2. Programming the Transmitter
The HSE1 868-BS transmitter can be programmed in two primary ways: directly from a compatible control panel or by copying the code from an existing, already programmed BiSecur handheld transmitter.
Programming from a Control Panel:
Refer to your garage door or gate operator's manual for specific instructions on how to put the control panel into programming mode. Generally, this involves pressing a 'PROG' button on the operator. Once in programming mode, activate the button on your new HSE1 868-BS transmitter to pair it.

- Hold the new transmitter (receiver) and the existing transmitter (sender) close to each other (within 0-2 cm).
- Press and hold the desired button on the existing transmitter.
- While still holding the button on the existing transmitter, press and hold the button on the new transmitter.
- Wait for the indicator light on the new transmitter to confirm successful programming (e.g., a rapid flash followed by a steady light).
- Release both buttons.

- Ensure you are within the maximum operating range of 30 meters from your garage door or gate operator.
- Press the single button on the transmitter to activate the programmed function (e.g., open, close, or stop the door/gate).

Maintenance
Battery Replacement
The HSE1 868-BS handheld transmitter uses a lithium-metal battery. When the transmitter's range decreases significantly or the indicator light becomes dim or fails to illuminate, it is likely time to replace the battery. Please refer to the 'Battery Installation' section under Setup for detailed steps on how to replace the battery.
Always dispose of used batteries responsibly according to local regulations.
Troubleshooting
- Transmitter not working: Check if the battery is correctly installed and has sufficient charge. Replace the battery if necessary.
- Reduced range: This often indicates a low battery. Replace the battery. Ensure there are no significant obstructions between the transmitter and the receiver.
- Door/gate not responding: Verify that the transmitter is correctly programmed to your operator. If unsure, repeat the programming steps. Ensure the operator itself has power and is functioning correctly.
- Interference: Strong radio signals from other devices might interfere with the transmitter's operation. Try operating from a slightly different position.
If problems persist after following these steps, please contact Hormann customer support.
