Operation

• Insert batteries (not incl.) into the doorbell (see §8) or connect a 4.5VDC adaptor (not incl.) to the 4.5VDC input jack [1].

• Open the doorbell push buttons by pushing gently with a small screwdriver in the gap at the bottom of the casing (see arrow) and removing the back cover.

• Insert the batteries into the doorbell push buttons (see §8).

• Verify that the settings of the DIP switches of the doorbell [4] and doorbell push buttons [D] are the same. These DIP-switches set the encoding of the transmitted signal. When interference ith similar devices in the neighbourhood is noticed, change the  DIP-switch setting, but make sure that the same setting is selected on doorbell and doorbell push-buttons.

• Both doorbell push buttons can have their own melody setting. Set the melody jumper [C] to the desired melody:
  1 für Elise 2 Westminster 3 ding-dong

• Close the DIP switch cover [4] of the doorbell. Secure the screw.

• Mount or place the doorbell push buttons in the desired locations and close the doorbell push buttons. Protect them from harsh weather conditions to prolong their life time. Make sure push buttons are not surrounded by metal or near a strong magnetic field.

• Mount or place the doorbell itself in the desired location (indoors only). Make sure the doorbell is not surrounded by metal or near a strong magnetic field.

• A push on the doorbell button will produce the chosen melody for that button through the speaker [2] of the doorbell, while the status LED [3] is lit.

Troubleshooting

• When sound becomes weak, replace the batteries of the doorbell (see §8).
• When pushing a push button does not produce a chime:
• verify whether the DIP switch settings on doorbell and doorbell push buttons are identical. Set the same setting on doorbell and doorbell push buttons.
• verify whether the push button is located within the specified range (max. 60m). If not, bring it closer to the doorbell.
• verify whether doorbell and doorbell push buttons are not surrounded by metal or near a strong magnetic field. In these cases, move the push button or doorbell to a suitable location.
