    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Hi Pete Thanks for the reply I connected my doorbell directly to the 24v (40va) transformer and it lit up and worked as it should (I was able to access the doorbell from the Ezviz app on my phone) when I tried integrating the relay back into it, the same thing happens, the speaker keeps...

    ...that there are no dependencies of the DB to the M&S system. Wire the doorbell with PS and configure the EZViz app to work as an electronic chime with no connection to anything but the power supply for the Video Doorbell. Test it to make sure it works. Here tested the Video Doorbell and...

    Hi So I have an original doorbell at the front door, and when pressed, the intercom speaker makes a chime noise (ding dong). I assume this is electronic as ther eis no mechanical things that move. I tried looking for a schematic but to no avail (perhaps too old)? I didn't know, but I ended...

    I would like to get this working on EZVIZ DB1, but can't find EZVIZ firmware 200321, I can only see 200220 or 211011 as latest firmware. Also it looks like you've got EZVIZ firmware working with ONVIF, although page 101 states that EZVIZ firmware does not support ONVIF functionality. Can you...

    ...installed a Hikvision DS-HD1 and will get random and persistent ringing on my chime. As in no one is pushing the button, it isn't stuck, and will chime 20x times out of the blue. I have an electronic chime with the power kit installed per previous recommendations on this thread. Thoughts?

    I would configure it as an electronic chime. Here only utilize the app when I initially configured the video doorbell. They unregistered the Doorbell from the app and removed the app.

    Unfortunately, I don't have one available so I am not able to try that. Does it matter which chime type I select in the app? I tried electronic and mechanical and didn't notice any differences.

    Considering a slightly more powerful transformer to avoid the buzzing I'm currently getting (it's like we've got a neon light fitted). Anybody think this one would be appropriate: Robus Electronic Transformer 35-105VA It seems to be 12V way more current. Its designed for light fittings but...

    Ok so I tested this myself, runs fine on 9VDC 1A, drawing about 0.4A without IR but mechanical chime doesn't work, I think the triac much be looking for zero crossing to release, when I hit the button it pulls it down to like 5V and goes into current limiting mode (1A) and stays there. I...

    There are some Digital/Electronic Chimes that are not compatible with this Doorbell. Of course we do not have a list of those, we did include the list from the Hikvision Data Sheet on our 101: Keep in mind since this list is old I am sure there are other models that do work that are not on this...

    Didn't miss it, it meant you knew it was a jerkie post. I was just underlining it. :) in EZVIZ documentation it is clearly stated that IF you use a traditional chime you MUST use the powerkit. It's not a choice. And this is confirmed by many people on the field, including me. Yours works...

    Sorry, I should've been more clear - I have the Guarding Vision app installed and verified that the chime type is set to mechanical. Despite this, the chime still doesn't ring. I really think there's an issue with my doorbell since if I disconnect the DB1 and short the doorbell wires, the chime...

    You did read the 101 and the recent posts about the fact that sometimes the DB1 resets the chime option to disabled in its settings, right? Unfortunately in latest ezviz mobile app you can access the options only during setup, once it's setup you can't configure (enable/disable/select chime...

    Yeah, every time I removed the doorbell from the app or factory reset it, I selected mechanical chime on the setup page. The issue I'm seeing is when you press the doorbell button, the doorbell itself plays the chime noise (that is enabled in the app), but the chime indoors does not ring. The...

    Nope, I actually downgraded my chime from an electronic chime to a mechanical one (the absolutely cheapest one I could find) when I changed my doorbell just to simplify things. Can you describe your problem and what chime you are using? I suppose you also already setup the the doorbell to...

    Question- I have the Ezviz DB1 with Hikvision firmware and iOS app. I have an electronic chime that I would like to be able to toggle on/off.

    Hi: I don't deal with Ezviz any more. I called them last week concerning the chime for the DB1 and they didn't even know what I was talking about, even after giving them their OWN WEBPAGE on the chime. I can't comprehend such incompetence so I'd rather not. Besides, the other poster tried that...
