Installation Installation WARNINGS Touchpoint 1 is designed for installation and use in indoor safe area non-explosive atmospheres. Installation must be in accordance with the recognized standards of the appropriate authority in the country concerned. Before carrying out any work ensure local regulations and site procedures are followed.

(3.9”) Mounting Touchpoint 1 is supplied with a mounting bracket that fits onto a suitable wall. The controller is then hooked onto the bracket. The previous diagrams show dimensions for Touchpoint 1 and the bracket. Fit the bracket to a flat, firm surface, e.g. wall, suitable for the controller’s size and weight.
Installation Controller Components This procedure describes how to access the components inside the controller. Loosen the single captive screw securing the Terminal Module access panel. The panel is located at the bottom of the enclosure. Push down on the finger grips at the top of the access panel. Slide the panel down to release it.
Caution Always ensure the cover is replaced/refitted after work is complete. Power Touchpoint 1 has an auto sensing power supply capable of operating between 85 and 265 Vac, 50/60 Hz mains supply, and/or 19 to 32 Vdc. Honeywell Analytics recommend that the power to the controller is sourced from a locally fused circuit.
Installation To calculate the maximum cable run length from the controller to the detector see page 23. Neutral Live AC Supply Earth Star Ground/Earth Point Gas Detector Signal Wiring Caution An earth point is provided inside the controller. Ensure that all detector screens/armor are grounded at a single earth star point at the controller or detector —...

Installation Always use suitable wiring techniques and crimps when terminating cable cores, especially if running two cores to a single terminal. Signal and DC power connections are made via a 16-wire terminal block. Mains power is connected via a separate 3-wire terminal block. The diagram shows the 16-wire terminal block layout with terminal identifiers.

Once powered, Touchpoint 1 displays gas concentration, alarm, fault and status information on its view screen. Touchpoint 1 is controlled and configured interactively via a menu system and a set of control buttons. This chapter provides operational information about the following: •...
Operation Information on the Display The controller features a user interface that, during normal operation, displays gas reading information, and also system fault and information messages. It displays status and configuration information about the system via a menu options accessed and controlled via four buttons (3 are hidden) below the display, see page 31 and page 32.

Operation Cancelling Operations/Choices To cancel operations/choices: Press the — Cancel — button. This returns to the previous menu level, setting, etc. Pressing Cancel again returns to normal operation. Note The system automatically returns to normal operation if no buttons are pressed for more than 30 minutes.
Caution Calibration of the gas detector and the controller is mandatory during commissioning to ensure their proper functioning. This chapter describes how to put the two versions of Touchpoint 1 into service with the following different types of gas detectors: •...

Commissioning Apply power to the controller and switch it on. See page 25. To skip the warm up sequence press the Cancel button for 3 seconds. Check for a minimum voltage of 2.9 Vdc at the detector. If incorrect check for constant current supply of 200 mA +/-2 mA.
Check for a minimum voltage of 16 Vdc at the gas detector. For detectors other than Sensepoint Toxic/Oxygen refer to their operating instructions. Check that the Touchpoint 1 display shows the correct gas units and range for the detector in use.
Commissioning 3-wire 4-20 mA Source This covers connection to gas detectors such as Sensepoint Plus and Sensepoint Pro. Set up the gas detector. Refer to the detector’s user manual for details describing how to set up the detector. Check that all power and electrical connections to the controller, and electrical connections to the gas detector are correct.

Apply calibration (span) gas to the detector at a flow rate of 0.3 l/min. Note Honeywell Analytics recommend the use of half full-scale gas for calibration purposes (contact a distributor for the supply of calibration gas). The gas reading on the controller display shows the measured reading from the detector When the gas reading is stable adjust the reading to the actual concentration of the calibration gas being applied to the detector.
User Settings Press OK. The display then shows a 10 second countdown. When the countdown is complete the display shows GOOD if the span has succeeded. If the span fails the display shows FAIL and returns to the beginning of the span menu. Press OK.
User Settings To view the other 9 records repeat the procedure. Note The time and date for each record is shown at the bottom of the display in a sequence of three parts. Each part is displayed for 2 seconds. For example if the time for the record is 18 minutes past 12 o'clock on July 27th, 2004 then the display shows: •...
