Diagram 3.
STEP 2. INSTALLING
THE TRANSMITTER TO
THE DOOR
Before drilling any holes position the
transmitter on the door or door frame
outside (ideally a flat wooden area)
and press the button to ensure the
signals are getting through to the
receiver. Please test with the door
closed to simulate actual working
conditions. You should also look to
position the transmitter in an
unexposed place to protect from rain.
The range of the unit is up to 100
metres but mounting the transmitter
on metal or UPVC doorframes may
make the unit inoperative or seriously
reduce the operating range.
As with all low powered transmitters
the number of walls and ceilings the
signal has to travel through, between
the transmitter and receiver also
affects the range.
Once a suitable surface is found
remove the transmitter base following 1a).Use this as a template to fix
the base on to a doorframe. Ensure
the transmitter is the right way up so
that the slot is at the bottom.
If mounting on to masonry, wall fixings
will be required. Refit unit to the base.
IMPORTANT : The screws must be
fixed flush or the battery will not
maintain contact with the terminals
and the unit will not operate.
Skip to section 5 unless you wish
to change the factory set tune,
volume or house codes.
1 b) RECEIVER
The battery compartment is located
on the base.
Remove cover gently by pushing and
releasing the two tabs.
Insert three batteries, ensuring the
correct polarity so that the negative
end is always resting on the spring
and the positive end on the flat metal
plate.
The first battery goes in the lower
compartment with the negative end
against the spring.
The other two are inserted as shown
in diagram 4. above.
Replace battery cover carefully.
Press the button on the transmitter
STEP 3. TUNE SELECTION &
VOLUME CONTROL
(FLASHING LIGHT ONLY AVAILABLE

above leaving the battery in and
select tune as shown in Diagram 3.
Press the push button to hear the
sound each different setting produces.
Once a desired tune is selected,
Carefully replace transmitter. Up to 3

VOLUME CONTROL
4 levels of volume can be set, see
Diagram 5. Repeatedly pushing the
volume switch will cycle through the 4
levels of volumes available.
FLASHING LIGHT
(DW050A & DW051A)
A bright xenon light will flash and
accompany the tune. This feature is
particularly useful for the hard of
hearing or when using the chime in a
noisy environment. The volume can
be muted following the instructions
above.
If you have the model DW040A
Ambassador Kit but would like the
flashing light feature, you can
purchase the GreenBrook model
‘DW051A Beacon Receiver’ seperately.
This can be used on it’s own or as an
additional receiver.
See Diagram 5. for the sound/flashing
light options.
The unit comes with factory set code.
Only change it if you experience
interference from a neighbour’s unit.
Remove cover transmitter from base
as in 1a) leaving the batteries in
position. Set the dial as in Diag.3. to
required number i.e “6”, set this
number “6” on the corresponding dial
on the reciever.
Press push button on the transmitter
to check that the chime works and
carefully replace transmitter as above.
Test your doorchime by moving the
receiver in different rooms and at
varying distances from the
transmitter to ascertain the coverage
available in your home, this way you
are unlikely to miss any visitors. If
preferred, the receiver can be hung
on a wall using the keyhole slot at
the back.
Fault : Chime does not sound
Cause :
• Check batteries are not flat and
they have been inserted the correct
way round. Do not mix different
types of batteries.
• Re-check the dials and switches in
the transmitter and reciever if the
house codes have been amended.
• Move the receiver nearer the
transmitter.
• Re-check the volume control
