The Hörmann HE1 Receiver 315 MHz is a single-channel external radio receiver designed to add or restore remote control functionality to a garage door opener or gate operator using Hörmann’s 315 MHz radio system. Ideal as a replacement receiver or an upgrade for residential or light commercial applications, it allows pairing with compatible Hörmann 315 MHz handheld transmitters so you can open or close one operator via a learned remote command. The compact add-on module is typically mounted near the operator and wired to the control input, making it a practical solution when integrating Hörmann 315 MHz remotes with an existing door or gate control.
Operating on the 315 MHz band used in North America, the HE1 provides a single output channel to trigger one device and is intended for use with Hörmann-branded 315 MHz transmitters only; it is not cross-compatible with other Hörmann frequencies such as 433.92 MHz or 868 MHz. Installation generally involves connecting the receiver to the operator’s control terminals and providing appropriate low-voltage power per the manufacturer’s wiring instructions, then enrolling transmitters through the receiver’s learn function. For best performance, position the unit and antenna for clear reception and follow all safety requirements for automated doors and gates, including proper entrapment protection. Always consult Hörmann’s official documentation for wiring, programming, and compatibility details specific to your operator and transmitter models.
