Thanks, Appreciated.

Does anybody know what the distance is of the mountings holes off this doorbell or where I can find this information? TIA

A good place to start reading is here: New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

According to this site the DB2 uses a 6400 mAh Li battery or can be fed with 8-24 VAC but has only 2.4 GHz wifi (which doesn't have to be a problem). https://www.mwave.com.au/product/ezviz-db2-wirefree-smart-video-doorbell-ac23637 I wonder how long that battery will last. According to the site...

Don't be sorry. I've got my DB1 working as intended, and that good enough for me. Sure, experimenting mostly results in trouble but that how we learn and keeps us busy ;) .

What the problem exactly was i'm not sure. The app recognized the DB1. It ran through the setup but did not add it to hik-connect. I repeated this procedure several times. I had a simular problem with a hikvision camera on hik-connect. To make that work Hikvision support had to do something on...

BTW thanks to everyone who helped solving this.

Thanks for pointing me in the direction of the SSIDs. This made definatly a difference. Unfortunalty i did not succeed in adding the DB1in the hik-connect app. As a last resort i added the DB1 back in the Ezviz app. During the adding process the question is ask what chime type is used. Behold...

Changing parameters via the BC is my preferred way. But the parameter to change the chime type isn't available in the BC. That's the whole point of using hik-connect or Guardian vision app. As other users pointed out in these apps this parameter should be available.

This is what i see in the main screen. Clicking on the three dots shows me this:

I flashed the hikvision firmware and gave a reset (via BC and inside the config). Adding via the QR code still doesn't work. Added the DB1 via manual adding". This worked, i can see the camera feed. But where can i find the settings of the doorbell? I noticed the hik-connect app is dated may 06...

OK, i deleted the DB1 from the Ezviz app. and installed the hik-connect app. After adding the DB1 via the QR code it says "the device model is not supported". I did the same with the Guardian vision app.. It says "Operation failed (102030)". I'm getting annoyed by this. :mad:

What Hikvision app exactly do you use? Searching on "Hikvision" gives me about a dozen apps in the play store.

@Emiks5 @phatboyj Good call, i will try Guarding vision and see if its a matter of changing the chime selection.

The DB1 and the relay that activates my doorbell is hookup to the 12 VAC. Which has always worked fine. I think they removed the chime type selection a few version of the (Ezviz) app ago. What's suspisious is that the Ezviz app just recently got updated (V4.3.1.0424). Below are the options...
