1 Introduction
EBL128 Operating Instructions is a document
1
with information of
special interest for the end user and the fire brigade personnel, as
well as service / commissioning engineers.
It should be read in conjunction with the EBL128 Planning
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)
Due to continual development and improvement, different S/W
versions are to be found. This document is valid for S/W version
1.1.x. On the date of the document is x=2.
NOTE! Regarding upgrade from S/W version 1.0.x to version 1.1.x
see chapter "Software (S/W) download", page 71.
EBL128 is produced for many countries, accordingly the look, the
texts, the functions, etc. might vary.
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 type no. but sometimes is a
country code 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 type no. but sometimes is a
country code added (e.g. 1556SE)
a product name (e.g. Main Board 128 addr.)
a p.c.b. number (e.g. 9261-3A) and can also have a configuration
(e.g. CFG: 1) and a revision (e.g. REV: 2)
sometimes a S/W
S/W
A S/W has:
1
File name: K:\PRO\FIRE\128\Doc\V1.1.x\MEW01091 (Rev 3).doc
2
Dimensions & overviews, connection diagrams, etc.

Panasonic Electric Works Nordic AB

a version number (e.g. V1.11 or V1.1.0)
sometimes additional information, such as Convention (different
functions / facilities), Language, etc.
PC S/W
A PC S/W is a program used for programming, commissioning, etc. It
has a version number.

2 Definitions / Explanations
Definitions / explanations / abbreviations / etc. frequently used or not
explained elsewhere in the document.
2.1 PEWN AB
Panasonic Electric Works Nordic AB
2.2 Alarm point
Unit, which can generate a fire alarm in EBL128, i.e. a sensor, a
conventional detector, a manual call point, etc.
2.2.1 Smoke detector
Two types of analog and conventional smoke detectors are available:
photo electric (optical) and ionization.
2.2.2 Sensor
Sensor = Analog detector
2.2.3 Analog detector
Contains an A/D-converter. EBL128 pick up the digital values
("sensor values") for each detector individually. All evaluations and
"decisions" are then made in EBL128. Analog detectors are
addressable –an address setting tool is used. An analog detector has
to be plugged in an ASB.
2.2.4 (Analog) Sensor Base (ASB)
A sensor is plugged in an ASB, which is connected to a COM loop
(see below).
2.2.5 Conventional detector
Detector with two states, normal or fire alarm. The detector contains a
closing contact and a series alarm resistor. Some types are plugged in
a CDB (see below) but some types are water proof and are not
plugged in any base.
(Conventional detectors are normally plugged in a CDB (see below)
and connected to a conventional zone line with end-of-line device.)
2.2.6 Conventional Detector Base (CDB)
A conventional detector is plugged in a CDB and connected to a
conventional zone line input.
2.2.7 Addressable
A unit with a built-in address device (e.g. a manual call point). Each
unit is individually identified, handled and indicated in EBL128
(The unit can consequently be an I/O unit, to which one or more
conventional "alarm points" can be connected on the zone line.).
