I am not familiar with the RHH135, but the setup instructions should
have come with it.  If not, go here:
http://www.yamaha.co.jp/manual/english/ and type RHH into the search
and download the manual for the RHH.  It explains how to set up the
hihat.  I am not sure about the module, but I know the DTXpress III
module was not shipped with the correct setup for the RHH even if you
bought the "special" version.  You may need to go to the trigger setup
edit (page 36 of the DTXpress IV manual onwards)and make  sure that
the hihat is set up as RHH.
