Monitor Gas Detector
Quick Start Guide
Warnings and cautions
WARNING
!
• Operate and service the SPM Flex gas detector only as specified in this
quick start guide and the accompanying manual. Failure to do so may
impair the protection provided by the detector and may also void the
warranty.
• The battery is not field-replaceable. Return the unit to Honeywell
Analytics if a battery replacement is necessary.
• Risk of fire and burns. Do not open, crush, heat above 140ºF (60ºC), or
incinerate. Follow manufacturer's instructions.
• Protection afforded by the SPM Flex gas detector may be impaired if it
is not used according to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Do not operate two-way radios near the detector.
• Calibration, set-up, and test modes are intended for use by trained
personnel or service engineers only. Access to these modes can be
passcode protected.
• Follow local and site procedures when working with the SPM Flex
gas detector. If needed, ensure that the associated control panel is
inhibited in order to prevent false alarms. The following procedures
must be followed carefully and performed only by suitably trained
personnel.
• Use only accessories and parts meeting or exceeding Honeywell
Analytics' specifications.
CAUTION
!
• The SPM Flex detector must be installed only by qualified professional
personnel in accordance with local codes.
• The safety of any system incorporating the SPM Flex gas detector is
the responsibility of the assembler of the system.
• Position a permanently-installed SPM Flex gas detector so that it does
not interfere with access to the dedicated circuit breaker.
• Use the supplied power adaptor/connector only. (The adaptor is rated
for indoor use only.)
• Do not leave the optics gate open. Doing so may allow pressurized
gases to escape through the tubing into the unit and then into the local
environment.
Unpacking the box
The contents of the box:
• the SPM Flex gas detector
• the handle assembly (for portable models only)
• power adaptor and cable
• shoulder strap (for portable models only)
• mounting bracket (for fixed units only)
• a CD containing the Technical Manual
• this Quick Start Guide
Save the packaging to re-use for service requests.
External connections
The detector is supplied with weather-sealed connectors for power,
Ethernet, and communications (for relays or 4-20 mA). See the SPM Flex
manual if the detector is being mounted in a fixed location.
Portable detectors must be charged at least four hours. (They can be used
while charging.) Honeywell Analytics recommends leaving the detector
connected to the power source/charger when not in use to keep the battery
fully charged.

1. Verify that the rocker switch under the cover is in the on position.
(Typically, it is switched off only for transport or service.) Do not power
up the detector with a flash drive attached.
2. Press and hold the Power/Cancel button until the green LED begins
blinking. The detector will then complete the start-up sequence.
3. To turn the detector off, press and hold the Power/Cancel button for 5
seconds or select "Power Off" from the menu.
Navigation
All SPM Flex menus are navigated by the four buttons shown in Figure 2.
Pressing either of the arrows or the Accept/Select button will access the
menu from the main display screen. The arrows are used to scroll up and
down through lists of options. The Accept/Select button is used to initiate a
highlighted option. During navigation, the Power/Cancel button will cancel a
command or, when pressed for more than 3 seconds, it will exit to the main
display.

In the status bar, the color of the status bar changes according to the
conditions (blue = out of Monitor mode, green = status OK, yellow = fault,
red = alarm).
See Figure 10 (over) for the detector's menu map.
The interface consists of a color LCD, a 4-button keypad, and four color
status LEDs. The menu options are navigated using these buttons:
