Introduction
1.1 Overview
FT1020G3 Operation Manual is a document intended to be used by the end user and the
fire brigade personnel as well as service / commissioning engineers.
The block wiring diagrams of the standard FT1020G3 in 19” rack configurations and
general arrangements are shown in Chapter 34 page 173.
Due to continual development and improvement, different S/W versions are to be found.
This document is valid for software (firmware) version 2.10.x . On the date of printing this
manual x = 4.
The system software version is the firmware downloaded in to the Control Unit via PC
Windows based software e.g. EBL512G3 V2.10.x. The latest system software is factory
downloaded in FT1020G3 before delivery is EBL512G3 V2.10.x. However, new software
may be upgraded to a newer revision on site.
The software version is dependent on the country where the control panel to be installed,
that is due to the variations in the standard in each country. Two separate software
versions are available, Australian (AU) and New Zealand (NZ).
The PC software is Windows based software
EBLWin which has to be installed in your PC,
and must have the first two digits of the version number identical to the system software
(firmware) version number i.e. version 2.10.x. The EBLWin is used to download the
firmware and the Site Specific Data (SSD) into the FDCIE.
Only the first two digits
must be identical in the software and the EBLWin version number
i.e. 2.10.x (x = minor modifications).

Device or function Description
Alarm points
Units, which can generate a fire alarm in FT1020G3, i.e. analogue
detectors (sensors), manual call points, conventional detectors,
etc.
Smoke detector Analogue or conventional photoelectric smoke detector
Sensor
Sensor = Analogue detector
Analogue detector
Contains an A/D-converter. The FT1020G3 picks up the digital
values ("sensor values") for each detector individually. All
evaluations and "decisions" are then taken by alarm algorithms in
the FDCIE. The latest detector generation (440x) can be used in
"Advanced mode", i.e. the alarm algorithms are in the detector
instead. Analogue detectors are addressable, an address setting
tool 4414E is used to write the address and select the required
mode of the detectors on a COM loop.
An analogue detector has to be plugged in an Analogue Sensor
Base (ASB).
Analogue Sensor Base (ASB)
An analogue detector is plugged in an ASB, which is connected to
a COM loop (see below).
