+--- Thread: Using simple door bell buttons (/thread-1398.html)
- John W - 03-09-2009
Hi,
if I use a simple door bell button rather than a door station, can I get the phones to announce the visitor ? (just to ring is fine)
do I need a ringer module for this to work ?
(I\'m unclear as the details say its needed for a doorstation, but is it needed for a simple bell push )
This door has no need for a door station, and I don\'t need to talk to the person via intercom or anything like that. What I would like though is to get the phones to ring because the keypad cannot be heard from all areas of the house (or outside).
Also, do I need to use a special action code in the comfigurator, or does \'siren doorbell\' (the standard response) do the job to ring the phone too ?
This is on a Comfort I.
Many thanks,
John.

There is an action Activate Doorphone in Response wizard, Security catergory
Asssign that to the doorbel button zone.
You will need a RGR04 module to ring the phones, but check to hear if the relays click when the button is pressed, because this action is a relic of the old days when there was no dedicated door station
