ILoveC4 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 I’ve got to put my DS2 Mini in today and I’m wondering which terminal I connect the doorbell wires to? It isn’t clear to me, and I need to do it in the next few hours. I’ve got a powered doorbell chime that would work with any regular old doorbell. It’s got a 2 conductor wire in addition to the CAT5e and CAT6 that go to the rack. I’ll put the CAT6 in the LAN port... just need to know how to wire the doorbell. Thanks in advance.

So in the back there’s a relay, an in, an out... there a number of connections. The doorbell wire doesn’t go back to the rack...it goes to the wall mounted chime.

Do I have that right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveC4 Posted September 30, 2019 Author Share Posted September 30, 2019 I guess I’m realizing I will just program off of a button pressed event to toggle that relay? For some reason I was assuming it had connections for a regular doorbell that was automatically toggle upon button press (like Ring).

It's a regular relay, and you program it to toggle off the button press. THANK YOU! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
