However In a redundant system, the network will continue
to communicate via the second TLON network.
Dividing the TLON network into segments may assist in fault finding, faults on the network
e.g. disturbances etc., will be easier to locate and service.
Note: In retrofit network application where the cable integrity is uncertain, routers may
also be required to improve the communications between the TLON segments.
The recommended TP/FT10 router is LPR10, Brooks stock number FTG3 ROUTER. It is
also recommended to use the DIN rail mounting plate, stock number FTG3 ROUT PLATE.
3.4 Network connections
The communications between control panels in a network system can be established using
one of the three following options:
3.4.1 Twisted pair TLON network
The twisted pair cable connection between control panels and cable specifications are
shown in drawings F738-01, F738-02 and F738-03.
The recommended cable is twisted pair 1.5 mm², Brooks stock number BCA0898 or
equivalent. 1 mm² Twisted pair cable can also be used depending on the distance between
the control panels. If a screened cable is used, the shield must be connected to the CIE
earth point.
3.4.2 Fibre optic TLON network
Third party TP/FT10 to fibre optic routers have become obsolete e.g. LRW112 series.
However LRW102 series repeaters are still available.
It is possible to connect a TP/FT10 channel to a fibre optic channel using a Fibre Optic to
TP/FT10 repeater.
A fibre optic network communications can be achieved by using fibre optic repeater e.g.
LRW102 in conjunction with a TP/FT10 router e.g. LPR10. This combination replaces the
fibre optic routers LRW112 series when more than 10 control panels connected in a TLON
network. Great care shall be taken during planning, installation and commissioning.
The fibre optic link offers an easy way to extend the distance between TLON network
segments using high speed back bone fibre optic network link. The maximum distance
between the fibre optic routers varies between 5 Km to 30 Km depending on the type of
fibre.
The fibre optic solution to network FT1020G3 control panels is shown in Figure 2 and
Figure 3 below. The LPR10 router must be used when the number of networked control
panels is more than 10 panels as shown in Figure 2.

Technical/Programming Manual
FT1020G3 Rev 2.2.1
16
Figure 2 Redundant fibre optic network for more than 10 control panels
When a number of control panels less than 10 is required in a TLON network, the traffic
will not be very heavy and the LPR10 router may not be required as shown in Figure 3
Figure 3 Redundant fibre optic network for up to 10 control panels
The type of fibre optic repeater is dependent on the cable type e.g. single or multi-mode,
distance between C.U.’s, etc. Care must be taken when selecting the repeater type.
Note: A TLON network of FT1020G3 control panels may consist of fibre optic segments
and twisted pair segments.
3.4.3 TCP/IP TLON network
LonWorks Internet server such as iLon 600, can be used as an internet (or any IP-based
LAN or WAN) pathway for TLON.
The transition from TP/FT10 to IP network opens the opportunity to use a large range of
infrastructure products e.g. fibre optic converters.
Note: a network of fire alarm system is always connected via a dedicated network wiring,
great attention must be taken when choosing an IP network as a pathway for TLON
should be used for autonomous Control Units only. The efficiency of the IP based
communication is dependent on the efficiency of the infrastructure of the IP network.
