Product Overview

The Chime is a companion product to the SkyBell video doorbell. The Chime connects via Wi-Fi to the home’s router and receives notifications from the doorbell on the same wireless network. The Chime has a built-in speaker that will notify the user of a doorbell button push or motion activity detected by the doorbell. The Chime can then be placed at a location within the home that can alert the user to these activities in cases where the traditional wall mounted mechanical doorbell is out of audible range.
Various notification tones can be selected by using the SkyBell Mobile App. The volume of the tones can be adjusted through the App as well. The SkyBell logo on the front face of the Chime is illuminated by multi-color LEDs. The LED color is user defined through the App. A custom color can be selected to indicate a doorbell push and a motion detection.
