(The default chime which DBC831v2 support is analog type; the customers are required to
develop this feature on the App)
If your existing doorbell produces an electronic sound that is programmable and comes in
the form of a unique sound, it's a digital chime. If it has a traditional "ding dong" sound,
it's a compatible analog chime.
4. Complete the pairing process and unplug the Micro USB cable from the Doorbell
Camera.

Chapter 3
Hardware Installation
This chapter covers the most likely problems and their solutions.
Overview
Note: Ensure the camera is configured and enrolled in AP or router before permanently
mounting.
Note: If DBC831v2 is using for engineering develop purpose, it is available to use Mirco USB
cable to charge the battery for replacing the transformer. And doorbell does not require
attaching with the chimer.
Note: For DBC831v2 installation, doorbell must be attached with indoor chimer and
transformer use for power supply loop. (While mounting regular bracket, it must use 8-24V
transformer to power up doorbell; while mounting Always on bracket, it must use 16-24V
transformer to power up doorbell)
1. Check the voltage at the chimer to ensure voltage is between 8 ~ 24V AC(for mounting
2. Turn off the breaker circuit before disconnecting legacy doorbell button.
3. Unscrew the legacy doorbell to locate two power wires. (The recommended installation
Always on bracket, the voltage should be 16~24V).
height is between 47 -60 inches.)
10
4. Choose either the Always On bracket or the regular mounting bracket that will cover the
hole of the legacy doorbell button.
Please check Always On Bracket Installation section for more details
5. Connect the power wires from the existing doorbell to the screw terminals of the bracket.
6. Secure the bracket with screws.
Note: Install the anchors if necessary. The provided lever can be used for measuring
angles to prevent inclination.
7. Attach the doorbell camera to the mounting bracket. Make sure the doorbell camera is
firmly fixed and working properly.
Caution: To avoid damaging the rubber seal of the pogo pins, please attach the camera to
the mounting bracket flush. Mounting bracket should lay flat against the wall. Over
torqueing can warp the bracket and cause it to lose contact with pins.
11
8. Turn on the breaker circuit.
9. Check that the chime is working normally by pushing the doorbell button. If the AC wires
are not connected properly, the LED will blink amber every 5 seconds.
12
Power Kit Installation
The Power Kit included with the doorbell camera is a small device, which support Doorbell
with any kinds of analog and digital chime usage by going between the doorbell transformers
and chime wiring.
Note: Before removing or attaching wires to your original bell, be sure that the power is turned
off at the breaker box. Consult a licensed electrician if needed.
1. Turn off the circuit breaker for the indoor chimer.
2. Remove the cover from the indoor chimer.
3. Loosen the "Front" and "Trans" terminal screws on the indoor chimer.
4. Connect white wire from the Power Kit to the “Front” terminal, and the black wire to the
“Trans” terminal, leaving the existing doorbell wires in place. Then, re-tighten the screws.
5. Position the Power Kit inside your indoor chimer, away from any moving parts. Use the
adhesive (foam tap) on the back of the Power Kit to fix it in place, if desired.
6. Attach the cover back to the indoor chimer, and turn the power on at the breaker.
13
Always On Bracket Installation (Optional)
The Always On bracket (may not included in the package) can only be installed with
mechanical doorbell chimes (AC16V~24V). In this configuration, the doorbell camera will be
in always on mode, which brings back the 5 second pre-buffer, connects live view faster, and
removes the need for the internal battery to be charged.
1. Use the always on bracket that will cover the hole of the legacy doorbell button.
2. Connect the power wires from the existing doorbell to the screw terminals of the bracket.
3. Secure the bracket with screws.
