1 Introduction
EBL512 G3 Operating Instructions is a document intended to be used
by the end-user and the fire brigade personnel as well as service /
commissioning engineers.
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 / rev date of this document x = 0.
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 alarm
points 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 alarm points 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 also the letters PRT
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 alarm points configured (e.g. 5000PRTSE-128).
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 type no. and sometimes is a
country code added (e.g. 5010SE)
a product name (e.g. Main Board 128 alarm points)
a p.c.b. number (e.g. 9290-3B) and can also have a configuration
(e.g. CFG: 2) and a revision (e.g. REV: 2)
sometimes a S/W
S/W
A S/W has:
a version number (e.g. V1.1.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. 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 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 33xx / 430x.
An analog detector has to be plugged in an analog sensor base (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 only two statuses, i.e. normal and fire alarm. The
detector contains 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 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.)
