Alarms
When any detector event occurs, e.g. Alarm 1, Alarm 2 or Fault, the following occurs:
• the status icon for the event flashes, e.g.   — for Alarm 1
• the LED for the type of event flashes, e.g. 
 — ALARM
• the audible alarm sounds
To acknowledge/accept any alarm press the Cancel button. 
This silences the audible alarm and at the same time the related icon and LED on the display
change from flashing to steady. 
For detailed operation of audible and visual alarms under latching/non latching relay
configuration refer to page page 42.
Pressing the Cancel button when there are no alarms/faults tests the display and visual
indicators, without operating the alarm relays.

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. 
Access to the interior of the controller, when carrying out any work, must only be 
conducted by trained personnel. Switch off and isolate the power supply 
to the controller, or obtain a hot work permit, when access is required. Take any 
necessary precautions to prevent false alarms.
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:
• 3-wire mV bridge, see page 34
• 2-wire 4-20 mA sink, see page 36
• 3-wire 4-20 mA source, see page 37
After powering up the Touchpoint 1 for the first time, the controller uses the default factory
settings. 
To customize these settings for new requirements see page 38.
Note On the subsequent diagrams,   = LED ON,  = LED OFF
3-wire mV Bridge
This procedure covers connection to gas detectors such as
Sensepoint Flammable. Carry out the following procedure
1 Check that all power and electrical connections to the 
controller, and electrical connections to the gas detector 
are correct.
For gas detector access see its user manual. For detector to
controller wiring details see page 18.

2 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.
3 Check for a minimum voltage of 2.9 Vdc at the detector. 
If incorrect check for constant current supply of 200 mA 
+/-2 mA. For detectors other than Sensepoint Flammable
refer to their operating instructions. .
4 Close the detector enclosure.
For gas detector details see its user manual. 
5 Press the Up/Down buttons on the controller 
simultaneously.
This enters the configuration mode and the Set Gas Units and
Range menu icon is displayed and flashes.
6 Select the Calibration Menu icon 
Use the Up/Down buttons.
7 Press the OK button.
The top left of the display reads C0 indicating the set zero
menu mode.The display shows the gas reading current real
zero value.
Ensure the sensor is in clean air.
8 Adjust the reading to zero.
Use the Up/Down buttons. 
9 Press OK. 
The display shows a 10 second countdown.
When the countdown finishes the display shows GOOD if set zero has succeeded. 
The display then changes to the set span menu mode indicated by CS in the top left of the
display.
If set zero fails the display shows FA I L and returns to the start of the set zero mode.
10 Fit a flow adapter to the gas detector sensor.
First remove any accessory fitted to the sensor, e.g. weather protection.
11 Apply calibration (span) gas to the detector.
Adjust the gas flow rate to 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 controller now displays the actual gas measurement at the gas detector.
12 Adjust the reading to the actual concentration of the calibration gas applied to the 
sensor.
Use the Up/Down buttons.
 
2-wire 4-20 mA Sink
This describes connection to gas detectors such as Sensepoint Toxic.
1 Set up the gas detector.
Refer to the detector’s user manual for details describing how to set up the detector. 
2 Check that all power and electrical connections to the controller, and electrical 
connections to the gas detector are correct.
For gas detector access see its user manual. For detector to controller wiring details see page 19.
3Follow step 2 on page 35.
4 Check for a minimum voltage of 16 Vdc at the gas detector. 
For detectors other than Sensepoint Toxic/Oxygen refer to their operating instructions.
5 Check that the Touchpoint 1 display shows the correct gas units and range for the 
detector in use.
If not follow the procedure on page 38 to change the gas units and range.
6Follow step 4 on page 35, to step 16 on page 36. 13 Press the OK button.
The display shows a 10 second countdown.
If the set span succeeds the display shows GOOD. 
If the set span fails the display shows FA I L and returns to the
beginning of the set span mode.
After successfully setting the span the display returns to the
menu selection mode.
14 Switch off the calibration test gas and remove the flow 
adapter from the detector.
15 Refit any accessory to the detector.
