Code and Tune Settings

Note: Most installations will not require you to change any code set­tings on your chime and push button.

WARNING: Turn off power supply at junction box whenever chime is
removed from wall.

The push button and chime communicate by using a code that can be changed
by changing dip switch positions or removing and/or adding jumpers on both
the push button and chime. The code is factory set; however, there are 128
selectable codes that allow you to expand your system and prevent outside
interference. Other wireless products may cause interference and the sys­tem may not function properly. Follow the instructions below for setting a
new code.

1. Turn off power supply at junction box.

2. Remove chime from wall.

3. Open the push button case and locate dip switches/jumpers in push but­ton and on rear of chime.

4. The push button has eight dip switches/jumpers and the chime has seven
dip switches/jumpers. Dip switch/jumper positions 1 through 7 are used
for setting the code.

5. To change the code, change dip switch positions or add and/or remove
jumpers as needed. It is recommended to only change one code position
at a time and then check to see if system is functioning properly. Note:
Code positions 1 through 7 must be exactly the same for both the push
button and chime for this system to function.

Note: Unit will come factory set with dip switch locations 5, 6, and 7 in the
“ON” position and/or jumpers in locations 5, 6, and 7 (see Figure 4).

Note: Some models might require the use of
tweezers to remove and replace the jumpers
or a small screwdriver to set dip switches.

Troubleshooting

Chime does not sound:

• Make sure push button and chime codes are the same (See pages 2 and 3).

• Check orientation of push button and chime batteries (if applicable) (See
page 3).

• Check charge of push button and chime batteries (if applicable), replace if
necessary.

• Check AC power to chime.

Batteries seem OK, but the chime does not work when installed:

• Do not mount chime or push button on metal or near metal studs. This
reduces the transmitter range. Use 1/4" to 1/2" (6 to 13 mm) wood shims
to move chime or push button off metal surface.

• Concrete floors may reduce range. Move chime away from floor.

•Try locating chime closer to push button.

The range of the wireless chime can vary with location, temperature, and
battery condition.
