Help Needed - Video Doorbell Question!

chrisguy116

Looking for some help on my Reolink install. I am planning on using Reolink chime (+ bypassing existing one) but I'm having trouble figuring out where the bypass cable needs to go within the chime unit. My bell transformer is located in the CU.

Image 1: shows chime unit, with one feed coming from CU/Transformer and another then going to the bell, further image shows these labelled 2 & 1 respectively).

Once I confirm the voltage on the bell side is 'enough' for the Reolink bell, where will I add the jumper cable? Between 3 & 0?

Many thanks in advance

For reference, the 'jumper cable' effectively joins the two cables together and came with the pack. I think I can also just move a cable instead.

3 and 0 are going to create a short when the bell is pushed. Where's the circuit diagram showing how this bypass is supposed to be installed?

I guess this is the most relatable, but its certainly not great. Given Ire/UK don't use the front/trans methodology, I'm confused to say the least.

Ok, got it now. Sorry - I was wrong on 0 and 3. I couldn't see the numbers properly. To get which ever voltage is selected at the transformer out at the doorbell join 0 and 3 as you said.

Brilliant, thanks so much! :)
