Re: AD410 Adding a compatible chime UK

The wiring is exactly the same as in the image linked below which is for a ring doorbell but it's the same wiring. Where it shows the "PRO POWER KIT" in the diagram you need to wire in the Amcrest Chime Kit that came with the AD410. This is important as it limits the current flowing throug...

Thanks again Revo2Max. That's exactly why I went for the AD410 myself :)

Re: Amcrest AD410 Doorbell Problems

Same question. Did you get anywhere with this?
I have the same problems. In fact I haven't even got it to announce the doorbell ringing.
Could you share how you got that bit working?

Re: ECHO Dot and AD410 Chime question

@McchuckinPA
Did you get this working?
I have a few dots and a show I'd like to get working with my AD410, even if just to play the chime when the doorbell is pressed but even better if the show can also display the camera feed as well.
@ExtremeSkiBum
Care to share how you did this please?

Re: AD410 Adding a compatible chime UK

It's OK. I have gone for an open frame transformer and an enclosure to make my own.

Re: AD410 Adding a compatible chime UK

Hmmm, one more problem. All the 16V/30-40VA trabsformers I can find are 120V primary. I need UK 240V.
Anyone know of a source for a 240V one please?

Re: AD410 Adding a compatible chime UK

Thanks Revo2Maxx. I'll go for a 30VA one and mount it elswhere then.
Also thanks for the pointers on setting it up in the app once installed.
I knew that would be nessesary but it's good to have some guidance to refer to.

So I want to add an indoor chime to it. I have a compatibility list from amcrest support which is the same as th...
