Curious - ringing like normal doorbell. Have wireless now, has "button" unit & "chime" unit. Can this be used like that or has to have phone?

You have to have a phone or something that can receive the wi-fi signal to hear the "ring". The doorbot itself has a speaker, so if you're close to the door you may hear it, but it does not have a separate "bell".

I think it can be con neglected to an existing wired system. Not sure about wireless. Do not buy this model. Very buggy. If you buy, get newer version

you can connect to the 12v door bell power but wait, don't buy it. As soon as I took it outside to check to be sure it was getting the WiFi it stopped working. so I took it to another one of my houses and the same thing. Works great inside the house and that's where it ends.

I have a 1000 sq ft house and I can clearly hear it throughout the house, even when interior doors are shut. I can not hear it outside the house though, I'll probably need to add another speaker for outside. Its a cool doorbell though, its great to see guests reactions when they press the button and the doorbell "moo's" :)

Not a clue our chimes are wired in ... Sorry I wish I knew the answer ... but the doorbell is beautiful!

This ties into a wired doorbell. It adds a remote speaker that rings the same time a wired bell chimes.

Yes, I bought two units..one for the main floor and one for the 2nd floor of my house. You program the new bell the same way with the bell buttons. I am considering buying a third set for the basement also. Al

The remote button is similar to a battery powered doorbell buzzer. It can be mounted anywhere. The receiving unit is mounted with the Metlund D'Mand pump. However be aware that it does not go a great distance an brick walls seem to block the signal getting through. In my case the remote button worked everywhere in the house except in the guest bathroom that I purchased it for.

The doorbell button is designed for exterior use. The doorbell chimes are for interior use.

There are two buttons on the side of the doorbell. Just press these buttons to cycle through the ringtones.

I can't answer that question. I do know that the two push buttons that come with the unit have different signals so be careful when installing. One sends a signal for the front door which is the chime. The other button sends a signal for the back door or other location and is the typical door bell (ding/dong). I would assume the buttons are unique to the unit. Sorry I wasn't much help.

Yes, I have it installed in an older home which had 3 separate door push buttons, I used the existing wiring and each door has a different chime tone. There are plenty of different tones to chose from for each push button and they can be changed later if you want.

There are two components, a transmitter that connects to the doorbell and a receiver that plugs into a 110 V ac outlet. The latter has the speaker that makes the sound. We have one transmitter and two receivers, and I see no reason why you couldn't add more receivers, although as far as I know, you can't purchase them separately. In our case, we ended up with a spare transmitter. You can select one of several chimes at the transmitter, and all receivers make the same sound.

The unit does have a button on the front, so yes, it would work both ways in that respect. However, there would be a couple of issues if used for both. 1.) The same chime would have to be used for both occurrences 2.) The unit is not waterproof, and shouldn't be used outdoors and 3) If you put this near a door, I don't think guests would necessarily think its a door bell. Hope this helps.

I'm sorry, I don't know that answer. I am using it as is, out of the box. It is the best doorbell I've ever owned.

My house is old with wired front and back doorbell buttons. This unit works fine when wired to existing doorbell system.Frank

I'm confused by the question - to me, the doorbell is the receiver (i.e. the pictured device that has the chime in it), and the doorbell button (doorbell push) is the transmitter. You can certainly connect multiple transmitters to the bell unit. I have not tried it, but I can't think of any reason why each doorbell button couldn't be picked up by more than one chime unit - the programming procedure implies that the chime learns the identity of the bell push (or other transmitter device), not that they are tied to one another in a 1-to-1 relationship.

No... very easy to use and set up. Not sure about your question about the plug head? It is a wireless system. Put batteries in it, select ring tone, and hang on your wall. Then take doorbell and mount it at your door. Done.

There's a choice of sound button on the chime box, (but I don't think there are chimes, only songs, which is fine with me), plus also a volume control button. It's as easy as pie. I have my ringer on the mailbox next to the door and everybody uses it.
