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 alarm algorithms. As from version 2.0.x the latest detector generation (440x) can be used. In the "Advanced mode" the alarm algorithms are stored in the detector instead of the control unit.

EBL128 Planning Instructions V2.0.x Overview The EBL128 c.i.e. EBL128 (type no. 4550) is a microprocessor controlled intelligent fire alarm Control and Indicating Equipment (c.i.e.) intended for analog addressable smoke and heat detectors. Also conventional detectors and manual call points can be used. Programmable inputs, control outputs and I/O units are available.
The EBLWin S/W shall have the same version number as the EBL128 S/W version number, e.g. 2.0.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 EBLWin version before the download. If a backup is required, use the same EBLWin version as the EBL128 version.
Figure 1. The EBL128 Control & Indicating Equipment (4550). Depending on country, convention, configuration, etc. the look, language and functions might vary. Figure 1 shows an EBL128 with English front. The metal housing consists of a wall mounted chassis on which a removable skin, incl. the door, is attached. This makes the installation and service very easy.
