Introduction
EBL128 Planning Instructions is a document1 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 drawings2,
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)

2.2.1
Smoke detector
Two types of analog and conventional smoke detectors are available:
photo electric (optical) and ionization.
2.2.2
Analog detector
Contains an A/D-converter. EBL128 picks up the digital values
("sensor values") for each detector individually. All evaluations and
"decisions" are then made in EBL128, i.e. by advanced algorithms.
Analog detectors are addressable – an address setting tool is used. An
analog detector has to be plugged in an ASB.
2.2.3
Sensor
Sensor = Analog detector
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.).

Applications
EBL128 is intended for small and medium installations. The
intelligent control unit offer the system designer and end user a
technically
sophisticated
range
of
facilities
and
functions.
Programming (via PC S/W Win128) and commissioning is very easy.
3.5
PC S/W
Win128 is used for programming and commissioning, i.e. to:
create / download / upload (backup) the site specific data (SSD)
download new S/W version, language (text file), EBL128 settings
(e.g. convention), etc.
create / download the alarm texts shown in the display in EBL128,
ext. FBP and/or AA units.
The Win128 S/W shall have the same version number as the EBL128
S/W version number, e.g. 1.0.x. Only x may be different. Old SSD
files can be used with a newer EBL128 S/W version. Open and save
the old SSD file in the new Win128 version before the download. If a
backup is required, use the same Win128 version as the EBL128
version.

The FBP is used by the fire brigade personnel to see which alarm
point / zone having activated the fire alarm(s), silence alarm devices,
reset alarms, etc. In the display (LCD, 2x40 alphanumeric characters),
the information displayed on the first row is depending on how many
alarm points / zones having activated fire alarm, convention and
language.
On the second row is, for the activated alarm point / zone, an alarm
text shown, if programmed. For more detailed information regarding
the display information, see the EBL128 Operating instructions.
Required fire brigade personnel manoeuvres are performed via the
FBP in EBL128 or via an external FBP 1826 / 1828.
Instead of external FBPs 1826 / 1828, German Fire Brigade Control
Panels (Feuerwehr-Bedienfeld) FBF 2003 and/or German Fire
Brigade Indicator Panels (Feuerwehr-Anzeigetableau) FAT 2002 can
be used.
The CP is used by the EBL128 owner, service personnel, etc. to
"communicate" with EBL128, e.g. for monthly tests, disablements
commissioning, maintenance and service. Access codes for different
access levels are required. A keypad is used to get access to the menu
tree, i.e. main and sub menus for data input / output, manoeuvres, etc.
The CP also holds several system status LEDs.
4.1
COM loop
EBL128 has one COM loop (0), to which the loop units are connected.
Connections to "J1:1-4" according to drawing 128-21. On the COM
loop can theoretically 127 COM loop units be connected (i.e. address
1-127). The exact number of addresses that can be used and the cable
length are depending on the cable type (cable resistance) and the total
COM loop unit current consumption (i.e. the type and number of loop
units). See chapter "Current consumption", page 134 and drawing
128-11. Each COM loop unit has a technical address and each alarm
point and zone line input has a presentation number (zone-address).
See the EBL128 Operating Instructions for more information.
If one or more addressable Short Circuit Isolators (SCI 4313 / 4370)
are used, the loop will be divided into "segments", i.e. the part
between two isolators or between EBL128 and one isolator. In case of
short-circuit on the COM loop only the affected segment will be
isolated, which will minimise the number of units "disabled". See
Figure 9, page 43.
Break (cut-off) or short circuit on the COM loop
Normally EBL128 communicates with the units in the A-direction
only and is in the B-direction checking the COM loop voltage only,
which shall be > 12 V DC. There can be no one, one or up to eight
addressable Short Circuit Isolators, 4313 / 4370 (SCI), connected on
the COM loop.

In case of short-circuit or a break (cut-off) on the COM loop, EBL128
will in order to localize it, do the following:
The COM loop voltage and communication will be turned off.
Because of that all isolators will also be turned off, i.e. the L
(SA) contact in each isolator will be "open".
The COM loop voltage and communication will be turned on
again.4 The isolators will now be turned on one after another
in the A-direction, until it is not possible to turn on any more
isolator, i.e. the isolator closest to a short-circuit will not be
turned on alt. the isolator closest to (just before) a break will
be turned on but the isolator after a break can of course not be
turned on.
The COM loop communication will now start in the B-
direction also and the isolators will be turned on one after
another, until it is not possible to turn on any more isolator,
i.e. the isolator closest to a short-circuit will not be turned on
alt. the isolator closest to (just before) a break will be turned
on.
In case of short-circuit on the COM loop, only the segment(s)
between the now turned off isolators will be isolated.
One or more fault messages will be shown in the EBL128
display, see below.
The fault messages will be different depending on if it is a single or
double break or short-circuit on the COM loop, as well as if there is
no one, one or several isolators connected on the COM loop, see
following chapters.
In any case, each unit not found by EBL128 will generate a fault:
FAULT: No reply xx-xx

4.1.1
A single break (cut-off) on the COM loop
If not all units are found when communicating in the A-direction
only, but when communicating in both directions, it must be a single
break (cut-off) on the COM loop. One fault will be generated and the
following fault message will be shown:

FAULT: Cut-off SCI n <-> SCI n
n = A, B, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 depending on if no one, one or several
isolators are used. A & B are the built-in control unit isolators in the
A- and B-direction respectively.
If no isolator is used the information will be: A<->B.
If one isolator (no. 0) is used: A<->0 or 0<->B
If two isolators (no. 0 and no. 1) are used: A<->0, 0<->1 or
1<->B
...and so on.
The break (cut-off) is found in the specified segment, e.g. A<->0.
Each 10th minute a new attempt is made to communicate in the A-
direction only.
When the fault is corrected (no break / cut-off) the communication
automatically returns to communicate in the A-direction only.5
4.1.2
Several breaks (cut-offs) on the COM loop
If not all units are found when communicating in the A-direction
only, and not when communicating in both directions, there must be
two or more breaks on the COM loop. A "no replay fault" (see
above) will be generated for each unit not found.
There will also the following fault message:
FAULT: Cut-off SCI n <-> SCI n
n = A, B, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 depending on if no one, one or several
isolators are used. A & B are the built-in control unit isolators in the
A- and B-direction respectively.
In case of a break (cut-off) in more than one segment there will also
be the following message:
FAULT: Several faults on COM loop
In case of "Several faults on COM loop": Correct the cut-off fault
shown in the display and the next cut-off fault will be shown, and so
on.
Each 10th minute a new attempt is made to communicate in the A-
direction only.
When all faults are corrected (no breaks / cut-offs) the communication
automatically returns to communicate in the A-direction only.5
5 NOTE! The fault has to be acknowledged and it can last up to 10 minutes
before the communication returns to communicate in the A-direction only.

Short-circuit on the COM loop
Short-circuit between the L (SA) and C (SB) wires6 will generate a
fault with the following fault message:
FAULT: Short-circuit SCI n <-> SCI n
n = A, B, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 depending on if no one or several
isolators are used. A & B are the built-in control unit isolators in the
A- and B-direction respectively.
If no isolator is used the information will be: A<->B.
If one isolator (no. 0) is used: A<->0 or 0<->B
If two isolators (no. 0 and no. 1) are used: A<->0, 0<->1 or
1<->B
...and so on.
The short-circuit is in the specified segment, e.g. A<->0.
In case of short-circuit in more than one segment on the COM loop,
the fault messages will be similar to the message shown for several
breaks (cut-offs), FAULT: Several... (see above).
Each 10th minute a new attempt is made to communicate in the A-
direction only.
When the fault is corrected (no short-circuit) the communication
automatically returns to communicate in the A-direction only. 5
4.2
Programmable voltage outputs (S0-S1)
The outputs S0-S1 are normally supervised (monitored).7 One to five
33K resistors can be connected. Connections to "J1:5-8" according to

The terminal block terminals support a wire size up to 1.13 mm2 (1.2
mm).
5.2.1
Type of zone line input
Not used shall be selected for a not used input.
One of the following types can be selected.
5.2.1.1
Zone line input (EOL capacitor)
This type shall normally be used. It has the lowest zone line current
consumption since the end-of-line device is a capacitor, 470 nF (±10
%). Max. allowed cable resistance is 50 ohm. Max. allowed cable
capacitance is 50 nF. Max. allowed zone line current consumption is
1.5 mA.
5.2.1.2
EX zone line input (EOL resistor)
This type shall be used when units for Hazardous (Ex) areas shall be
connected, i.e. via the Galvanic isolator MTL5061 (2820). The end-
of-line device has to be a resistor, 10K (±5 %) with a body surface
area > 230 mm2 (supplied with the Galvanic isolator). Max. allowed
cable resistance is 40 ohm. Max. allowed cable capacitance is 70 nF.
Max. allowed zone line current consumption is 1.0 mA.
5.2.2
Input states
Each input will be in one of six different states.
5.2.2.1
Normal state
This is the normal zone line input state, i.e. no alarm, no fault, etc. and
the nominal voltage is 24 V DC22. From this state any other state can
be reached / activated.
5.2.2.2
High current state
Max. current consumption limit23 for the zone line input is exceeded,
which is indicating that e.g. too many alarm points are connected.
This generates a fault condition in EBL128. From this state any other
state can be reached / activated except the open circuit state.
5.2.2.3
Alarm state
An alarm point on the zone line is in alarm state and the alarm limit23
for the zone line is exceeded, which activates fire alarm in EBL128.
In this state short-circuit, open circuit, high current and low voltage
states cannot be reached / activated. After alarm reset the zone line
input will return to the normal state.
22 Allowed voltage 15-28 V DC.
23 This limit is depending on the selected input mode.
Panasonic Electric Works Nordic AB
MEW01090
Rev: 3
EBL128 Planning Instructions V1.1.x
25
5.2.2.4
Short-circuit state
Short-circuit current limit23 is exceeded, indicating short-circuit on the
zone line, which generates a fault condition in EBL128.
5.2.2.5
Open circuit state
Open circuit current limit23 is passed, indicating no or too low zone
line current consumption, i.e. the end-of-line device is not detected,
which generates a fault condition in EBL128. From this state any
other state can be reached / activated.
5.2.2.6
Disconnected state
Via menu H5/A2 (Disconnect / Re-connect zone line) the zone line
input can be disconnected24, i.e. there is no voltage on the zone line.
From this state no other state can be reached / activated.
5.2.2.7
Low voltage state
Zone line low voltage limit (15 V DC) is passed without the high
current state is activated, indicating some H/W fault. This generates a
fault condition in EBL128. From this state any other state can be

4300 Analog multi detector. A smoke detector and a heat detector
within one housing. Scattered light (i.e. reflection of infrared
light) is used to detect smoke and the heat sensing element is a
thermistor.
The detector has unleaded soldering.
To be plugged in an ASB base 3312. Built-in LEDs are lit to
indicate that the detector35 has generated fire alarm. Prepared
for mechanical lock (screw attached).
Via Win128 it is programmable how the detectors shall operate:
a)
Two presentation numbers (addresses): The detector
unit works as two separate detectors. The smoke detector is
programmed for one zone-address and the heat detector for
another zone-address36. (Can be used to disable one of the
detectors during working hours and in control expressions for
programmable outputs). The detector unit has one technical
address used for programming and fault presentation.
b)
One presentation number (address): The detector unit
works as one detector and is programmed for one zone-address.
The detector unit (actually the heat detector) can detect a
methylated spirits fire (EN54-9, test fire TF6; liquid fire), which
normally is impossible for a photo electric smoke detector to
detect. The detector unit has one technical address used for
programming and fault presentation.
It is, via Win128, programmable if the detectors in alt. b) shall
work with "OR-functionality" or with a "Decision algorithm":
b1)
OR-functionality: Either the heat detector or the
smoke detector will activate fire alarm. This alternative is
recommended in most cases. The detector unit has one
technical address used for programming and fault
presentation.
35 I.e. the heat detector and/or the smoke detektor.
36 The zone number has to be the same for both detectors. NOTE! When
counting alarm points these "two detectors" are regarded as two alarm points.

Decision algorithm:
Fire alarm will be activated if:
temperature (°C) + adjusted smoke value 37 > 58.
Pre-warning will be activated if:
58 > temperature (°C) + adjusted smoke value37 > 50.
The "Decision algorithm" 38, see figure can be used to
reduce so called false alarms (nuisance alarms), because at
a normal room temperature, more smoke is required to
activate fire alarm than when the room temperature is high
(or is rising). By a real fire, the room temperature will rise
rather fast and less and less smoke is required to activate
fire alarm. Very little smoke require a "high" temperature
to activate fire alarm and very much smoke will activate
fire alarm also at a "low" temperature.

Control expression
Each programmable output has to be given a control expression (with
one or more trigger conditions), made by so called Boolean algebra.
Trigger conditions (displayed a list by clicking the right mouse
button), logical "Operators" (AND, OR, NOT) and parentheses are
used to build up a "control expression" containing up to 40 trigger
conditions. See also chapter "Control expression examples" page 72
and the Win128 help.
10.5.1
Trigger conditions
Some trigger conditions require additional information, see
parentheses (+nnnnn) after the trigger condition respectively.
Consecutive trigger conditions includes a "Quantity" that shows the
number of alarm points within the sequence that have to be activated
to fulfil the trigger condition. (Quantity = 1-10. "1" is normal.)

Explanation:
Pre-warning activated in zone no. 10 will
activate the output S0.
Example 2
Output:
Relay output R0
Control expression:
General Control disabled AND NOT Door
Open
Explanation:
Controls disabled via menu H2/B7 will
activate the output R0 when the door in
EBL128 is not open (i.e. when it is closed).
Example 3
Output:
Voltage output VO0
Control expression:
Fire Alarm Zone (23) AND Fire Alarm Zone
(24) AND NOT General Fault
Explanation:
Fire alarm activated in zone 23 and zone 24
will activate the output VO0 only if there are
no faults in the system at the same time.
Example 4
Output:
Voltage output S1
Control expression:
Consecutive Fire Alarm (10,10,10,19,1) OR
Consecutive Fire Alarm (10,21,10,40,1)
Explanation:
Fire alarm activated by one of the alarm
points in zone 10 addresses 10-19 or by one
of the alarm points in zone 10 addresses
21-40 will activate the output S1 (i.e. the
alarm point in zone 10 address 20 will not
activate the output S1).

Interlocking function
The interlocking function is used to verify that an output really is
activated, i.e. by "combining" an output with an input (feed-back from
the equipment controlled by the corresponding interlocking output).
11.1
Interlocking programming
Win128 is used for the programming. Up to 32 Interlocking
Combinations can be used.
NOTE! Each interlocking input and each interlocking output can
only be used in one interlocking combination.
11.1.1
Interlocking output
The "Voltage Output" / "Relay Output" dialog boxes are to be used.
Type: "Interlocking" is to be selected.
Output signal period: Steady (continuous) or Steady, delayed
activation is to be selected.
Control Expression is to be programmed for the output, i.e. for the
equipment to be controlled.
Activated output will be indicated in menu H9/C1.
Name: It is recommended to add information, e.g. the interlocking
combination's presentation number (Area-Point).
11.1.2
Interlocking input
The "Input" dialog box is to be used.
Triggered by: "Interlocking Input" is to be selected.
Activated input will be indicated in menu H9/C1.
Name: It is recommended to add information, e.g. the interlocking
combination's presentation number (Area-Point).
11.1.3
Interlocking combination
One interlocking output and one interlocking input are programmed in
one interlocking combination to get the interlocking functions.
NOTE!
The interlocking outputs and inputs have to be programmed before the
programming of an interlocking combination is possible to do.80
An interlocking combination can have only an output or only an input
programmed, e.g. when a text shall indicate an activated output or
input.
80 In the "Interlocking Combination" dialog box are listed all the outputs and
inputs previously programmed for interlocking, see Figure 15.

the alarm texts via Win128", page 101.
Buzzer checked = activated interlocking input will turn on the
EBL128 buzzer (0.8 / 0.8 sec.)82. The buzzer can be silenced. It will
be automatically turned on again, if a new interlocking input is
activated.
81 Output / Input parent will then show in which unit the output / input
respectively is situated.

Analog smoke detectors
13.1.1
Sensor value
The basic working principle and some expressions are described
below. Regarding the analog smoke detectors 430x in NORMAL
mode, see chapter "Alarm algorithms for smoke detectors / Detection
levels / Offsets", page 82.
An analog smoke detector is like a "sensor". It detects its environment
at all times. The detected analog values are, in the detector, converted
to digital "sensor values", which are for each individual detector,
continuously (each 3.4th sec.) picked up and evaluated by EBL128. In
Figure 16 the (digital) sensor values are represented by the graph
"Working level".
13.1.2
Week average sensor value
Each hour, one sensor value is stored (in EBL128) and each week are
these stored sensor values used to calculate a "week average sensor
value".87 This is done for each analog smoke detector individually.
In Figure 16 the (digital) week average sensor values are represented
by the graph "Week average".
Each analog smoke detector has a default sensor value = 1 (i.e. the
"Working level" at Time = 0). A "fire alarm offset" (value) is added
to get each detector's "Fire alarm level", i.e. the fire alarm level will
be adjusted in relation to each new week average sensor value in order
to keep the detector's fire alarm sensitivity constant. The fire alarm
level is in Figure 16 represented by the graph "Fire alarm level"
(being parallel with the graph "Week average").
Service signal will be given when the week average sensor value for a
detector has reached a fixed level, see "Service level" in Figure 16.
87 The very first week average sensor value will be calculated within 2
minutes after any restart, i.e. also after SSD download. During these "2 min."
all analog smoke detector fire alarms are suppressed.

"Sensor Information" is available via menu H4/U3. Via Win128 and a
PC connected to EBL128 you can get "Sensor Information" for all
analog detectors on the COM loop or an individual detector. For an
individual detector you can also get continuous information. Also via
the Web-server II 1598 you can get "Sensor Information" for all
analog detectors on the COM loop.
The smoke detector sensor values are presented as obscuration in %
per meter (%/m) and heat detector sensor values as °C.
The following is valid for the analog smoke detector types 430x in NORMAL
mode.
In order to secure real alarms and reduce nuisance alarms, advanced
algorithms are used and a decision value is calculated, see below.
13.1.3
Decision value
The decision value is used to decide if it is normal state, pre-warning,
fire alarm or heavy smoke alarm. It is also used in the smouldering
smoke algorithm (see page 86). The decision value is calculated, see
chapter "Filtering algorithm, page 84.
13.1.4
Alarm algorithms for smoke detectors / Detection
levels / Offsets
Each detector uses an alarm algorithm and each detector has three
different detection levels for:
1. fire alarm88
88 The fire alarm level for each analog detector (sensor) = the current week
average sensor value + a fixed fire alarm offset (value), i.e. when the current
Panasonic Electric Works Nordic AB

82
2. pre-warning will be activated at a lower level (smaller offset)
than for fire alarm, i.e. pre-warning will be activated before fire
alarm will be activated.
3. heavy smoke alarm will be activated at a higher level (bigger
offset) than for fire alarm, i.e. heavy smoke alarm will be
activated after fire alarm has been activated. Heavy smoke alarm
will be saved in the event log.89
The pre-warning offset and the heavy smoke alarm level can, for all
detectors, be set in Win128, see chapter "Alarm Algorithms", page
121. See also Win128 help.
The fire alarm offset can, for all detectors, be set in Win128, see
chapter "Alarm Algorithms", page 121. See also Win128 help.
NOTE! Changing these parameters will affect the sensitivity and
detection time and should be done by authorised personnel only!!!!!
In addition, a special password is required to change the fire alarm
parameters.
"Pre-warning", "Fire Alarm" and "Heavy Smoke Alarm" can activate
programmable outputs respectively, see chapter "Control expression",
page 69. See also the EBL128 Operating Instructions.
13.1.5
Alarm algorithm / Alternative alarm algorithm
Alarm algorithm
In order to secure real alarms and reduce nuisance alarms90, six
different alarm algorithms are available. See Figure 17., page 85.
The alarm algorithms are based on:
Normal, high or low sensitivity
Normal (15 sec.) or slow (35 sec.) detection time (alarm delay)
Normal sensitivity. 3.0 % smoke obscuration per meter is required to
activate fire alarm (i.e. fire alarm offset=30). This is default in the
N-15 algorithm and should normally not be changed.
High sensitivity. 2.4 % smoke obscuration per meter is required to
activate fire alarm, i.e. less fire alarm offset than for normal
sensitivity. High sensitivity can be used when an "early" fire alarm is
wanted.
Low sensitivity. 3.6 % smoke obscuration per meter is required to
activate fire alarm, i.e. a higher fire alarm offset than for normal
sensitivity. Low sensitivity can be used to get an extra delay time in
order to reduce nuisance alarms90 but might not fulfil the EN54-7
specifications.
week average sensor value is re-calculated (and adjusted) the fire alarm level
will also be adjusted. The detector sensitivity is accordingly constant.
89 No other heavy smoke alarm information if not an ext. FBP with printer is
available. If so, the heavy smoke alarm information will also be printed out.
90 So called false / unnecessary alarms.
Panasonic Electric Works Nordic AB
MEW01090
Rev: 3
EBL128 Planning Instructions V1.1.x
83
Normal detection time (15 sec.) If it was possible to completely fill
up a detector with smoke within 1 sec. there will nevertheless be 15
seconds alarm delay. This alarm delay is a "filter" to reduce nuisance
alarms.
Slow detection time (35 sec.). If it was possible to completely fill up
a detector with smoke within 1 sec. there will nevertheless be 35
seconds alarm delay. This alarm delay is an "extra filter" to reduce
the nuisance alarms90 but might not fulfil the EN54-7 specifications.
Alternative alarm algorithm
Each analog smoke detector can have two alarm algorithms
programmed (via Win128). One alarm algorithm that is normally
used (N-15 is default) and one alternative alarm algorithm turned on
/ off by a time channel (internal or external). Normal sensitivity can
for example be used during the night-time and low sensitivity and/or
slow detection time can be used during the daytime, i.e. the alternative
alarm algorithm can be used to reduce nuisance alarms90 during
working hours. The actual (current) alarm algorithm is shown in
menu H4/U3.
The alarm algorithm parameters can, for all detectors, be set in
Win128, see chapter "Alarm Algorithms", page 121. See also Win128
help.
13.1.6
Filtering algorithm
In order to secure a fast detection of real fire alarms and to reduce
nuisance alarms to a minimum, the filtering algorithm is used in the
six different alarm algorithms.
The filtering algorithm uses the sensor value to calculate a decision
value depending on which alarm algorithm that is selected.
The decision value starts at zero. Each time a new sensor value is
picked up (sampled) from an analog smoke detector, this new sensor
value is compared with the actual decision value, which will be
adjusted, see below.
If the difference, between the new sensor value and the actual decision
value is < "X", the decision value is set equal to the new sensor value.
If the difference, between the new sensor value and the actual decision
value is > "X", the decision value is increased (or decreased) by "X".
The decision value will consequently not be increased / decreased
with a value exceeding the "X" value even if the sensor value is much
higher / lower, see Figure 18.
"X" = The Step Value, is depending on which alarm algorithm that is
used, see Figure 17.

L-35 algorithms might not fulfil the EN54-7 specifications.)
Figure 18. An example showing the alarm algorithm "N-15", i.e.
the step value X = 5. The detector polling time t ≈ 3.4 sec.
Explanations to the figure:
One analog smoke detector 430x using alarm algorithm "N-15", i.e.
normal detection time (15sec.) and normal sensitivity (3.0 %/m). This
gives X = 5. The week average sensor value has in this example been
adjusted (due to contamination) and is now "10"91, i.e. the pre-warning
level is 10+offset 22=32 and the fire alarm level is 10+offset 30=40,
which is the same as 4.0 %/m.
The sensor values and decision values are approx. equal ("10"), until
the polling when the sensor value increases to approx. "27". Since
27-10 > X=5, the decision value is increased by "5" to "15" (10+5).
91 "10" = 1.0 %/m. A new / clean detector has approx. 0.1 %/m, i.e. this
detector is probably mounted in a very "dirty" environment. A detector
mounted in a normal office would after 8-10 years have approx. 0.3 %/m.
Panasonic Electric Works Nordic AB
MEW01090
Rev: 3
EBL128 Planning Instructions V1.1.x
85
Next polling the sensor value is approx. "45". 45-15 > 5, i.e. the
decision value "15" is increased by 5 to "20", and so on.
In this example the sensor value starts to decrease before the decision
value reaches the fire alarm level. When the sensor value has
decreased to approx. "25" the decision value is set to "30", because
35-25=10 > 5, i.e. the decision value "35" is decreased by 5 to "30",
and so on.
1. The sensor value has reached the pre-warning level but nothing
will happen since the decision value has not yet reached the pre-
warning level.
2. The sensor value has reached the fire alarm level but nothing will
happen since the decision value has not yet reached the fire alarm
level.
3. The decision value has reached / passed the pre-warning level and
pre-warning is activated.
4. The sensor values have started to decrease and the decision value
is now below the pre-warning level and the pre-warning is
automatically reset.
NOTE! In case of a real fire, the sensor values would have stayed at a
"high" value (> 40) for a long time and consequently the decision
value would have increased and reached / passed the fire alarm level
approx. 15 sec. after the sensor value reached the fire alarm level.
13.1.7
Smouldering smoke algorithm
The smoke from a smouldering fire brings the sensor value to rise
very slowly. This might last for hours and sometimes days. To be
able to detect such a smouldering fire at an "early" stage, a
smouldering smoke algorithm is used.
The smouldering smoke algorithm is depending on and is always
working parallel with the selected alarm algorithm, i.e. the
smouldering smoke algorithm will affect the pre-warning and fire
alarm levels, see below.
If the decision value has been over the smouldering level (1) for 7
minutes, the pre-warning and fire alarm levels will be lowered (2):
- The pre-warning level will be lowered to a level right between the
original pre-warning level and the smouldering level.
- The fire alarm level will be lowered to a level right between the
original fire alarm level and the pre-warning level.
If the decision value has reached the pre-warning level (3), but not the
fire alarm level, after additional 90 minutes, the pre-warning and fire
alarm levels will be lowered again (4):
- The pre-warning level will be lowered to the original smouldering
level.
- The fire alarm level will be lowered to the original pre-warning
level.
Panasonic Electric Works Nordic AB
MEW01090
Rev: 3
EBL128 Planning Instructions V1.1.x
86
The smouldering smoke algorithm will be aborted and the pre-
warning and fire alarm levels restored to their original values if:
- The decision value becomes lower than the smouldering level.
- The decision value, after the 90 minutes, has not reached the pre-
warning level.
- The decision value, after the 90 minutes and additional 120
minutes, has not reached the fire alarm level.
The smouldering offset can be set in Win128, see chapter "Alarm
Algorithms", page 121.
Figure 19. An example with the smouldering smoke algorithm.
Explanations to the figure:
Analog smoke detector 430x. The week average sensor value has in
this example been adjusted and is now "10"91, i.e. the smouldering
level is 10+offset 14=24, the pre-warning level is 10+offset 22=32 and
the fire alarm level is 10+offset 30=40.
When a smouldering fire starts, the sensor values and the decision
values will increase very slowly from "10" and upwards.
1. The decision value has reached the smouldering level. A 7
minutes timer is started.
2. After the 7 minutes the decision value is still over the smouldering
level. The pre-warning level and the fire alarm level are therefore
lowered. A 90 minutes timer is started.
3. The decision value has reached the pre-warning level and pre-
warning is activated.
4. After the 90 minutes the decision value is still over the pre-
warning level but has not reached the fire alarm level. The pre-
warning level and the fire alarm level are therefore lowered again.
A 120 minutes timer is started.
5. The decision value has reached the fire alarm level and fire alarm
is activated.

6. The decision value has reached the original fire alarm level "40".
This happens approx. 90 minutes after the fire alarm has been
activated by the smouldering algorithm!!
13.1.8
Performance factor
To find out the environment conditions where an analog smoke
detector 430x is mounted, the Performance factor (Pf) can be studied
via menu H4/U3 or via Win128.
The performance factor is calculated for each detector individually.
Each momentary sensor value is compared with the week average
sensor value. The absolute difference is saved and each twenty-four
hour (at midnight) an "average value" is calculated, i.e. the
performance factor. (25412 = samples per 24 hours.)
If the detector is mounted in a very "stable" environment (like an
office) the performance factor will be low, i.e. min. 0 %/m.
If the detector is mounted in a very "unstable" environment (like in a
factory) the performance factor might be high, i.e. max. 2.55 %/m.
An "unstable" environment where the sensor values vary a lot can
cause nuisance alarms (unnecessary alarms). Perhaps should another
type of detector be used, another alarm algorithm92 or other actions be
taken, e.g. alert annunciation or two-unit-dependence (co-incidence
alarm).
The performance factor is shown in menu H4/U3 or via Win128
together with the min. and max. sensor values. These values should
be studied together. (E.g. one or two high sensor values will not result
in a high performance factor, like many high sensor values will.)
13.2
Analog heat detectors
The following is valid for the analog heat detector types 330x in NORMAL
mode.
The detectors conforms to a class (see EN54-5:2000, clause 4.2)
according to the requirements of the tests specified in EN54-5:2000,
clause 5. Each analog heat detector can have two alarm algorithms
programmed (via Win128).
One alarm algorithm that is normally used (default) and one
alternative alarm algorithm turned on / off by a time channel
(internal or external). E.g. class A1 can be used during night-time and
class B can be used during daytime. The alternative alarm algorithm
can be used to reduce nuisance alarms during working hours. The
actual algorithm is shown in menu H4/U3.
When EBL128 has picked up a sensor value above the fire alarm
level for a detector, the next two values from the same detector also
92 E.g. an alternative alarm algorithm during working hours.

have to be above the fire alarm level to activate fire alarm in EBL128.
(This results in approx. 7 seconds alarm delay).
The same is valid for pre-warning only it is a lower level than for fire
alarm.
The same is valid for heavy heat alarm only it is a higher level than
for fire alarm. Heavy heat alarm will be saved in the event log.93
The fire alarm, pre-warning and heavy heat alarm level respectively
can be set via Win128, see chapter "Alarm Algorithms", page 121.

13.2.1
Class A1 algorithm
Conforms to Class A1.
Typical / max. application temperature 25 / 50° C.
Max. / min. static response temperature 54 / 65° C.
The algorithm is as follows:
For a rate-of-rise < 4° C per minute:
Fire alarm level is 56° C.
Pre-warning level is 46° C.
Heavy heat alarm level is 90° C.
For a rate-of-rise > 4° C per minute:
Fire alarm level is 46° C.
Pre-warning level is 36° C.
Heavy heat alarm level is 90° C.
The biggest difference between the class A1 and A2 algorithms is that
the class A1 algorithm will detect a fast temperature rise (rate-of-rise
> 4° C per minute) faster than the class A2 algorithm.
13.2.2
Class A2 S algorithm
Conforms to Class A2 S.
Typical / max. application temperature 25 / 50° C.
Max. / min. static response temperature 54 / 70° C.
The algorithm is as follows:
Fire alarm level is 60° C.
Pre-warning level is 50° C.
Heavy heat alarm level is 90° C.
13.2.3
Class B S algorithm
Conforms to Class B S.
Typical / max. application temperature 40 / 50° C.
Max. / min. static response temperature 69 / 85° C.
93 No other heavy heat alarm information if not an ext. FBP with printer is
available. If so, the heavy heat alarm information will also be printed out.

The algorithm is as follows:
Fire alarm level is 74° C.
Pre-warning level is 64° C.
Heavy heat alarm level is 90° C.
The class B S algorithm shall be used when the typical application
temperature is "high" compared with the class A1 and A2 algorithms.
13.3
Self verification
The analog detectors in NORMAL mode have a built-in self
verification function. The detector's H/W is always supervised by the
detector's S/W and CPU. Every minute, each detector will receive a
question from EBL128. If the self verification function has detected
any fault it will be reported back to EBL128. A fault will be activated
in EBL128 and the following fault message will be shown:
FAULT: Detector xx-xx →
FAULT: Detector techn. address nnn ←
13.4
Minimum / Maximum sensor values
To find out how the environment is, where an analog detector in
NORMAL mode is mounted, the minimum and maximum sensor
values can be studied. The sensor values are continuously picked up
and evaluated by EBL128 for each detector individually. Every value
is checked if it is a new minimum or maximum value for that detector
and if so, the value will be stored. At midnight every day a memory
will be updated and the new minimum and maximum sensor values94
can be read in menu H4/U3 or via Win128.
For analog smoke detectors the minimum and maximum sensor values
are shown as XX.X % (obscuration) per meter.
For analog heat detectors the values are shown as XX°C.
13.5
Two-unit dependence (co-incidence alarm)
In some premises two-unit-dependent fire alarm (co-incidence alarm)
can be used to avoid unwanted false alarms (nuisance alarms).
Each analog or addressable detector (alarm point) and addressable
multi purpose I/O unit (3361) monitored input (Z)95 can be
programmed for two-unit-dependent fire alarm activation. (Heat
detectors should not and manual call points must not be 2-unit
dependent).
94 I.e. the min. / max. sensor values are from the previous day.
95 In this case only one alarm point is recommended on the zone line.

Function: Two or more two-unit-dependent alarm points in the same
zone have to be in "fire alarm state" (i.e. over the fire alarm level)96 at
the same time to activate fire alarm in EBL128. If only one such
alarm point is in "fire alarm state" it is indicated in EBL128 as a co-
incidence alarm:
The buzzer sounds 0.8 sec. each 5th sec. (like pre-warning).
In the display is the following text shown:
Co-incidence alarm detector ZZ/AA
Programmable outputs can be activated by the trigger condition "Two
Address Dependent Fire Alarm" but no other outputs will be activated.
A co-incidence alarm can be manually reset ("Reset" button on the
front) and will be automatically reset 5 min. after it is no longer in
"fire alarm state" (i.e. below the fire alarm level).
13.6
Two-zone dependence (co-incidence alarm)
This function is valid only for the 4580 board zone line inputs. Two
specified zones must be in fire alarm state at the same time to activate
fire alarm in EBL128.
In some premises two-zone-dependent fire alarm (co-incidence alarm)
can be used to avoid unwanted false alarms (nuisance alarms).
NOTE! It is not recommended to use heat detectors and/or manual
call points in a zone with this function.
If only one two-zone-dependent zone is in "fire alarm state" it is
indicated in EBL128 as a co-incidence alarm:
The buzzer sounds 0.8 sec. each 5th sec. (like pre-warning).
In the display is the following text shown:
Co-incidence alarm zone ZZ
Programmable outputs can be activated by the trigger condition "Two
Zone Dependent Fire Alarm" but no other outputs will be activated.
A co-incidence alarm can be manually reset ("Reset" button on the
front) and will be automatically reset 5 min. after it is no longer in
"fire alarm state".
13.7
Delayed alarm
In some premises delayed fire alarm activation can be used to avoid
unwanted false alarms (nuisance alarms). Note, this function is a
violation to the EN54-2 standard.
This function is valid only for the 4580 board zone line inputs.
96 A not two-unit dependent alarm point would in this state have activated a
fire alarm in EBL128.

NOTE! It is not recommended to use heat detectors and/or manual

The delay time can via Win128 be set to 30 or 60 seconds. (The
selected time is valid for all zones.)
The function "Delayed" is selected in the dialog box for the zone line
input respectively.
Function: A zone in "fire alarm state"97 will be recorded in EBL128
but a fire alarm will not be activated. When the delay time has run out
the zone will be automatically reset and if the zone is still in "fire
alarm state", a fire alarm will be activated in EBL128, else nothing
will happen until the next time the zone is in "fire alarm state" and a
new time delay will start.

Alarm Verification Facility
In some premises AVF can be used to avoid unwanted false alarms
(nuisance alarms). Note, this function is a violation to the EN54-2
standard.
This function is valid for any zone line input but only in the
Australian and New Zealand convention respectively.
In these conventions the function "Delayed alarm" (see above) is not
valid.
The function "Delayed" is selected in the dialog box for the zone line
input respectively.
Function: A zone in "fire alarm state"98 will be recorded in EBL128
but a fire alarm will not be activated. After 15 seconds the zone will
be automatically reset and if the zone comes in "fire alarm state" again
within 110 seconds, a fire alarm will be activated in EBL128, else
nothing will happen until the next time the zone is in "fire alarm state"
and so on.
13.9
Alert Annunciation
In some installations the Alert Annunciation function can be used to
avoid unwanted false alarms (nuisance alarms) to the fire brigade.
Trained personnel on site have to locate the "alarming" detector and
take the correct actions depending on if there is a fire or not.
Normally analog or addressable smoke detectors and zones with
smoke detectors only, should come in question for the AA function.
Heat detectors and manual call points should normally not come in
question for the AA function. A manual call point can only activate
the AA function if there are no other fire alarms activated, i.e. the
second fire alarm will turn OFF the AA function and the "Fire brigade
97 A not delayed zone would in this state activate a fire alarm in EBL128.
98 A zone with the AVF not selected would in this state activate a fire alarm
in EBL128.

tx" output will be activated.
The AA function is normally ON (enabled) during daytime only (i.e.
working hours). The time channels 2-4 or the external time channels
5-12 are used to turn ON / OFF (enable / disable) the AA function.99
Figure 20. Alert Annunciation function flow chart.
AA Function: Indications, actions, etc. as for a normal fire alarm
except that the output for routing equipment (Fire brigade tx) 100
will not be activated directly.
The AA alarm has to be acknowledged within an acknowledge time
and the AA alarm has to be reset within an investigation time,
otherwise the output for routing equipment (Fire brigade tx) will be
activated.
During the acknowledge & investigation times the output for routing
equipment (Fire brigade tx) will be activated if:
fire alarm is activated by another detector not programmed for
alert annunciation
fire alarm is activated in another zone
fire alarm is activated by a manual call point
AA alarm is activated by a second detector within the same zone
programmed for alert annunciation and "Multiple alarms allowed
within same zone" is not selected101 via Win128.
Acknowledge and Reset is done on the Alert annunciation unit 1735 /
1736 (or Alert annunciation controller 1740). Programmable output
("Alert Announcement Activated" for indication and programmable
inputs
("Alert
Announcement
Acknowledge"
and
"Alert
Announcement Reset") can also be used.
99 The alert annunciation function ON (enabled) is indicated by the LED
"Fire brigade tx delay". Normally is only one time channel used for this
function but two or more channels can be used. The AA function can, as an
alternative, be continuously "on". NOTE! The AA function can be de-
activated (disabled) via menu H2/B10 and will stay so until re-activated (re-
enabled) again via menu H2/B10.
100 NOTE! As default it is the relay output "R0" in EBL128. If another
output shall be used it has to be programmed as type Routing Equipment
(Fire brigade tx) and the trigger condition has to be "Fire brigade tx".
101 Default the Check box is un-marked = Multiple alarms are not allowed
within same zone.

The Acknowledge time can be set to 5-60 seconds.
The Investigation time can be set to 1-9 minutes.
NOTE! According to EN54-2, the total delay of fire alarm routing
equipment must not exceed 10 minutes (i.e. Acknowledge time +
Investigation time < 10 min.).
13.10
Alarm Acknowledgement Facility (AAF)
This function is similar to the "Alert Annunciation Function"
(described above) and used on the Australian market only.
One AAF zone can be one to five analog smoke detectors (4300 /
4301), one AAF buzzer (e.g. Sounder base 3378) and one AAF
Control (AAFC)102. All connected on the COM loop.

Function (see also the flow chart in the following figure):
- One of the detectors in an AAF zone reaches its fire alarm level.
The AA Process starts and the AAF buzzer sounds.
- An Acknowledgement Period starts
(AP=10-60 sec. -- programmable).
- If it is a false alarm, acknowledge the alarm on the AAFC before
the AP is ended.
- After acknowledgement an Investigation Period starts and the AAF
buzzer is silent
(IP=0-3 min. -- programmable).
If all the detectors in the AAF zone becomes normal again (i.e. goes
below the fire alarm level respectively) during the IP, the AAP ends.
If the AP or the IP runs out during the AAP and any detector in the
AAF zone still is over its fire alarm level, normal fire alarm(s) will be
activated.

Annunciation function. Only Analog photo electric smoke detector
4301 and Analog multi detector 4300 can be used for AAF. If the
Analog multi detector 4300 is used, it must be programmed as type
"Two addresses", so that only the "smoke part" of the detector can be
used for AAF.
Max. 50 AAF zones can be used.
The AAF buzzer (e.g. Sounder base 3378) has to be programmed with
the output trigger condition "AAF zone alarm".
13.11
Quiet alarm
Quiet alarm is e.g. used in conjunction with the I/O Matrix board
4582103, an application board for fan control and an I/O unit 3361 for
fan control.
NOTE! These units are available on the Australian market only.
Smoke detectors, programmed for quiet alarm, can be used e.g. for
controlling fans (stop / start depending on the type of fan).
Indications and actions:
In the c.i.e. display: Quiet alarm detector ZZ/AA and a
user definable text message (alarm text) if programmed.
LED:s "Fire" in the c.i.e. are blinking (0.4 / 0.4 sec.).
Buzzer in the c.i.e. sounding (0.8 / 5 sec.).
Programmable outputs for quiet alarm, e.g. 3361 outputs
controlling supply air fans and standard fans i.e. any output
with a control expression containing trigger conditions "Quiet
Alarm Zone" or "Quiet Alarm Zone Address".
Quiet alarms are non-latching, i.e. they will be automatically reset
when the alarm point / zone is no longer above alarm level.
NOTE! Quiet alarm can also be programmed for a 3361 unit "zone
line input". In such a case only non-latching detectors can be used.
13.12
Fire alarm type A and Fire alarm type B
Normally the c.i.e. relay output "R0" is used as an output for Routing
equipment (Fire brigade tx).
The output shall be programmed (via Win128) as type "Routing
equipment" and have the trigger condition "Fire brigade tx". The
output will then be activated for fire alarm from any alarm point or
zone line input.
If the fire alarm routing equipment has provision for transmission of
several fire alarm signals and the alarm receiver has provision for
reception of several fire alarm signals, a fire alarm type B will indicate
that only one detector is activated, which could be a nuisance alarm.

If a fire alarm type A is received, the probability of a real fire is higher
than for a fire alarm type B. The alarm receiver can take different
actions depending on if it is a fire alarm type A or B.
13.12.1
Fire alarm type B
The output will be activated for fire alarm from one analog
addressable smoke, heat or multi104 detector only.
The output shall be programmed (via Win128) as type "Routing
equipment" and have the trigger condition "One detector alarm".
13.12.2
Fire alarm type A
The output will be activated for fire alarm from:
Two or more analog addressable smoke, heat or multi
detectors.
Any manual call point
Any zone line input
Any programmable input with the trigger condition "General
Fire"
The output shall be programmed (via Win128) as type "Routing
equipment" and have the trigger condition "Multiple detector
alarm".
13.13
Disable zones, alarm points, outputs, etc.
Temporary disablements are made via the menu H2 sub menus B1-B3
& B7-B9. For more information see the EBL128 Operating
Instructions, chapter "Disable or re-enable (H2)".
Regular disablements are made via time channels, see chapter "Time
Channels", page 119.
Disabled alarm points and outputs are indicated by LED
"Disablements" and listed in menu H4/U1.
Fire alarm, pre-warning and fault signal can not be activated by a
disabled alarm point / zone.
13.13.1
Disable zone
A whole zone (all addressable alarm points within one zone, including
the manual call points) can be disabled via menu H2/B1. This menu is
also used to disable a conventional zone, i.e. a 3361 unit's zone line
input (Z) and expansion board 4580 zone line inputs.
Re-enable via menu H2/B4 or automatic re-enabling at a specified
time.
104 NOTE! A multi detector can have one presentation number (Zone-
Address) or two presentation numbers depending on how it is programmed
via Win128. One presentation number = one detector and two presentation
numbers = two detectors regarding fire alarm types A and B.

Test mode
Up to four zones can be set in Test mode at the same time.105 Alarm
points / zones can be tested during the Monthly test (via menu H1) or
separately (via menu H7). For more information see the EBL128
Operating Instructions. The LED "Test mode" indicates one or more
zones in Test mode. Zones in Test mode are also simultaneously
shown in the EBL128 display.106 In order to shorten the testing time,
any time delay for the detectors / zones in test mode will be
"disabled", i.e. fire alarm will be activated faster than normally.
13.15
Test alarm devices
The programmable outputs type "Alarm device" can be collectively
activated via menu H8/S3, which make it possible to test the alarm
devices. (The test can not be started if a fire alarm already is
activated.) When the test starts the alarm devices will be turned "ON"
for 5 seconds (±1s), "off" for 25 seconds (±1s), "on" for 5 seconds and
so on.107
NOTE! Also disabled (and silenced) alarm devices will be tested.
The test will continue for one hour if it is not stopped via menu H8/S3
or if a fire alarm is activated in the system.
13.16
Test of routing equipment
Via menu H1 it is possible to test the fault and fire alarm outputs for
routing equipment (Fault tx & Fire brigade tx).
In menu H1, press "Accept" to start the test. The fault output will be
activated108, indicated by LED "Fault tx activated". After 30 seconds
will also the fire output be activated, indicated by LED "Fire brigade
tx". After additional 30 seconds will the test be ended and the outputs
and LEDs will go back to "normal" status.
105 In DBI (Danish) convention, one zone only.
106 Disablements, faults and fire alarms have higher priority, i.e. the
presentation of zones in Test mode will be suppressed during such a
condition.
107 The output activation will be continuously (steady). For the alarm
devices 3377 and 3378, the tone with the highest priority level (and type
"alarm device") will be automatically selected.
108 NOTE! The Fault tx output is activated in "normal" state, i.e. it will in
this test be de-activated.
