4.1. Battery Installation

- Close the battery compartment cover securely.
4.2. Mounting the Device
The FIT 4 BS can be mounted on a wall using either double-sided adhesive tape or screws and wall plugs (not included).
- Adhesive Mounting: Clean the desired wall surface thoroughly. Apply strong double-sided adhesive tape to the back of the push button and firmly press it onto the wall.
- Screw Mounting: Mark the desired mounting position on the wall. Drill appropriate holes for wall plugs and screws. Secure the push button to the wall using screws.
Choose a location that is easily accessible and within range of your garage door operator or radio receiver.
4.3. Programming with your Hormann Operator/Receiver
The FIT 4 BS is a 4-channel device, meaning each of its four buttons can be programmed to control a different function or operator. The programming process typically involves a learning function on your Hormann garage door operator or radio receiver.
- Consult your operator's manual: Refer to the specific instruction manual for your Hormann garage door operator (e.g., Promatic/Supramatic 4 series) or radio receiver for detailed programming steps. The process usually involves activating a "learn" mode on the operator.
- Initiate learning mode: Follow the instructions for your operator to put it into learning mode. This often involves pressing a button on the operator's control unit.
- Transmit signal from FIT 4 BS: While the operator is in learning mode, press and hold the desired button on your FIT 4 BS for a few seconds until the operator confirms the signal reception (e.g., by flashing a light or making a sound).
- Test operation: Once programmed, test the button to ensure it correctly controls the intended function.
- Repeat for other channels: If you wish to program other buttons for different functions or operators, repeat the process for each button.
Note: The exact programming procedure may vary depending on the model of your Hormann operator or receiver.
5. Operating the Device
Once programmed, operating the Hormann FIT 4 BS is straightforward.
- Single Press: To activate the programmed function (e.g., open/close garage door), simply press the corresponding button on the FIT 4 BS.
- Multiple Functions: If you have programmed multiple buttons, ensure you press the correct button for the desired action.
The device transmits an impulse signal to the paired receiver/operator.
