    Glad you asked, @Kds8684! When it comes to power supply or method, our devices are designed to detect a compatible addition of power. Going from Solar Charger to using wiring requires nothing more than the proper wire connection and voltage rating. Please ensure the transformer supplying the power is rated for 8v to 24v AC. Nothing more should need to be done in the Ring app, other than selecting chime type from general settings, if a chime kit is wired in and being used. Of course, the Solar Panel and existing wires cannot be used together. I hope this helps! :)
