17  System Troubleshooting 
This section explains how to deal with problems that may occur during system operation. 
Contact Honeywell Analytics for support if required, using the contact details given on the last page of this manual, and 
having the system details ready (found on the label inside the TPPR Controller’s enclosure). 
17.1  Observed Problem 
Unexpected 
timeout during 
configuration 
When you enter 
the System Setup 
menu, a 20 
minute 
configuration 
timeout is active 
as well as the 
user login timeout 
To avoid this timeout, send a value to the Touchpoint 
Pro system within the 20 minute period. 
If the timeout has occurred, it may be necessary to set 
the module back to Normal state. Navigate to the 
System Setup screen, select the module and from the 
Tools menu select Set Normal state. 
If this was a first time configuration, all data will have 
been deleted and the channel decommissioned. If you 
were editing a channel, any data not sent to the 
Touchpoint Pro system will be lost. 
 ‘The Network 
Initialisation 
failed; the Ring 
Network is 
interrupted. 
Please check the 
Ring Network 
wiring and retry 
the initialisation 
once the 
interruption is 
rectified.’ 
The system 
shows the 
message before 
reverting to the 
Tools menu: 
Retry the initialisation once the interruption is rectified. 
Refer to Ring Troubleshooting for further information. 
Cannot clear 
Inhibit from a 
Channel 
It is possible to 
have more than 
one inhibit 
condition active 
on a channel, and 
you have to 
resolve all inhibit 
conditions before 
the inhibit can be 
cleared 
Ensure all Inhibits are cleared. Refer to detailed actions 
below for I/O channels. 
Channel / alarm is 
not functioning as 
expected 
Some parameters 
may be defined in 
a different way 
Check the definitions of parameters in Commissioning, 
Channel Configuration and verify settings accordingly. 
Cannot clear Auto 
Inhibit from 
channel 
System has 
exited 
configuration 
unexpectedly, 
leaving module in 
configuration 
state 
Navigate to the System Setup screen, select the module 
and from the Tools menu select Set Normal state. 
Alternatively go to System Configuration> System 
Setup. Select one channel of the module, and select 
Edit Configuration. Close the popup windows and the 
module will automatically return to Normal state. 
AIM mV channel 
has not yet been 
calibrated 
(For catalytic bead type detectors, the Touchpoint Pro 
controller is necessary to complete the measuring 
circuit. Therefore all commissioned mV channels remain 
in Inhibit state until they are calibrated.)
