WARNING
!
Read and understand this manual before installing, operating, or maintaining the transmitter. Pay particular attention to these warnings and cautions. All of the warnings and cautions shown here are repeated in the appropriate sections of the manual.
Warnings identify hazardous or unsafe practices which could result in severe injury or death.

Warnings

Installation must be in accordance with the recognized standards of the appropriate authority in the country concerned.
Any work on the interior of the detector must be conducted only by Honeywell­trained personnel
Before carrying out any work, ensure that local regulations and site procedures are followed. Appropriate standards must be followed to maintain the overall certification of the sensor.
To reduce the risk of ignition in hazardous atmospheres, disconnect the equipment from the supply circuit before opening the sensor enclosure. Keep the assembly tightly closed during operation. Conduit runs must have a seal fitting connected within 18 inches (45 cm) of the enclosure.
Never open the XNX enclosure under power unless the area is known to be non­hazardous.
Do not use the XNX Universal Transmitter in oxygen-enriched atmospheres. In oxygen-enriched atmospheres, the electrical safety is not guaranteed.
The sensor must be earthed/grounded for intrinsic safety, electrical safety and to limit the effects of radio frequency interference. Earth/ground points are provided inside and outside the unit. EMI note for applications using shielded cable: Cable shield must provide 90% coverage of the wiring. Cable shield terminations must be made at the cable glands with suitable EMI type glands. Avoid terminating cable shields at the Earth ground lug inside the XNX enclosure. In cases where wiring is in pipe, a shielded cable is not required. The external terminal is only a supplemental bonding connection where local authorities permit or require such a connection.
Take care when handling EC sensor cells as they may contain corrosive solutions. Do not tamper or in any way disassemble the sensor cells. Do not expose to temperatures outside the recommended range. Do not expose the sensor to organic solvents or flammable liquids.
At the end of their working lives, sensors must be disposed of in an environmentally safe manner, in accordance with local waste management requirements and environmental legislation. Alternatively, sensors may be securely packaged, clearly marked for environmental disposal, and returned to Honeywell Analytics. Do NOT incinerate sensors as they may emit toxic fumes.
High off-scale readings may indicate an explosive concentration of gas.
Verify all outputs, including display, after installation, after service events, and periodically to ensure the safety and integrity of the system.
Do not use the transmitter in oxygen-enriched atmospheres. Concentrations displayed will be adversely affected by oxygen depletion.
After changing parameters with a handheld device, verify that the parameter settings are correct at the transmitter.
The factory-set passcodes must be reset to prevent unauthorized access to the transmitter’s menus.
When the transmitter is equipped with the optional Remote Mount Kit, the remote sensor must be securely mounted in a fixed position. The Remote Sensor kit is not intended to be used as a handheld sensor.
Safety and Information

XNX Universal Transmitter
Enclosures of remotely mounted sensors contain aluminum. When installed in Zone 1 locations, be careful to avoid ignition hazards due to impact or friction.
Install the junction box according to local codes and manufacturer’s requirements.
The enclosures of remotely mounted 705HT sensors contain aluminum. When installed in Zone 1 locations, be careful to avoid ignition hazards due to impact or friction.
Power off the transmitter before changing S3 or S4. Failure to do this will permanently damage the transmitter. Both switches must be set in either Source or Sink prior to applying power.
Do not set the minimum or maximum controller alarm levels at less than 10% or greater than 90% of the full scale range of the sensor. CSA and FM agency limits are 60% LEL or 0.6mg/m3.
When configuring or communicating with the transmitter using the front panel displays, resume monitoring by exiting all menus and returning to the General Status menu manually. No time outs are invoked.
When selecting a new target gas for units with a Searchpoint Optima Plus, the sensor must be recalibrated.
XNX Universal Transmitters carrying UL/CSA/FM approvals that are configured for devices measuring %LEL will not allow adjustments to the full scale value. The range is fixed at 100%.
There is a potential loss of sensitivity during exposure to high concentrations of H2S. Under these conditions, set the control unit to latch at overrange. In standalone configuration, set alarms to latching. When resetting the overrange or alarm, verify correct operation of the transmitter.
Keep the passwords in a secure area to prevent unauthorized access to the transmitter. If the passwords are lost, resetting the transmitter will require a service technician.
When the transmitter is placed in Inhibit Mode, alarms are silenced. This will prevent an actual gas event from being reported. Inhibit Mode must be limited to testing and maintenance only. Exit Inhibit Mode after testing or maintenance activities.
Honeywell recommends periodic bump tests (every 30 days or in accordance with customer site procedures) to the sensor to insure proper operation and compliance with the functional safety rating of the installation.
Honeywell Analytics recommends bump testing of ClO2, Cl2, HF, and HCl sensors frequently and in accordance with customer site procedures to ensure proper operation and compliance with the functional safety rating of the installation.
As some test gases are hazardous, exhaust the flow housing outlet to a safe area.
Exposure to desensitizing or contaminating substances or concentrations causing operation of any alarm may affect sensor sensitivity. Following such events, verify sensor performance by performing a functional gas test (bump test).
When servicing or replacing sensors, reduce the risk of ignition in hazardous atmospheres by declassifying the area or disconnecting the equipment from the supply circuit before opening the sensor enclosure. Keep the assembly tightly closed during operation.
Take appropriate precautions when using toxic, flammable, or pressurized cylinders.
XNX transmitter is SIL2 approved and please refer to XNX transmitter safety manual (1998-0808) for the detail of SIL certificate.
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE
To minimize the risk of electrostatic discharge:
Ground the transmitter adequately
Install the transmitter in a manner that will prevent accidental electrostatic
discharges, e.g. ensure that objects do not rub against the housing etc.
Clean the enclosure with a damp cloth when necessary

NOTE

Hazardous Location Installation Requirements

Read and understand this manual prior to installation and use.
Use only certified cable glands for installation.
Shielded armored cable is required for CE compliance.
To reduce the risk of ignition in hazardous atmospheres, conduit runs must have a pour gland installed within 18 inches (45 cm) of the enclosure.
All ¾ inch NPT conduit, stopping plugs, and adapters must be installed with 5¼ threads (minimum) engaged to maintain the explosion-proof rating.
The XNX cover assembly must be fully seated to the enclosure (7 threads minimum) to maintain the explosion-proof rating.
Use only the supplied stopping plugs (Honeywell part number 1226-0258) with the XNX Universal Transmitter.
For units fitted with the optional relay module: relay contact ratings are 250 VAC 5A, 24 VDC 5A resistive loads only.
Use copper conductors only. Tighten terminal block screws to 4.5 lb/in (max).
For XNX-UT**-***** transmitters, refer to XNX control drawing 1226E0402.

Special Conditions for Safe Use

The following applies to the HART Barrier intrinsically safe circuits: For installations in which both the Ci and Li of the intrinsically safe apparatus exceed 1% of the Co and Lo parameters of the associated apparatus (excluding the cable), then 50% of Co and Lo parameters are applicable and shall not be exceeded, i.e., the Ci of the device plus the C of the cable must be less than or equal to 50% of the Co of the associated apparatus, and the Li of the device plus the L of the cable must be less than or equal to 50% of the Lo of the associated apparatus.
For circuits connected to the EC barrier in which the capacitance and inductance exceed 1% of the permitted values, the maximum permitted capacitance is limited to 600 nF for group IIC and 1uF for group IIIC.
The connection to the HART circuit shall be rated a minimum of IP 6X.
Delays resulting from transmission errors between sensor and transmitter extend
response times T90 by more than one-third. The period until fault indication is 10 seconds.
The HART interface is subject of this EC-type examination certificate only for the purpose of configuration and maintenance. The options “Modbus interface” and “FOUNDATION Fieldbus interface” are not subject of this EC-type examination certificate.
Long-term exposure (>20 minutes) to concentrations exceeding the full-scale range of the H value may then decrease even though high levels of toxic gas are still present. If such conditions can occur, set the control unit to latch at overrange. In standalone operation, set alarms to latching. When resetting the overrange or alarm, verify the correct operation of the transmitter. Before re-calibrating the transmitter, verify the absence of gas.
The flameproof joints are not intended to be repaired.

Product Description

The Transmitter

The transmitter is a comprehensive gas detection system designed to operate in hazardous locations sensor technologies –catalytic bead, electrochemical (EC),
or infrared (IR)– to detect toxic gases, ammable gases, and
oxygen depletion gas hazards. Each technology has a dedicated personality board.
Catalytic bead technology is used with the mV personality board. Catalytic bead sensors respond to a wide variety of
combustibles so are typically used for ammable gas detection.
Electrochemical technology is used with the electrochemical board. EC sensors measure toxic gases in low concentrations. The EC sensors employ the patented Reex™ cell fault
diagnosis routine. Reex checks for cell presence, cell dry-out, and cell open or short circuit. Reex is automatically initiated by the transmitter at eight-hour intervals. It is also initiated on
power up or sensor exchange. In the event of a cell failing this
test, a sensor fault code is displayed. Reex diagnostics occur in the rst minutes of the power up sequence.
Infrared technology is used with the IR board. IR sensors optically absorb gases that fall into the infrared spectrum.
For additional information about any of these sensor types, refer to the applicable data sheet for the supported sensor in Figure 1.
The transmitter also allows for an optional communication board. There are three types of boards: relay, Modbus
1
There are three main types of gas hazards: ammable, toxic, and asphyxiant. A am-
mable gas hazard is one in which there is a risk of re and/or explosion (e.g., a situation in which a gas such as methane, butane, or propane is present). A toxic gas hazard is one in which there is a risk of poisoning (e.g., a gas such as carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulde, or chlorine is present). An asphyxiant hazard would include a risk of suffocation through oxygen deciency. (Oxygen can be consumed or displaced by another gas.)

A 5-coat marine nishing process provides
the highest degree of corrosion protection. For more information
on performance specications, see the Specications section.
The enclosure is equipped with up to ve threaded cable/conduit ports providing functional and exible congurations based on
sensor and option choices. See Cable/conduit port assingments for port assignments and restrictions.
Stopping plugs (PN# 1226-0257 or 1226-0258) have been provided to seal unused cable/conduit ports and have been Agency evaluated/approved for use with the XNX enclosure only.
The number of stopping plugs varies among available congurations.
Caution: The stopping plugs are for use only with the XNX transmitter. Do not use them with any other device.
Mounting lugs integral to the enclosure allow easy installation
on a at surface or 2”-6” (50-150 mm) diameter pipe with the optional Pipe Mount Kit or to ceilings with the Ceiling Mount Bracket Kit.

POD
The POD (Personality, Options, and Display) includes circuit boards for the personality module, optional interfaces, and display.
The personality module, or circuit board, determines the transmitter behavior based on the sensor type attached to the transmitter (electrochemical cell, catalytic bead sensor, or infrared) and provides the necessary interface. Connection to the attached sensor is made through the sensor connector.
The optional communication boards vary depending on the
option selected when ordered. Only one of the three available interface options (relays, Modbus, or FOUNDATION Fieldbus)
can be attached to the transmitter.

Options

Local HART
Available with any sensor technology or personality, an external access to the HART interface in the transmitter is provided. An intrinsically safe (IS) barrier inside the transmitter gives the user full control using a handheld eld communicator for programming and conguration. The external interface is installed in the lower left cable/conduit port of the transmitter
and is intrinsically safe. For more information, see the HART
Protocol section.

!
Note: POD options are either relay, Modbus, or FOUNDATION Fieldbus.
Relays
The relay option (XNX-Relay) provides 3 form “C” (SPDT) normally open/normally closed (NO/NC) contacts for alarm and fault indication. A remote reset input (TB4) is provided to silence
alarms. Momentarily closing the the circuit between the pins of
TB4 performs the same function as the Reset Alarms & Faults
command.
The remote reset switch (designated TB-4 and labeled “Remote
Reset SW”) is located on the relay option board. It provides a remote hardware-based reset of faults and alarms to the
transmitter. In the event that direct access to the local and
®
HART
transmitter may be reset remotely using a momentary switch. This will momentarily close the circuit between the two pins of
TB4, providing the same functionality as a Reset Alarms & Faults
command performed from the main screen of thelocal user or the
HART interfaces.
Relays are not available when the Modbus Fieldbus options are installed.
The transmitter has three relays: relay 1 is for alarm level 1, relay 2 is for alarm level 2, and relay 3 is for faults and special states. Two
alarm levels can be set, allowing, for example, a level 1 alarm for the immediate area when a certain gas concentration is detected
and a plant-wide level 2 alarm when a greater gas concentration is
detected.

Sensor Mounting and Location

Warning: Installation must be in accordance with the recognized standards of the appropriate authority in the country concerned.
Warning: Before carrying out any work, ensure that local regulations and site procedures are followed. Appropriate standards must be followed to maintain the overall certification of the sensor.
Caution: Locate transmitters and sensors in accordance with relevant local and national legislation, standards, and codes of practice.
Caution: Do not locate the transmitter where it will be exposed to direct sunlight.
Caution: Replace a detector only with another of the same type.
Caution: Mount detectors where the gas is most likely to be present.
When determining the placement of sensors, follow the advice of safety and engineering personnel and experts having specialist knowledge of gas dispersion, the process plant system, and the equipment involved. Record the agreement reached on the location of sensors. Consider these factors when locating gas sensors:
• possible damage caused by natural events such as rain or
ooding
• ease of access for functional testing and servicing
• how escaping gas may behave due to natural or forced air currents.

Mounting the Transmitter

The transmitter can be mounted in a number of ways using the integral mounting tabs. The transmitter can be attached
to at wall surfaces or to Unistrut®. With the optional pipe
mount kit, the unit can be mounted to pipe of diameter 2” to 6” (50 to 150mm). A ceiling mount bracket kit is also available.

Wiring the Transmitter
The transmitter is available in sensor technologies, or personality options, which support a variety of sensors and applications. Each of the personalities use a dedicated interface board. Pluggable terminal blocks are used for easy connection and service. The personality boards and optional communication interfaces are enclosed in plastic housings comprising the electronics POD (Personality, Options, and Display). The Personality circuit board determines the transmitter’s behavior based on the type of sensor attached to the interface. See

performance of the transmitter. For best reliability use resistive loads only.
Isolation
Isolate the power and signal-carrying conductors.
General Wiring Considerations
For proper operation of the transmitter and sensor technologies, consideration of wiring-induced voltage drops, transient electrical noise, and dissimilar earth ground potentials is imperative in the design and installation of the system.
Warning: The sensor must be earthed/grounded for intrinsic safety, electrical safety and to limit the effects of radio frequency interference. Earth/ground points are provided inside and outside the unit. EMI note for applications using shielded cable: Cable shield must provide 90% coverage of the wiring. Cable shield terminations must be made at the cable glands with suitable EMI type glands. Avoid terminating cable shields at the Earth ground lug inside the XNX enclosure. In cases where wiring is in pipe, a shielded cable is not required. The external terminal is only a supplemental bonding connection where local authorities permit or require such a connection.
Loading
When wiring for DC power, 4-20mA signal, remote wiring to
sensors must be sized sufciently to provide adequate voltages
for the line length and the loads that will be used.
Circuit Protection
Supply circuits must provide over-current protection. Consider inrush current in specifying any DC supply. Power supply range is 16 to 32 VDC for EC and mV versions, 18 to 32 VDC for Searchpoint Optima Plus and Searchline Excel, and 16 to 32 VDC depending on the limitations of the device for the generic 4-20mA input.
Distance Considerations for Installation
Adequately powering the transmitter is the factor that determines an installation’s maximum distance. The 4-20 mA output signal will easily handle the distance back to the control
equipment.
The primary factors determining distance are the minimum oper-
ating voltage of the transmitter and/or sensor; the maximum current draw of the transmitter/sensor, the resistance of the
wire used, the power supply voltage, and the current capacity of power supply. An additional consideration is the type of
installation; specically, how many transmitters/sensors are
drawing power from the same power supply and whether these transmitters are using the same pair of wires (“daisy-chained”) or have their own connections.
The use of high inrush or inductive loads may affect the

Types of Installations
There are three basic types of installation: a single transmitter; multiple transmitters connected to a single power source; and
multiple transmitters connected in a “daisy-chain” conguration.
Single Transmitter
This is the simplest type of installation. It consists of a single XNX transmitter installation per power source.
Figure 27. Single transmitter installation
Advantages:
Advantages:
• Maximum distance between power source and transmitters
• Fewer power sources.
Disadvantages:
• Larger power source will be needed
• If a power source fails, several monitoring points fail.
Multiple Transmitters Connected in a “Daisy-Chain” Configuration
This conguration consists of two or more transmitters installed
in a line. The power connections are installed as an extension of
the previous transmitter, with the rst transmitter being the only
one actually wired to the power source.
• Maximum distance between power source and transmitter
• Smaller power source
• If a power source fails, only one monitoring point fails.
Disadvantage:
• Multiple transmitters require multiple power sources.
Multiple Transmitters Connected to a Single Power Source
This is two or more transmitters sharing a single power source with each transmitter having its own dedicated wiring to the
power source.
Figure 28. Multiple transmitters powered by a single power supply
Installation and Operation

Figure 29. Daisy-chained transmitters from one power supply
Advantages:
• Less wire needed for installation
• Fewer power sources.
Disadvantages:
• Requires a larger power source
• Shorter distance between power source and transmitters.
• If a power source fails, several monitoring points fail.
34
XNX Universal Transmitter
NOTE
!
Note: CSA/FM certification does not cover daisy-chained XNX combustible gas transmitters.
Power Source Selection
For each type of installation, selection of power supply is important. Power supplies are rated by voltage and power. The nominal voltage for all XNX transmitters is 24V with the power required depending on the number of points using the same power supply.
As a general guideline, the power supply should be capable of providing more power than is required by the installation. A
10 watt power supply is ne for a single XNX mV with catalytic
sensor (6.5 watts required, see the following table) but is inadequate for a single XNX IR with Searchpoint Optima Plus (10 watts required).

To determine the wattage required, add the maximum power requirements of all the points that will share the power supply. For example, consider a system with two XNX mV transmitters with catalytic sensors (6.5 watts each) and one XNX IR with Searchpoint Optima Plus (10 watts). A 25 watt power supply would probably handle this installation, but a 30 watt power supply would be a better choice.
Wire Selection
The type of wire used for connections has an effect on the distance of the installation. This is because some of the voltage is dropped across the cable between the power supply and the
transmitter.
Thinner wire (i.e., 18 AWG) will lose more voltage than thicker wire (i.e., 12 AWG). The amount of voltage lost depends on how
much current is being drawn through the wire; more current
means more loss. If too much voltage is ropped across in the wiring, there may not be enough at the distant point to allow the transmitter to operate.

Single Transmitter Distances
For installations that have dedicated wiring between the transmitter and the power supply, use the following chart. These distances assume stranded wire is used.

Daisy-Chained Transmitter Distances
It is difcult to calculate distances for this conguration. There
are many factors to be considered: distance from control room
to rst transmitter, distance between transmitters, sensor types,
etc. A few scenarios are presented here to provide a base to work from.

Ensure that wiring is adequately protected from mechanical damage during installation. Shorted or open-circuit wiring to an MPD **I** sensor may result in a full-scale concentration reading before the transmitter’s internal diagnostics can identify the external installation fault.
POD Connections
This illustration shows the connections available on of the terminal blocks for each type of personality board.
Figure 33. Personality board terminal block legend
Each of the personalities uses a single terminal block for connection with the exception of the IR personality, which features a second terminal block.
The personality boards also provide a dedicated pair of jumper
switches to dene output of the transmitter as isolated 4-20mA,
Sink 20mA, or Source 20mA as well as a service jumper to allow power to the loop to continue when the transmitter is being serviced. A separate connector is used to activate local HART (see the Local HART Interface section).
Installation and Operation
Local HART provides an external access to control the transmitter. An intrinsically safe (IS) barrier inside the
transmitter allows the user to attach an external handheld eld communicator for programming and conguration. The external
interface is intrinsically safe. It is installed in the transmitter’s
lower left cable/conduit port.

Keep the total load resistance for the 4-20mA between 200 and 500, including the resistance of the properly selected 4-20mA cable and input impedance of the equipment to be connected.
Failure to perform ‘Calibrate mA Output’ or with loads outside the recommended values may result in a diagnostic warning or fault messages.
If the 20 mA output is not used, a 500 ohm resistor must be installed.
The transmitter’s power consumption is dependent on the
sensor and options for the specic conguration. For proper
operation, the input voltage must be maintained between 16 and 32 VDC for EC and mV units and between 18 to 32 VDC for IR
units.

mV Personality Wiring
A transmitter with the mV personality board allows interface to the Multi Purpose Detector (MPD), 705, and Sensepoint devices.
Caution: See Specifications to ensure that the transmitter and the mV sensor have the
appropriate approvals prior to commissioning.
Caution: Verify that the mV sensor being installed has compatible threads (3/4 NPT or
M25).
Read the Wiring the Transmitter section which denes the power and 4-20mA output connections that are common to all personalities.
Connections from the mV sensor to the transmitter are made via a single pluggable terminal block. Honeywell Analytics recommends that an 8” (20 cm) service length for wiring be maintained. The wire colors for the connections for each sensor type are shown in the table on this page.
Verify that wires for 4-20mA outputs are routed away from sources of noise such as relay wires.
Note: The black and red wires from the MPD are not used with the mV personality
board. Ensure that they are properly isolated from live connections. Do not cut the
wires.
!
Caution: Dress the wires properly so that cabling does not contact switches 1 or 2
on the back of the POD. Do not force the POD into the enclosure. Doing so may result
in damage to the wiring or the POD. If resistance is felt, wires may be preventing the
POD from being properly positioned.

mV Remote Sensor Mounting
The sensor can be mounted remotely from the transmitter; the
installation will vary by installed location, sensor and thread type used. To remotely mount the sensor, follow this procedure:
1. Install a junction box appropriately rated for the
environment. Allow sufcient room for the installation and
calibration of the sensor. (MPD sensors must be installed with the sinter pointing down.)
2. Loosen the retainer locking screw on the transmitter with the supplied hex key.
3. Unscrew the transmitter’s weatherproof cover and loosen the retainer locking screw with the supplied hex key.
4. Run conduit or cable from one of the transmitter’s available conduit ports to the location of the remote terminal housing in accordance with local requirements.
A terminal housing provides a mounting base for the sensor. The installation wiring enters the terminal housing
via conduit. UL and CSA require a conduit pour tting
within 18 in. (45 cm) of each enclosure.

Calibration section.
Note: Environmental conditions that compromise the IP66 protection provided by the weatherproof cover will extend published response times. Safety protocols or maintenance procedures that consider these environmental conditions are recommended.
IR Personality Wiring
The RS-485 digital communication is the primary interface in which the transmitter reads gas concentration and sensor status
from the Optima Plus/Searchline Excel. If RS-485 communication fails, the Optima Plus/Searchline Excel 4-20mA output becomes
the primary source to read gas concentration.
The transmitter allows local programming and conguration
through the local LCD display as well as through the HART protocol. Gas concentrations can be viewed at the transmitter from the Searchpoint Optima Plus or Searchline Excel via 4-20mA output as well as from the digital communication connection on TB2 that can provide additional diagnostic information. The gas concentration is taken from the digital communication line as long as it is in agreement with the 4-20 mA output, otherwise the 4-20mA output takes precedence.
Caution: Dress the wires properly so that cabling does not contact switches 1-4 on the back of the POD.

CAUTION
NOTE
The transmitter provides a 4-20mA output reecting the input
received. It also offers diagnostic information or data via HART or any of the additional communication options offered.
Read the Wiring the Transmitter section which denes the transmitter power and 4-20mA output connections that are common to all personalities.
!
Caution: Do not force the POD into the enclosure. Doing so may result in damage to the wiring or the POD or may alter the switch settings. If resistance is felt, wires may be preventing the POD from being properly positioned.
Searchpoint Optima Plus/Searchline Excel Connections
Connections from the Searchpoint Optima Plus or Searchline Excel to the transmitter are made via two pluggable terminal blocks (see the IR personality board wiring guide). Maintain an 8-inch service length of wiring.
In remote mount congurations, the maximum distance between
the transmitter and Optima Plus or Excel is 100 feet (33 meters) using 0.75 mm
2
(18 AWG) wire minimum.
The Searchpoint Optima Plus or Searchline Excel can be supplied in either Sink or Source mode operation and is typically labeled on the white wire exiting the Searchpoint Optima Plus or
Searchline Excel. Use the table in the IR personality board wiring
guide to set S3 and S4 to the same output type that appears on
the wire tag of the IR device. For more information see the Searchpoint Optima Plus Operating
Instructions (2108M0905) or the Searchline Excel Technical Manual (2104M0506).
Connecting Generic mA Devices
Use the following schematics to set switches S3 and S4 They
must
be set to the same output type (which appears on the wire
tag of the mA device).
The IR personality type provides for a generic mA input under

Searchpoint Optima Plus/Searchline Excel Wiring
When wiring the transmitter and the Searchpoint Optima Plus or Searchline Excel for remote applications, the general
recommendations of the ANSI/TIA/EIA-485-A standard must be
adhered to with the following additions:
1. When mounting the Searchline Excel sensor or Searchpoint Optima Plus detector, run the wiring between each sensor or detector and the transmitter in separate, dedicated conduits.
2. Use 18 AWG twisted shielded cable for the RS485 connection between sensor or detector and the transmitter. Verify that the shield of the cable is grounded to earth and the XNX ground on one end ONLY.
3. Avoid running wiring near main cables or other high­voltage equipment.

6. Perform a soft reset after connecting the Searchpoint
Optima Plus detector and the transmitter for the rst time.
The soft reset is performed by accessing the transmitter’s Calibration Menu. When the soft reset is initiated for the Optima IR sensor, the RS-485 communication will
be interrupted temporarily and faults F120 and/or F161
may be observed. RS-485 communication will be re­established in a few minutes and the faults will be reset automatically in non-latching mode. The faults must be reset manually in latching mode

Options

Local HART Interface
Available with any sensor technology or option, this option provides an external access to the HART interface in the transmitter. An intrinsically safe (IS) barrier inside the
transmitter allows the user to attach an external handheld eld communicator for programming and conguration. The external interface is installed in the lower left cable/conduit port of the
transmitter and is intrinsically safe.
Figure 54. XNX Universal Transmitter with HART interface IS barrier installed
The HART protocol is a communication technology used with smart process instrumentation, providing two-way communication simultaneously with the 4-20mA analog signaling used by traditional instrumentation equipment. For more detailed information on HART, see the the HART Protocol section and
www.fieldcommgroup.org.
Implementation of the HART protocol in the transmitter:
HART devices can operate in point-to-point or multidrop
congurations.
Caution: Device address changes must be performed only by qualified service personnel
Point-to-Point Mode
In point-to-point mode, the 4–20 mA signal is used to communicate one process variable, while additional process
variables, conguration parameters, and other device data are
transferred via HART protocol, as shown in the illustration below. The 4–20 mA analog signal is not affected by the HART signal.

NOTE
Cable Length
Most installations are well within the 10,000 ft. (3,000 m) theoretical limit for HART communication. However, the electrical characteristics of the cable (mostly capacitance) and the combination of connected devices can affect the maximum allowable cable length of a HART network. The table below shows the effect of cable capacitance and the number of network devices on cable length. The table is based on typical installations of HART devices in non-IS environments, i.e., no miscellaneous series impedance.
More information for determining the maximum cable length
for any HART network conguration can be found in the HART

Relays
The relay option (XNX-Relay) provides 3 form “C” SPCO contacts for alarm and fault indication. A remote reset is provided to silence alarms.
The remote reset switch (designated TB-4 and labeled “Remote Reset SW”) is located on the relay option board. It provides a remote hardware-based reset of faults and alarms to the transmitter. In the event that direct access to the local user and HART interfaces is not possible, alarms and faults from an XNX transmitter can be reset remotely using a switch.
The transmitter can be reset by activating a momentary switch. This will momentarily close the circuit between the two pins of TB4, providing the same functionality as a Reset Alarms & Faults command performed from the main screen of the local user or the HART interfaces.
!
Note: This option is not available when the Modbus or FOUNDATION Fieldbus options are installed.
Wiring for the relays is through an available cable/conduit port to a
pluggable terminal block. See Figure 33 for the terminal block legend.
The transmitter has three relays: relay 1 is for alarm level 1, relay 2 is for alarm level 2, and relay 3 is for faults and special states. All special states are indicated by the fault relay.
Honeywell Analytics recommends that the fault relay be used in all installations to maintain safe operation. See Set Alarm Values for more information.

The optional Modbus interface allows all transmitter local user interface functions and parameter settings to be transmitted.
Modbus is a master-slave protocol. Only one master (at a time) is connected to the bus. Modbus communication is always initiated by the master. The slave nodes never transmit data without receiving a request from the master node. The slave nodes never communicate with each other. The master node initiates only one Modbus transaction at a time.

After mounting, wiring the transmitter, wiring the specic mV or IR
sensor, or installing the EC cartridge, the installation is visually and electrically tested as described below.
Warning: This procedure must be performed only by suitably trained personnel following local and site procedures. Verify that the associated control panel is inhibited so as to prevent false alarms.
Warning: Do not set the minimum or maximum controller alarm levels at less than 10% or greater than 90% of the full scale range of the sensor. CSA and FM agency limits are 60% LEL or 0.6mg/m3.
1. Verify that the transmitter is wired correctly according to this manual and the associated control equipment manual.
2. If equipped, unscrew the weatherproof cover, loosen the sensor retainer locking screw, and unscrew the retainer.
3. For EC sensors, plug in the sensor cartridge, taking care to align the sensor pins with the connector holes in the PCB.
Caution: For toxic sensors, remove the shorting clip from the bottom of the sensor prior to installation. No shorting clip is provided with O2 sensors.
Note: Before replacing the cover on the transmitter housing, coat the threads with anti-seize compound to prevent corrosion.
Note: Inspect the cover O-ring for cracking or any other defects that might compromise the integrity of the seal. If it is damaged, replace with the O-ring supplied in the official service kit.
5. Apply power to the transmitter. This will in turn provide power to the sensor.
6. During warmup, the transmitter will be forced to 3 mA (inhibit mode).
7. The display will enter a start up routine displaying the initialization screen, then the transmitter loads its operating system, data from the sensor and checks if it is the same type transmitter and sensor software version numbers, gas type, the detection range and span calibration gas level, estimated time to next calibration due, and self-test result. The boot-up procedure takes about 45 seconds. The LCD and LED test is performed in the initialization after powering on. All LCD pixels and LEDs (red, green, and yellow) are turned on for 1.5 seconds. The LCD then goes blank and the LEDs turn off.
4. Ret the sensor retainer, tighten the locking screw and

Remote Calibration of MPD Sensors
In addition to functional gas testing to ensure the system is operating properly, remote calibration of the MPD CB1 catalytic combustible sensor and MPD IV1 and MPD IF1 infrared combustible sensors can be performed provided the following requirements are met:
• Remote sensor is installed in an indoor environment
Internal air velocity does not exceed 0.5 m/s
• Weather housing part number 0200-A-1640 is installed on the sensor housing
• A 1 LPM regulator is used for calibration gas delivery
Perform the remote calibration procedure in accordance with
The Product Specications section except using the weather
guard (Honeywell part number 0200-A-1640) instead of the regular ow housing (Honeywell part number 1226A0411).
Honeywell Analytics recommends MPD sensor calibration at a maximum interval of 180 days (the default value). This value can be reprogrammed in accordance with site procedures to assure the highest level of safety. Verify the correct operation of each
sensor before each use by calibration with a certied test gas of
known concentration.
The pellistors used in ammable gas sensors can suffer
from a loss of sensitivity when in the presence of poisons or
inhibitors, e.g., silicones, suldes, chlorine, lead, or halogenated
hydrocarbons.
