• When Sensepoint XCL reaches the end of its life, it should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. • Do not use cleaning solvents or abrasives to clean the gas detector.
Installation 2) This device must accept any interference received, including inter- ference that may cause undesired operation. This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This equipment complies with FCC ra- diation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. End users must follow the specific operating instructions for satisfying RF ex- posure compliance.
Installation 2.2 Installation Layout 1) A gas detection system using Modbus RTU. Detectors are wired in a daisy chain on a single cable run. 2) A gas detector system using analog current loop principle. Each de- tector is individually wired to the controller on its own cable. 2.3 Detector Module...

Installation 2.6 Securing the Back Box to a Wall CAUTION Before starting installation, make sure that the system controller or external power source is not supplying power 1. There are four screw positions in the rear of the back box for mounting pur- poses.
Page 22
Installation 2. Feel the cable through the cable gland. 3. Turn over the detector module and lo- cate the terminal blocks on the back. Remove the terminal blocks, pulling them toward the center of the module. 4. Connect the cable to the appropriate terminal block.
2.9 Securing the Detector Module to the Back Box NOTE If the mobile Sensepoint XCL app is available, proceed to the next stage to complete the installation, and then perform a calibration us- ing the Sensepoint XCL app. Otherwise, perform a calibration before securing the detector module to the back box.

Installation 1. Remove the front cover from the de- tector module to expose the retaining screws as follows: a) Pull the flap on the bottom side to open it. b) To unlock the front cover, insert a thin, straight tool, such as a small screwdriver, into the hole beside the tube spigot.
Installation 2.10 Remote Gassing Connection If the gas detector is installed in an inaccessible location, such as over- head on a ceiling, connect a tube to the gas detector for bump test or calibration. • For a temporary connection, open the flap on the bottom side and connect suitable tubing compatible with the gas type of the sensor to the tube spigot.
Normal: The indicator is lit solid green when the concentration of the target gas is within normal range. NOTE Using the mobile Sensepoint XCL app, you can change how the green indicator behaves during normal operation, for example, like slow intermittent flashing or staying off.
Bluetooth connected: It is on solid blue when a Bluetooth connec- tion is established. 3.2 Using the Setting Buttons When the mobile Sensepoint XCL app is not available, the setting buttons allow you to perform a calibration or bump test. Be familiar with how to use the setting buttons.

Commissioning Cancel When a task is canceled, the RGB indicator flashes yellow with three short pauses.
Chapter Maintenance 4.1 Calibration This section describes how to perform a calibration using the setting but- tons. Before starting calibration, make sure that the gas detector is pow- ered on. 1. Activate inhibit mode. Make sure that the LED indicator is solid yel- low.
4.2 Calibration Cap If the detector has no tube installed, a calibration cap for Sensepoint XCL, which is sold separately, is required to do a calibration. Use this method to apply a reference gas to the detector using a calibration cap.

Maintenance 1. Remove the front cover. a) Pull the flap on the bottom side to open it. b) Insert a thin, straight tool, such as a paper clip, into the hole beside the tube spigot. c) While applying slight pressure to the tool, turn the cover counter- clockwise until it stops, and then pull it out.
Maintenance 5. To start a gas flow, turn the regulator knob counterclockwise. 6. To stop the gas flow, turn the regula- tor knob clockwise. CAUTION Always use a gas cylinder that is within its expiry date. 4.3 Bump Test This section describes how to perform a bump test using the Sensepoint XCL mobile app.
4.4 Replacing the Sensor NOTE The operating lifetime of the CO sensor is 6 years. If the mobile Sensepoint XCL app is not available, make sure that power is removed before replacing the gas sensor. 1. Press and hold both buttons simul- taneously for 10 seconds to switch to sensor replacement mode.
Page 35
Maintenance 4. Pull out the gas sensor to remove it. CAUTION Do not force the sensor into the socket, otherwise it may be dam- aged. 5. Ensuring that the sensor pins are cor- rectly aligned, insert a new sensor into the sensor socket. 6.
Chapter Mobile App A dedicated mobile app for Sensepoint XCL is available. The mobile app makes it much easier to monitor and maintain Sensepoint XCL detectors. The general procedure of using the mobile app is as follows: 1. Download the Sensepoint XCL app from Google Play, and launch the app.
