I had a play around with my doorbell today and have it working lovely off my 24vac cctv psu using the supplied resistor. I still have no clue how to incorporate a mechanical chime into this circuit.
I have an old mechanical chime which i have been using as a tester. Putting 24vac to the chime...
Im having mine delivered tomorrow and also need to connect to a mechanical chime. Im going to have a good play around with it , when i suss it out i will let you know how i managed it....hopefully.
With there being only 2 wires connected to the Hikvision doorbell, how does this operate the chime as i should imagine the doorbell requires a continuous 24v.
Hope i dont sound thick here... Surely the chime would constantly chime?
