2.3 Electrical Hazards
Gas detection systems contain electr i cal sup pli es that are potentially dangerous and hence suitable precautions must
be taken to prevent the risk of electrocution. This is especially important when untrained/unqualified persons are
allowed to open the enclosure (e.g. to access/remove/refit the SD Card).
2.3.1 General Safety Precautions
• Read the relevant manual before beginning any operating or service procedures.
• Only personnel trained and certified by Honeywell are authorised to service, fit or remove internal parts.
• Only the minimum number of trained personnel, consistent with safety, should have access to the area while work is
being carried out. If necessary, erect warning signs and barriers.
• Follow accepted working procedures and codes of practice as well as the electrical safety code for the site where the
equipment is installed.
• Never operate the equipment under normal conditions with d oor s open , access panels removed or shorting links
fitted.
• Do not ‘Live Test’ without a Safe System of Work (SSoW).
• Always keep the area around the equipment dry and free of obstructions.
• Switch off and Isolate the equipment if water ingress is suspected or confirmed.
• Never operate the equipment if any Mains power cable is frayed or damaged.
• Never wear wristwatches, rings, bracelets, or other jewellery when working around electrical circuits or moving parts.
• Take anti-static precautions when working on electronic circuits.
• Never work on electrical equipment alone.
Safety
2.3.2 Component Testing and Replacement
Before carrying out any electrical testing or component replacement:
• Read this Manual to become familiar with the location of high voltage components.
• Isolate the system at the main circuit breaker, loc k it in the ‘Off’ position, and attach a notice indicating that
maintenance work is in progress.
• Always wait for 5 minutes after isolating the equipment to ensure that stored energy has dissipated.
• Never assume the polarity of cabling or replacement components. Refer to electrical schematics or contact Honeywell
for confirmation.
• Use only Honeywell approved replacement parts.
Only Honeywell trained and certified maintenance technicians are authorised to carry out component testing and
replacement. Unauthorised work may result in a potentially dangerous situation and will invalidate the

2.3.3 Antistatic Precautions
Batteries shall only be fitted, removed or replaced in non-hazardous (safe) areas.
As with all modern electronic circuits, the Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) in Touchpoint Plus systems utilise some staticsensitive components that can be severely damaged if subjected to static discharge. Static can be generated on the
human body by friction or movement and is discharged through the first contacted route to earth. It can also jump gaps
between items of differing electrical potential.
Static damage is not always immediately apparent and can cause component failure at any time after the static discharge
has occurred. It is, therefore, very important that everyone takes the following precautions when handling PCBs:
• An industry approved antistatic wrist strap, containing a resistive component greater than 1Megohm, must be worn
and connected to an effective earth (ground) point. The continuity between the strap and earth (ground) must be
checked regularly.
• PCBs must only be handled by their non-conductive edges. Do not allow any components, conductive tracks or
contacts to come into proximity with the body, clothing, machinery, power source or any material other than a staticdissipative mat.
• W ith the exception of assemblies containing batteries, anti-static packaging must be used for transporting PCBs and
Integrated Circuits (ICs). All Touchpoint Plus electronic components are shipped in appropriate packaging that can be
re-used when returning items for test or repair.
• Avoid wearing clothing manufactured from, or containing a high proportion of, man-made fibres. These can build up a
high static potential that may not be discharged through the body or wrist strap.
An effective earth (ground) point is the protective earth (ground) bus bar inside the enclosure. This can be used to conne ct
a suitable anti-stat ic w r ist st rap provided that the Gas detection system is connected to protective earth (ground) via the
mains power supply cable.
If installed correctly, the equipment earth (ground) point is co nnec ted dire ctly to mains earth (ground) via
protective earth and the mains power supply cable, and the earth (ground) circuit cannot be broken by operating
Safety
IMPORTANT
the Isolator switch or circuit breaker.
2.3.4 Good Practice
After switching off the system, it is good practice to wait at least 15 seconds before switching it on again. This allows the
circuits and RAM to discharge adequately before being powered-up again. Failing to do so may cause data corruption.
2.3.5 Lithium Battery Hazard
Lithium batteries are fitted to Touchpoint Plus as backup power sources.
Replace the factory installed battery pack TPPLOIBB with Honeywell Analytics Asia Pacific replacement battery pack part
no. TPPLSIBB and the PCB CMOS battery with type CR2032 only.
Use of other batteries may present a risk of fire or explosion.

Normal Operation (Safety
During normal operation:
• The Touchpoint Plus system will collect sensor data every 250 ms from its Input / Output modules.
• The Cause and Effect matrix will be evaluated every 250 ms, and commands sent accordingly to the appropriate
output channels. System response time is ≤1 s.
• Any change in status of an I/O channel will be reported to the User Interface and logged in the event history.
• Events (Alarms, Faults, Inhibits, etc.) will be reported to the User Interface and logged in the event history.
• Any fault within the system will activate the System Fault relay.
• Any failure of the safety function i.e. due to major fault or power loss will activate the System Failure relay.

4.17 Monitoring TPPL via the Optional Web Interface
You can view the TPPL status via an optional Web interface but you cannot currently control it remotely (due late 2016).
The following browsers are currently supported:
• Chrome
• IE10, IE11
• IE8, IE9 (Trend / Plot is not available)
• Safari
• Other browsers may work but their performance may vary.
Note: Please contact Honeywell Support (back page) if a browser security update causes performance issues.
Windows XP has known security issues and therefore must not be used with TPPL.
4.17.1 Web Interface Configuration
The Web Interface is an optional external PC interface tool that provides remote web clients with TPPL data in real time.
From late 2016 you will also be able to acknowledge, inhibit and reset I/O channels and remotely carry out calibration and
configuration.
The Web Interface supports two concurrent web clients but this does not prevent further users from accessing it, although
multiple users will degrade performance across all connected clients.
The TPPL Default IP address is 192.168.0.100, but this may have to be changed if you experience network conflicts or are
monitoring multiple TPPL systems. Please contact your Service Contact if you need help to do this.
The Web Interface show s the curren t TPPL status as follows:
• Channel List View – shows up to six inputs and events with automatic scrolling
• Channel Summary View – shows total counts for alarm 1, alarm 2, alarm 3, fault, warning and inhibits
• Channel Output View – shows up to eight outputs and events
Key to examples below:
• Channel marking in red – one or more input channels are in Alarm
• Channel marking in yellow – one or more channels are in Fault

Chapter 5. Daily / Shift Checks
In most countries it is a legal requirement to keep itemised, time-stamped operations logs that must be made available to
the authorities in the event of a serious accident or incident, and the TPPL digitised event record alone may not satisfy
those requirements.
It is therefore recommended that each shift carries out a formal TPPL handover to the next shift. As a minimum, you
should check and record that:
• the enclosure door is correctly closed and se cure d to prevent tampering, electric shock or ex plosions.
• the Touchscreen is clean, unobstructed and undamaged.
• power and batteries are ok. To check, see and touch:
• the appropriate Channel LEDs are green.
• there are no alarms, inhibits, faults or warnings, and that any recent events are fully briefed and understood.
• there is sufficient SD Card storage space for the entire shift (see Note below). To check, touch:
• the Trend / Plot has restarted for the new shift. To confirm, touch
(Menu>Information>Trend/Plot>Channel>Select>Plot) for each relevant channel.
• there are no maintenance items due that day, e.g. weekly checks or tests, calibrations or sensor replacements.
• both shift leaders have signed the handover-takeover checklist.
You should rectify any issues in accordance with this manual or take alternative precautions before allowing any
hazardous work to proceed.
Note: You have to switch off and isolate power to change the SD card or batteries, so it is usually better done before shift
start as you may have to make alternative safety arrangements while TPPL is off-line. (There is a proposed modification to
shield the live terminals and remove the need for powering off in the future.)
Opening the enclosure exposes potentially lethal live terminals. Always ensure that all TPPL power is switched
off, isolated and allowed to dissipate before opening the enclosure. This includes external mains voltages routed

Chapter 6. Routine Maintenance and Scheduled Testing
This chapter describes how to perform common maintenance operations and system testing. The required frequency of
inspection and maintenance will depend on local site conditions and will need to be established through experience.
Please refer to IEC/EN 60079-29-2 or other local or national regulations for guidance on establishing an appropriate
maintenance routine.
Read Chapter 2 Safety and other related warnings and cautions before carrying out any work on the system.
If the relays are switching mains voltages, hazardous live terminals may be present within the
Relay Output Module even if the Touchpoint Plus system is isolated.
Ensure that all current is isolated and dissipated before touching live terminals.

6.2 Routine Testing
It is normal practice to sound the site alarms weekly, both to check they work and to accustom personnel to the sound
they make.
As it involves isolating / inhibiting emergency sys tem s during testi ng, it migh t be more prudent to test the TPPL relays and
mA outputs only on a planned monthly basis.
Always have alternative safety arrangements in place and alert your personnel before and during testing.
6.2.1 Exercising the Audio/Visual Alarms
Audio/visual alarms can be tested by switching the Dedicated Alarms On. To do this:
1) Ensure that relay activated output systems (i.e. emergency deluge / sirens etc.) are isolated before starting the test.
2) Login as an Administrator or Service.
3) Touch Menu>System Test >Dedicated Alarm Contacts.
4) Touch the appropriate Alarm to toggle it on for each output (see below).
5) Check the alarm outputs are visible / audible and turn them off when satisfied.
6) Touch [Finish] when the tests are completed and all selections will automatically turn off.
Ensure that the system is returned to normal operation once testing is complet e.

Ensure that the system is returned to normal operation once testing is complete.
6.2.4 Calibrating mV Input Channels
Catalytic sensors should be calibrated periodically according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. This should be a
two-person job to avoid the controller timing out and losing the settings.
Note: To enable a calibration interval for the channel, edit the interval setting before starting calibration (see the TPPL
Technical Handbook or call your Service Contact).
You should select First Span only when calibrating a new or replacement sensor for the first time. You then adjust the mV
Baseline, and then you should use Span for all calibrations thereafter (see Note below).
Note: Adjustment of the Baseline is only required when a mV channel is configured for the first time or when a catalytic
bead element is replaced. Once the Baseline is established it should not be adjusted for second or subsequent gas
calibrations, i.e. until the next catalytic bead replacement.
For greater accuracy, catalytic gas detectors should be calibrated using a certified gas/air mixture
equal to 50 %LEL of the actual target gas being monitored. Always refer to the sensor technical manual for

7.1.1 Recommended Backup Battery Maintenance
Monthly a qualified electrical tradesperson should:
• Switch off and isolate TPPL power supplies.
• Visually inspect the Touchpoint Plus Battery and (as the enclosure is open) all internal cabling.
• Check for signs of damage, deterioration, leakage or loose connections.
• Check that the cooling vents have not become obstructed.
7.1.2 How to Replace the Backup Battery
The battery pack goes into sleep mode when it is disconnected or switched off. Connecting the battery pack to a power
source switches it to active mode and it will function normally after a short booster charge.
To replace the battery pack:
1) Ensure that the environment is safe and the atmosphere is below flammable levels.
MAN0996_Iss 1_02/16 Touchpoint Plus
Pt. No. 3011M5044_EN 51 User Guide
