Hardwired Mechanical Chimes
Illustrations may vary from actual chime unit.
MOUNTING SUGGESTIONS
•Power must be supplied from a 16 Volt, 10 Watt transformer or 16 Volt, 15 Watt transformer (Heath®/Zenith models 122C, 121AC, or 125C).
•Mount door chime in a central location so it can be heard throughout the home.
•See actual unit for orientation of base.
•Use wall anchors if not mounting directly to wall stud.
•Use mounting holes located on both sides of base.
•Route wires through wire entrance holes (see Figure 1).
NEW INSTALLATION WIRING WARNING:Turn power off at fuse or circuit breaker before installing transformer. Follow all national and local codes.
1.MountTransformer: Transformers should be mounted on or near a junction box. They can also be mounted to the electrical service panels. Junction boxes in utility rooms, crawl spaces, or basements are preferred. Avoid attic locations.
2.Install 16 Volt, 10 Watt transformer according to the instructions supplied with transformer. Note: For multiple mechanical chimes, use a 16 Volt, 15 Watt transformer. Failure to use a transformer with adequate power will result in loss of sound or may result in the system being inoperative.
3.Run two No. 20 AWG or better bell wires (Heath®/Zenith No. 196C or No. 199C accessory wire) to the chime location. Strip away 1/2" of insulation from end of wires. Connect each wire to transformer (see Figure 1).

5.Mount push button(s) to door frame(s). Run two No. 20 AWG bell wires from push button(s) to the chime location. Strip away 1/2" of insulation from end of wires. Connect each wire to push button(s) (see Figure 1).
Label Front Push Button Wires: Using masking tape or wire tags provided on packaging, label one wire “F” and the other “C”.
Label Rear Push Button Wires: Using masking tape or wire tags provided on packaging, label one wire “R” and the other “C”.
6.At the chime, pull all wires through wall cavity and out through a 1/2" hole in the wall board. Route wires through wire entrance hole(s).
7.Mount chime base to wall using screws provided.
8.Strip away 1/2" of insulation from end of wires. Connect wire “F” to the screw terminal marked “FRONT”. Connect wire “T” to screw terminal marked “TRANS”. Connect wire “R” to screw terminal marked “REAR” (see Figure 1).
9.Twist together the wires labeled “C” and secure them with a UL approved wire nut.
10.Place chime cover securely over base.
11.Restore power. Press push button(s) to test chime.
REPLACEMENT INSTALLATION WIRING
For replacing an existing transformer, follow step 2 above.
WARNING: Turn power off at fuse or circuit breaker before installing transformer.
1.Verify existing chime/bell system works correctly. If no sound is heard, see Troubleshooting section for more information.
2.Check transformer power rating. This chime requires a minimum 16 Volt, 10 Watt transformer.
3.Remove cover from existing chime and disconnect wires from terminal screws. Using masking tape or wire tags provided on packaging, label all wires (“F”-Front Push Button, “T”-Transformer, “R”-Rear Push Button) as you remove them according to terminal markings.
4.Remove existing chime base from wall.
5.Route wires through wire entrance hole(s) in new chime base.
6.Mount chime base to wall using screws provided.
7.Connect wire “F” to the screw terminal marked “FRONT”. Connect wire “T” to screw terminal marked “TRANS”. Connect wire “R” to screw terminal marked “REAR” (see Figure 1). Note: The common connection may exist elsewhere in the original installation and may not be visible.
8.Place chime cover securely over base.
9.Restore power. Press push button(s) to test chime.
Note: For multiple mechanical chimes, use a 16 Volt, 15 Watt transformer.
HELPFUL HINTS
•Electrical work must be in accordance with national and local electrical codes. If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Turn power off at fuse or circuit breaker before installing/ replacing transformer.
•Many chimes, bells, and buzzers are installed with a 10 Volt, 5 Watt transformer. This chime requires a minimum 16 Volt, 10 Watt transformer.
•For replacement installation, identify and tag wires before removing them according to terminal markings: “F”-Front Push Button, “R”-Rear Push Button, and “T”-Transformer.
•For new installations install #20 AWG bell wire in pairs from push button(s) and transformer to chime. Do not pinch wire or damage its insulation. Heath®/Zenith accessory wire (No. 196C or No. 199C) is available for chime installations.
•Clean wood, plastic, and metal parts with mild soap and warm water. Never use cleaners or polishes. Never use any fluids on the mechanical chime mechanism.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Chime does not sound:
•Check Chime: Disconnect wire from terminal marked “TRANS”. Have someone operate push button at front door while you momentarily touch the “TRANS” wire to terminal marked “FRONT”. You will see a small spark if push button, wiring, and transformer are operating properly. Repeat the steps for “REAR” terminal and rear push button. If wiring between transformer and push button(s) check out properly, replace chime.
•Check Transformer: Momentarily touch the two low-voltage terminals with a screwdriver. You will see a small spark if transformer is operating properly. If no spark is evident, replace transformer.
•Check Push Button(s): Remove suspected unit from door frame, disconnect wire from terminals and touch bare wires together. If chime operates, push button is defective. Replace push button.
