Mounting your Smart Doorbell
Smart Doorbell
Quick Start Guide
You will need a strong
2.4GHz WPA/WPA2 WiFi network
connection near your doorbell.
Make sure that your package includes a smart doorbell, 6
screws and anchors for mounting.
Make sure that your existing doorbell wiring is connected to
a mechanical doorbell chime and a transformer with a low-
voltage of 10VAC-36VAC.
Befor you begin:
Warning!
Do not attach the smart doorbell directly to a
primary power source (110/120 VAC and 220/230/240 VAC).
The smart doorbell was designed to seamlessly replace a pre-existing doorbell
button with a mechanical doorbell chime. If you do not have a mechanical
doorbell, you must attach a 20 ohm/10 watt resistor (not included) between the
smart doorbell and one wire from the power source. Failing to do so will cause
permanent damage to your smart doorbell and your warranty will be voided.
IMPORTANT!
Before you begin, make sure that the power to
your doorbell is turned off. Check your circuit breaker for a
switch.
Remove your existing doorbell button.
Once you’ve removed
your old doorbell, make sure that the two wires used to
connect your doorbell button remain exposed.
1
Remove the mounting bracket from your Smart Doorbell.
Loosen the two screws on the bottom of the doorbell and
slide down to remove the mounting bracket as shown:
2
Mark and drill the appropriate holes in the wall for the
mounting bracket.
Line the bracket against the wall where
you would like to install your doorbell. Using the bracket as
a guide (try using a level to make sure that the bracket is
properly aligned), mark the wall with the six corresponding
holes for the screws. Remove the mounting bracket and
drill six holes slightly smaller than the wall anchors.
Note:
Use the provided screws with anchors when mounting on brick,
concrete, or stucco. When mounting on wood or vinyl, you may use the
screws directly without anchors.
3
Fasten the mounting bracket onto the wall and connect the
wires to the wire terminals.
Tap the wall anchors with a
hammer until the anchors are flush against the wall. Using
a Philips screwdriver and the provided screws, fasten the
bracket into place. Make sure that the two wires from Step
1 are fed through the opening and exposed.
4
Once the bracket is secure, fasten the two wires to the
terminals on the bracket. Ensure that each wire is making
contact with the metal plating of each terminal. You can
fasten either wire to either terminal, but make sure that the
wires are not touching each other. (image shown on next
page).
