Is there a way to have my SimpliSafe Doorbell make my base station chime when someone answers the door?
I have a simpliSafe doorbell where I only have power running to it. There is no chime connected to the SimpliSafe doorbell. Is there a way to have my base station chime when someone rings my doorbell?

Hi @andrewbrodginski ,
Yes. If your Video Doorbell Pro is associated with a SimpliSafe Alarm system in the SimpliSafe app, then pressing the button should be generating a doorbell chime on the Base Station. The setting can be found in the SimpliSafe app, under Menu > My System > General Settings.

I had to install doorbell wiring as my residence did not have a doorbell prior to moving in. If I want the chime to go to the base station, do I need to install a chime to then install the Chime Connector?

Hello. So, do you need a mechanical chime yes or no? I see a lot of comments here that says you, you don't, It's not working. Your support staff say yes you need it, no you don't. I am confused. I am looking into buying a camera doorbell and I would like it to be a Simplisafe one since I already have a Simplisafe system. I have no existing wiring and no mechanical chime. The wiring is not the issue, I can run power to it no problem. It's the mechanical chime that I don't have. I would really hate to have to get another brand doorbell and have to install another app just for that.

Does installing the simplisafe doorbell and the chime connector to the existing chime box remove the sound coming from the previously installed chime box? Or will the doorbell chime come from both the base station and the previous chime box?
