Care and Safety

• LGPD – Data processing by Intelbras: Intelbras does not access, transfer, capture, or perform any type of processing of personal data from this product.
• This product is intended for indoor environments.
• Avoid installing the transmitter directly under metallic surfaces to prevent changes in its operating characteristics.
• Confirm the installation location is stable and appropriate.
• Wireless communication technology, when exposed to environments with high power radiation (e.g., near TV towers, AM/FM radio stations, amateur radio stations), may suffer interference and have its performance impaired.
• Do not expose the TX 8000 magnetic sensor to direct sunlight, rain, and moisture. [Visual warning against exposure to direct sunlight, rain, and moisture.]
• For your safety, test the product and systems at least once a week. This is necessary due to changing environmental conditions, electrical or electronic outages, and violations. Take all necessary precautions for the safety and protection of your property.

Product Overview and Sensor Opening

Product Components

The TX 8000 transmitter consists of the following parts:

• Transmitter base: The main housing of the device.
• Screw hole for fixing: Holes for mounting the transmitter with screws.
• Button for registration: Used for pairing the transmitter with the alarm system.
• Light conductor (LED): Indicates the status of the transmitter.
• Transmitter cover: The outer casing that protects the internal components.
• Battery contact: Where the battery connects to power the device.
• Zone input terminal: Connection point for the wired sensor.
• Sync key: Used for synchronization and registration procedures.
• Tamper key: Detects unauthorized opening of the transmitter.

Sensor Opening Procedure

To access the TX 8000 board for registration, battery replacement, or unregistering from the control unit, open the lock with the help of a screwdriver and remove its base. This will expose the board for handling.

After opening, remove the plate and insert the battery (model CR2450), ensuring correct polarity.

Enrolling the TX 8000 Transmitter

The transmitter registration can be performed via the AMT 8000 Desktop Programmer software, the AMT mobile application, keyboard commands, or the synchronization button on the alarm center. The following describes registration via the control panel's synchronization button:

1. Press the alarm control panel synchronization button.
2. LED 3 on the control panel will stay on for 3 minutes, indicating it is ready for transmitter registration.
3. Insert the battery into the transmitter.
4. Press the transmitter sync switch.
5. The status LED will flash green, indicating successful registration. If it flashes red, the registration failed, and the procedure must be repeated.

Deleting the Transmitter Registration

To remove the device from the control panel, perform these two steps:

• Transmitter: Press and hold the transmitter's sync switch for approximately 10 seconds. The status LED will blink red twice slowly.
• Alarm control panel: Enter programming mode and enter the command: Enter + 71 + Zone N° + Enter. (Zone N° can be from 01 to 64).

For alternative removal methods, consult the complete manual of the AMT 8000 control panel.

Identifying the Best Location for Installation

The TX 8000 transmitter provides signal level indications for communication with the AMT 8000 control panel, aiding in selecting the optimal installation location. Follow this procedure:

1. After registration, take the sensor to the environment you wish to protect.
2. Position the sensor in the exact location where it will be installed. Simulate an opening and closing event (e.g., opening and closing a door or window) to test transmission.
3. Observe the LED status color and consult the table below to determine if the sensor can be installed in that location.

If the signal level is not excellent, reposition the TX 8000 and repeat the procedure.

Installation

The TX 8000 can be secured using double-sided tape or screws. For tape installation, clean the surface before applying it to the product base. For screw installation, use the pre-drilled holes on the base. The recommended screw size is 18x3 mm.

Screw Installation: Uses pre-drilled holes on the transmitter base for mounting.

Installation with double-sided tape: Requires cleaning the mounting surface before applying the tape to the transmitter base.

Connection between the TX 8000 and the Wired Sensor

Use an external power source for the wired sensor. Connect the cable from the alarm output (normally closed (NC)) of the wired sensor to terminal CN1 of the TX 8000 universal transmitter.

Install the TX 8000 transmitter in a location fully protected from sunlight, rain, and moisture.

Configuring the TX 8000 Transmitter

Transmitter configurations can be adjusted in two ways:

Configuring the TX800 through the Keyboard

Using the AMT 8000 alarm center keyboard, enter installer programming mode and type the following command:

Enter + 66 + Zone + LED + Enter

Where 'Zone' is the number of the sensor's registered zone (from 01 to 64), and 'LED' refers to the LED configuration (000 = Off, 010 = On).

To close the TX 8000, fit the latches and press the other side for complete closure.

Information about LED Operation

• LED Off: With this option selected, the TX 8000 LED will only illuminate for the first 15 minutes after battery insertion (factory standard).
• LED On: With this option selected, the TX 8000 LED will light up upon every motion detection of the connected wired sensor.

Configuring the LED through the App

After connecting the app to the alarm center, navigate to "Configure center" on the main screen, then select "Sensors".

The following menu structure is used:

• Menu
• Configure central
• Online
• Events
• Configuration
• General
• Zones
• Passwords
• Communication
• Event codes
• IP monitoring
• Ethernet/Wi-Fi
• GPRS
• Scheduled activation/deactivation
• Sensors

Once the "Sensors" option is selected, choose the specific sensor you wish to configure (e.g., Sensor 1).

The adjustment screen will appear. For the TX 8000, sensitivity and operating mode settings are not applicable; only LED configuration is available.

LED Configuration Options:

• Sensitivity: Not applicable.
• Levels: Level 0, Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 (for LED brightness/behavior).

Battery

Use only quality batteries of the correct size for the device. With typical usage, the battery life is forecast to be 3 to 5 years, which can be influenced by the number of activations, weather conditions, and operating mode settings. The required battery model is CR2450, using one battery per transmitter.

This product has an internal battery. After its useful life, batteries must be delivered to an authorized technical assistance service provided by Intelbras or disposed of in an environmentally appropriate manner to avoid environmental and health impacts.
