“Attn Ring: You have 3 names for models, this one=Ring *Battery* Doorbell, but you said it can also be hard-wired. Correct? If hard-wired into existing doorbell, will existing chime be automatically audible in home, not just in phone? (no Alexa here)”

Hi zinya. Thank you for taking the time to ask this question. Yes, the Ring Battery Doorbell has a built-in, rechargeable battery. It can also be hardwired to an existing doorbell system or transformer for continuous charging (8-24 VAC, 40VA max, 50/60Hz). To adjust your chime settings in the Ring app: Open the Ring app to the main dashboard. Tap more (•••) on the camera you want to access. Tap your device's Settings. Tap Device Settings. Tap In-home Chime Settings. Navigate to In-home Chime Settings in your Ring app. Tap Automatic Chime Detection. Allow the app to detect the in-home chime, then confirm your doorbell is wired to a chime if prompted. Tap Ring my In-home Chime to hear your in-home chime ring when the doorbell is pressed. Follow the in-app instructions and push the button on your Ring doorbell. If it does not ring correctly, select either My chime rang partially or My chime didn’t ring. The Ring app will adjust the device settings automatically and prompt you to test your doorbell again. If the app is unable to detect an in-home chime, it will redirect to the start of the automatic chime detection process.
