TX+GB Wireless Glassbreak Installation Instructions
PLEASE SEE REVERSE SIDE FOR IMPORTANT PRODUCT
WARNINGS AND DISCLAIMER INFORMATION.
Description
The TX+GB is a glassbreak sensor designed to detect breaking glass made by
an intruder breaking a window. The glassbreak sensor contains an acoustic
detection device that detects sounds when glass is broken. The detection
circuit uses an omnidirectional microphone to maximize coverage.
When activated, the sensor transmits a signal to the control panel. The signals
the unit provides are: supervisory, tamper and low battery (as needed). The
sensor is powered by 2x Panasonic CR-123A batteries
The TX+GB features the TX+ Encryption protocol which provides encrypted
wireless communication to select Interlogix control panels. Please refer to your
panel’s installation instructions to see if it is TX+ Encrypted capable.
The TX+GB also utilizes the standard ITI-319 protocol which is compatible with
all Interlogix control panels and receivers.

Enrollment Into TX+ Encryption Supported Panels
To enroll the TX+GB as an encrypted sensor into a panel that supports the TX+
Encryption protocol, follow these steps:
1) Place the panel into program mode, then go to Learn Sensors menu.
Refer to your specific alarm panel manual for details on these
menus.
2) Once the Learn Sensors mode has been activated, remove the
battery pull tabs to auto-enroll the device. Then select the
appropriate sensor group and number. Refer to your specific alarm
panel manual for details on the different sensor groups.
3) If the panel does not respond upon removing the battery pull tabs,
exit the Learn Sensors mode and then remove the front sensor
housing and transmitter from the back housing by depressing the tab
located on the bottom of the device. Remove the batteries from the
sensor.
4) With the batteries removed, return back to the panel and activate the
Learn Sensors mode again. With Learn Sensors mode activated, re-
insert the batteries (paying close attention to the battery polarity
indicators) to auto-enroll the device.
Note: Utilization of the TX+ Encrypted protocol is only compatible with
select Interlogix control panels. When enrolled into a panel that is TX+
Encrypted capable, the enrollment menu screen may indicate “TX+
Encrypted” to verify that the sensor is communicating to the panel via the
encrypted protocol. Please refer to your panel’s installation instructions
to verify that the panel supports TX+ Encrypted capability.
Enrollment Into Non TX+ Encryption Supported Panels (ITI-
319 Protocol)
To enroll the TX+GB into a panel utilizing the standard ITI-319 protocol, follow
these steps:
1) First remove the battery pull tabs from the device.
2) After the pull tabs have been removed, place the panel into program
mode, then go to Learn Sensors menu. Refer to your specific alarm
panel manual for details on these menus.
3) Once the Learn Sensors mode has been activated, remove the front
sensor housing and transmitter from the back housing by depressing
the tab located on the bottom of the device. This will activate the
tamper switch which will auto-enroll the device. Then select the
appropriate sensor group and number. Refer to your specific alarm
panel manual for details on the different sensor groups.
4) If the panel does not respond upon tampering the device, replace
and then remove the cover again to tamper the sensor another time,
or manually press and release the tamper switch located on the
circuit board. Repeat until the panel responds, and then continue to
selecting the appropriate sensor group and number.
Installation Guidelines
The maximum detection range is 20' (6 m) for plate, tempered, laminated and
wired glass.) Coverage is measured from the sensor to the point on the glass
farthest from the sensor (see D and D' in Figure 2 below).
