4.7 Definition of C&E Linkage Formula
4.7.1 Use of C&E Formula
The control panel can define under what conditions extinguishing equipment or alarm
devices have to be started. So please define C&E formula after defining devices and
before operation of the control panel.
Note: Please define C&E formula after finishing the definition of devices.
4.7.2 Arrangement of C&E
Define the devices and arrange C&E in the system before defining C&E formula.
① Structure and meaning of C&E formula
To arrange C&E formulas, you need to know its structure and meaning. A control panel
can have many C&E formulas. The total number of bytes of the formulas should not
exceed 8K, and total number of formula in a fire alarm control panel should not be over
255. Each C&E formula should not be over 128 bytes (17 devices).
The structure of a C&E is shown in Fig. 4.32.

Page 39

GST5000 Intelligent Fire Alarm Control Panel

The Intelligent Solution

Fig. 4.32
“Cons” stands for conditions of C&E, which comprises of many conditions (Con_No.1;
Con_No.2; Con_No.3; Con_No.4). Relationship among these conditions is “or”. Each
condition (such as Con_No.1) is made up of lots of devices (Detector 1 and Detector 2).
The condition is valid when all the devices alarm.
“Result” is the result of C&E formula.
The meaning of C&E in Fig. 4.31: Only when at least two of detector1, detector 2,
detector 3 alarm fire, sounder 4 will be activated and give alarm sounds.
② Arranging C&E in the system
Suppose device list in the GST5000Env4.0 control panel system is as in Table 4.4.
