Chime
Chime
Device that produces a sound-effect when triggered, such as entering or exiting a door.
There is a chime noise that the Doorbell camera will play out of the speaker on the bottom, but there is no official Google/ADT chimebox that we install.
Common Issues:
January 2025 update: We now have a Limited supply of google mini-speakers that the cx can purchase for $80
We no longer offer the GoogleHub (only a handful left)
We no longer offer Wi-fi Routers
Issue: Low/Poor Chime?
Cause: Not getting enough power, eventually the whole thing will die
Solution:
Hire electrician or Purchase Google home mini (or other 3rd party vendor alternative)
Issue: Hum/Buzz noise?
Cause: Wire is cross-wired or the transformer is about to go out
Solution:
This is outside of our responsibility and they need to get an electrician involved
Issue: Phantom or Ghost Chime?
Cause: Not getting enough power, power may be fluctuating
Solution:
Hire electrician or Purchase Google home mini (or other 3rd party vendor alternative)
Issue: Nonstop Ring?
Cause: Could be cross wired or could be a power fluctuation
Solution:
Hire electrician or Purchase Google home mini (or other 3rd party vendor alternative)
Issue: Major Delay? (10-15 seconds is a normal amount to wait, any longer is excessive)
Cause: Could be power, could be too much bandwidth traffic, could be attenuation
Solution:
Reboot but it could also still be a power issue, therefore Hire electrician or Purchase Google home mini (or other 3rd party vendor alternative)
Issue: Custom sound?
Cause: There is no custom sound for the Mini+Doorbell The nest app use to feature different ringtones, however google is slowly phasing out the nest app and those options are no longer available.
Solution:
They just have the one chine unless they want to get a custom doorbell
