Transmitter Solutions RECTSMINI2OUT 433 MHz 2-Channel Exterior Receiver Compatibility Details
The Transmitter Solutions RECTSMINI2OUT is the documented 2-relay version of the HIVE Mini Outdoor receiver family. This exterior receiver operates at 433.92 MHz, provides two relay channels, stores up to 85 user codes or transmitters, and uses KeeLoq Hopping Code rolling-code security.
The receiver operates from 12 or 24 VAC/DC power and is housed in an IP65 enclosure for external installations. Transmitter Solutions currently publishes the broader receiver family under part reference RECTSMINI*OUT and lists both 2-channel and 4-channel configurations. The official 2-relay installation manual specifically identifies part number RECTSMINI2OUT.
What the RECTSMINI2OUT Receiver Does
The RECTSMINI2OUT accepts compatible 433.92 MHz rolling-code transmitter commands and operates two receiver relay outputs. The official manual identifies the receiver for automatic closing and anti-burglar systems and documents multiple gate, garage, and control applications.
The receiver supplies radio control commands to compatible equipment. It does not replace an operator's required safety logic, photo eyes, monitored safety edges, entrapment protection, garage door reversal system, emergency access, or other safety circuits.
All Verified RECTSMINI2OUT Applications
- Automatic gate control.
- Garage door control.
- Automatic closing systems.
- Rolling shutter control.
- Awning control.
- Anti-burglar and security appliance control.
- Lighting control applications.
The controlled equipment must accept the receiver relay output and use a suitable control interface. Do not directly switch an unknown mains-voltage, motor, HVAC, lighting, irrigation, or other high-current load through the receiver without proper electrical interface verification.
All Verified Compatible Transmitter References
The official RECTSMINI2OUT 2-relay receiver manual specifically identifies the following usable transmitter references:
- Transmitter Solutions Stingray 433TSPW1V.
- Transmitter Solutions Stingray 433TSPW2V.
- Transmitter Solutions Monarch 433TSPW1K legacy manual reference.
- Transmitter Solutions Monarch 433TSPW2K legacy manual reference.
The current Transmitter Solutions 433 MHz transmitter catalog continues to publish Stingray 433TSPW1V and 433TSPW2V. The current Monarch catalog uses 433TSPW1K-C and 433TSPW2K-C part numbers, while the older RECTSMINI2OUT manual lists the Monarch numbers without the -C suffix.
Do not automatically treat a transmitter suffix difference as irrelevant. Confirm the current Monarch transmitter and receiver compatibility before substituting a -C suffix model for an older no-suffix transmitter reference.
433.92 MHz KeeLoq Hopping Code Operation
The official receiver manual identifies a 433.92 MHz superheterodyne receiver using KeeLoq Hopping Code rolling-code security. The transmitted code changes during operation and the receiver maintains synchronization with compatible transmitters.
A transmitter is not compatible simply because it is marked 433 MHz. Transmitter Solutions also publishes 433 MHz DIP-switch transmitter and receiver products. Fixed-code, DIP-switch, and other rolling-code systems should not be assumed compatible with RECTSMINI2OUT.
85-User Receiver Memory
The current HIVE Mini Outdoor product page lists push-to-learn programming for up to 85 remotes and specifies an 85-user code memory. The official 2-relay manual identifies the memory as full when 85 transmitters are already stored.
The manufacturer documents both individual transmitter deletion and complete memory erasure. Complete erasure removes all stored transmitters and should only be performed when the site's existing remote inventory and reprogramming plan are understood.
Two Relay Output Configuration
The RECTSMINI2OUT manual identifies two output relays labeled K3 and K4.
- Relay K3 - Common and Normally Open contacts.
- Relay K4 - Common, Normally Open, and Normally Closed contacts.
The documented terminal assignments are:
- Terminal 6 - Relay K3 Normally Open.
- Terminal 7 - Relay K3 Common.
- Terminal 8 - Relay K4 Normally Open.
- Terminal 9 - Relay K4 Common.
- Terminal 10 - Relay K4 Normally Closed.
Do not transfer wiring from another receiver by terminal position alone. Confirm the existing relay function and the terminal markings on the physical RECTSMINI2OUT receiver before installation.
Relay K4 Momentary and Latch Operation
The official 2-relay manual documents selectable operation for Relay K4 using jumper JP1.
- JP1 open - Momentary mode.
- JP1 closed - Latch mode.
The manual does not document the same JP1 selectable latch function for Relay K3. Do not assume both receiver channels provide identical latching operation.
Two-Channel Transmitter Programming
The manufacturer programming procedure assigns transmitter button A to the first receiver relay and transmitter button B to the second receiver relay. The P1 learn button and DL3 and DL4 channel LEDs are used during memorization.
Confirm that the selected transmitter has the required number of supported buttons when both receiver channels are needed. A one-button transmitter cannot provide two independently selected transmitter buttons.
12 or 24 VAC/DC Power Requirements
The RECTSMINI2OUT accepts 12 or 24 VAC/DC power. The manual identifies separate supply terminals for Common, 12 VAC/DC, and 24 VAC/DC.
- Terminal 11 - Power supply Common.
- Terminal 12 - 12 VAC/DC supply input.
- Terminal 13 - 24 VAC/DC supply input.
Confirm the operator or controller voltage before wiring the receiver and use the correct supply terminal. For damaged transformers, unknown voltage, unsafe wiring, battery charging faults, or internal operator electrical service, use a qualified gate, garage, low-voltage, access control, or electrical technician.
Manufacturer Current Consumption Documentation Conflict
The current Transmitter Solutions Mini Outdoor product page and the official RECTSMINI2OUT manual do not list the same receiver current consumption figures.
The current product page lists 15 mA steady and 49 mA with two relays excited at 12 VDC, and 19 mA steady and 55 mA with two relays excited at 24 VDC.
The official 2-relay manual instead lists 1.5 mA steady and 40 mA with two relays excited at 12 VDC, and 1.4 mA steady and 48 mA with two relays excited at 24 VDC.
When standby current is important for a solar or battery-powered system, verify the physical receiver revision and applicable current specification. Transmitter Solutions separately lists RECTS433-LC as its low-consumption solar configuration, so do not automatically apply LC power figures to RECTSMINI2OUT.
IP65 Exterior-Rated Housing
The RECTSMINI2OUT manual and current Mini Outdoor receiver specifications identify an IP65 housing protection rating. The manufacturer states that this housing allows external installations.
Install the enclosure correctly and maintain the cover, cable openings, caps, and mounting hardware. Exterior rated does not mean the receiver should be installed in standing water, a flood-prone location, or with damaged or unsealed cable entries.
Antenna and Receiver Range
The current HIVE Mini Outdoor receiver page lists a whip antenna as included and a coax antenna as optional. The RECTSMINI2OUT manual also provides separate antenna pole and antenna ground terminals for a 433 MHz coax antenna installation.
- Terminal 14 - Antenna pole or inner conductor.
- Terminal 15 - Antenna ground or coax shield.
The current manufacturer page publishes a receiver range of up to 1200 feet. Actual range can vary because of transmitter condition, antenna placement, metal structures, receiver location, radio emissions, electrical equipment, and site interference.
Similar HIVE Receivers Are Not Automatically Interchangeable
- RECTSMINI4OUT: The 4-channel Mini Outdoor configuration provides four receiver relays and a different output layout. It should not be treated as the same 2-channel receiver.
- RECTS433-LC: Transmitter Solutions separately identifies this as the low-consumption version for solar applications. Do not assume RECTSMINI2OUT has identical standby current.
- RECTSNANO433: The Nano receiver is a compact 1-channel, 85-user receiver with an IP2X housing. It is not a 2-channel exterior replacement.
- 433 MHz interior receiver: Transmitter Solutions separately publishes a 2-channel interior receiver family. An interior housing should not be substituted when an IP65 enclosure is required.
- HIVE433DIP: This is a separate 433 MHz DIP-switch receiver system. Matching nominal frequency does not make DIP-switch transmitters compatible with RECTSMINI2OUT rolling-code operation.

Installation and Service Notes
The RECTSMINI2OUT uses the P1 learn button and DL3 and DL4 LEDs for transmitter programming. The manufacturer manual documents button A programming for the first relay and button B programming for the second relay.
When replacing a receiver because of short transmitter range, inspect the antenna, receiver position, nearby metal, large magnetic fields, electronic equipment, and radio interference before assuming the receiver circuit has failed.
Complete memory erasure removes all stored transmitters. Do not erase the receiver memory when active users must remain programmed unless the complete remote inventory and reprogramming plan are available.
Do not bypass photo eyes, monitored safety edges, entrapment protection, emergency access, fire access, garage door safety sensors, reversal systems, wall-control safety functions, or operator safety circuits while installing or troubleshooting this receiver.
Professional Advisory
If the transmitter coding family, relay wiring, NO or NC requirement, control voltage, antenna connection, or receiver revision cannot be positively identified, have a qualified gate, garage, low-voltage, or access control technician inspect the system. Unknown mains-voltage or high-current loads should be reviewed by a qualified electrical technician rather than switched directly through the receiver.
Product Questions and Answers
Is RECTSMINI2OUT the 2-channel version of the HIVE Mini Outdoor receiver?
Yes. The current Transmitter Solutions Mini Outdoor family page lists 2-channel and 4-channel versions, and the official 2-relay manual specifically identifies part number RECTSMINI2OUT as the MINI 2 OUT receiver.
Which transmitters are specifically documented for RECTSMINI2OUT?
The official 2-relay receiver manual lists Stingray 433TSPW1V and 433TSPW2V plus legacy Monarch 433TSPW1K and 433TSPW2K references. The current Monarch catalog uses -C suffix part numbers, so confirm the exact current transmitter replacement before ordering.
Can any 433 MHz remote be programmed to RECTSMINI2OUT?
No. RECTSMINI2OUT is documented as a 433.92 MHz KeeLoq Hopping Code rolling-code receiver. Matching the 433 MHz frequency alone does not prove compatibility with DIP-switch, fixed-code, or another rolling-code transmitter family.
Do both RECTSMINI2OUT relay channels have Normally Closed contacts?
No. The official manual documents Relay K3 with Common and Normally Open contacts. Relay K4 provides Common, Normally Open, and Normally Closed contacts.
Can both RECTSMINI2OUT relay channels be set for latching operation?
The official manual specifically documents momentary or latch selection for Relay K4 using jumper JP1. It does not document the same jumper-selectable latch function for Relay K3, so do not assume both outputs have identical operating modes.
How many remotes can RECTSMINI2OUT store?
The current manufacturer page lists push-to-learn programming for up to 85 remotes and 85 user-code memory. The official RECTSMINI2OUT manual identifies the receiver as full when 85 transmitters are already stored.
Why do the RECTSMINI2OUT current consumption specifications differ between manufacturer documents?
The current product page and official 2-relay manual publish different standby and energized current figures. When receiver power draw matters for a solar or battery installation, verify the physical hardware revision and applicable current specification before calculating the system power budget.
What is included with the RECTSMINI2OUT receiver?
The official manual lists the electronics box, cover, screws, rubber caps, antenna, antenna nut, and mounting screws with plugs. The current product page lists a whip antenna as included and a coax antenna as optional. A handheld transmitter and separate power supply are not identified as included.
