This report describes some basic elements of the various Interlock and Control Systems associated with the Front Ends and Beamlines. Some systems serve only the Front Ends; other serve both the Front Ends and the Beamlines, while the Experimental Controls are for the Beamlines only. Specific system requirements and design specifications are not in the scope of this report. They will be presented in the descriptions of the Experimental Floor Personnel Safety System (XF-PSS or, more often, PSS) and Equipment Protection System (XF-EPS or EPS), which will expand on the overview presented here. The main focus here is on the PSS and EPS in the context of their interactions and interface to the Storage Ring Access Control Interlock System (ACIS), and Ring Controls. The other systems are only mentioned to make the cross section complete. This paper is the first in series of three reports that jointly provide a full description of sector interlocks. The second report describes the PSS, and the third -- the EPS.
