How can you tell difference between a mechanical and digital doorbell? The only way
to know for sure is to actually examine the doorbell chime.. An analogue doorbell
chime has two pistons that strike metallic keys to
make the “Ding Dong” sound. A
digital doorbell is just a speaker that digitally replicates the sound of a doorbell ring.
2.2 Wireless speed test
In order for SkyBell to function correctly it requires at least 1.5 mbps constant upload
speed and a fast internet connection. Make sure your home network is stable and that
your wireless network range is enough for the SkyBell to make a wireless connection
outside your home.
You can test the upload and download speed of your internet connection on several
online websites:
Dutch:

or
http://speedtest.ziggo.nl
German:

or

United Kingdom:

If you are not able to see a proper video stream once having installed the SkyBell, you
might need to use a WiFi repeater to improve your wireless home network.
2.3 Check power input
2.3.1 Connect SkyBell to doorbell transformer with doorbell chime
Make sure that the transformer of your doorbell is providing the correct power to the
SkyBell. You can check this by reading the power output on the transformer or
measuring the power current on the wires.
The SkyBell 2.0 sold on the e-Domotica.com web shop or via e-Domotica resellers are
suitable for the European market. This allows you to install SkyBell on a doorbell
transformer of at least 8 VAC up to 36V AC (alternating current).
You can recognize the SkyBell 2.0 on the button logo. If the button has
“SkyBell”
printed on it, you have a SkyBell 2.0
