  Hi @Mikebfc. As mentioned on the [product page](https://ring.com/products/video-doorbell-wired) for the Video Doorbell Wired, it does not ring your internal chime kit. To hear audio alerts in your home, pair with a [Ring Chime](https://ring.com/products/chime-gen2) or a compatible Alexa device.You can find installation instructions for the Ring Video Doorbell Wired in our Help Center Article [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360054984332-Installing-Ring-Video-Doorbell-Wired), and wiring diagrams [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/4405783047188-Wiring-Diagrams-for-Ring-Doorbell-Wired-). Make sure the jumper cable is installed as demonstrated in the wiring diagram, and do not use anything additional that isn't listed in the installation instructions.

  Hi, @192debab75f06e4cc1c39e4ae19e18! The Video Doorbell Wired is intended to be installed with a jumper cable, via the steps linked above. If you do not have a chime kit, or wish to power this another way, we do have [Plug-In Adapter available on the accessories page at Ring.com](https://ring.com/products/video-doorbell-plugin-adapter-gen-2). For any other installation method or if you are uncomfortable with the wiring, we advise consulting with a qualified electrician. I hope this helps! :)

  Hey guys, Thought I'd give you an insight into easily powering a 2nd gen Ring doorbell from a Byron 776 doorbell (however, please see Note 1 below) and the steps you need to go through to making the Byron bell ding-dong when you press the Ring button. I'm amazed at the amount of misinformation and or partial info posted about this so I thought I'd help out. **Step 1 connections:** The bell has 4 output connections labelled 0, 1, 2, 3 Use a twin core wire to connect your Ring doorbell to connections 0 and 2 that'll provide the highest voltage output. It doesn't matter which wire connects to which terminal on the back of the Ring doorbell. **Step 2 Switch on the 'In-home Chime' setting on your app** Go through the following steps on the Ring App to make your Byron bell ding-dong when you press the Ring button: 1. Select the 'Device Settings' option 2. Then select ' In-home Chime Settings 3. Then select 'Automatic Chime Detection' 4. Then select 'Yes, I have an In-home Chime' 5. Then select 'Ring my In-home Chime' **Note 1** I have an old Byron doorbell that delivers 14.5V output. I borrowed a new Byron doorbell and it claims to have an 8V output but measurement shows its well below that (around 6,5V) so I couldn't guarantee the new Byron doorbell will provide sufficient power. Buy one from Toolstation and try it as you can return without hassle if it doesn't work. **Note 2** I had an older 2nd gen doorbell and never had to go through the frustrating set up above to make my Byron bell ring (sorry ding-dong). I only posted this as I know other people will never discover these options and end up unnecessarily purchasing Ring Chimes!! Hope this helps a few people.
