Which hand transmitter, which battery?
The essentials about Hörmann hand transmitters at a glance – and how to find out what fits your system.
Recognising BiSecur
- Current Hörmann hand transmitters use BiSecur (868 MHz, encrypted). You recognise them by the abbreviation BS in the type designation, for example HSE 4 BS or HS 5 BS.
- Older Hörmann hand transmitters with 868 MHz fixed code are usually grey with blue buttons. Many BiSecur devices can also learn such fixed codes – ask us whether this works with your system.
- Unsure? Take a photo of your operator's type plate or the old hand transmitter – we tell you what fits. Find items for my system · Upgrade an old system
Which battery does my hand transmitter need?
| Hand transmitters | Battery | Open with | |
|---|---|---|---|
| HS 1 BS, HS 4 BS, HS 5 BS, HSS 4 BS | 1 × 1.5 V AAA (LR03) | Coin (screw cap) | Guide |
| HSE 1 BS, HSE 2 BS, HSE 4 BS | 1 × 3 V CR 2032 | Small flat-head screwdriver | Guide |
| HSD 2 BS | 1 × 3 V CR 2025 | Key supplied | Guide |
| HSZ 1 BS, HSZ 2 BS | 1 × 3 V CR 2 | Separate top and bottom parts | Guide |
| FIT internal radio button, FCT 3-1 radio code keypad | 2 × 1.5 V AAA (LR03) | Detach the housing from the base or back part |
Tip: if the range drops, the battery is usually weak. Do not press any button when changing the battery – then the hand transmitter stays programmed.
Programming a new hand transmitter – three ways
- From the existing hand transmitter: the easiest, without a ladder – hold both hand transmitters side by side.
- Directly on the operator: with the P button (Series 4) or via the PRG menu (Series 3).
- By TECDOOR on site: we program all hand transmitters and buttons of your system. Request programming service
