Using a Ring Battery Doorbell Plus in combination with a wired legacy doorbell
battery-video-doorbell

I understand that if I attach the new Ring BDP to the legacy doorbell's wiring, then the legacy doorbell chime will not function. I am thinking that I might NOT connect it to the wiring, relying on the Ring Battery operating instead. If I install the Ring next to the legacy doorbell, visitors might be confused as to which doorbell (Ring or legacy) to ring. However, am I right in assuming that the Ring will record video based upon the motion detection of someone coming to my door?

Hi @user_b4473c. It sounds like you are thinking of the Video Doorbell Wired, which does not ring internal chime kits. If you connect the Battery Doorbell Plus to an existing doorbell system, with a chime kit, the chime will ring when someone presses the button. Just make sure to follow the installation instructions, and use a compatible transformer in the doorbell circuit. Ring Doorbells are also designed to detect visitors at your door, sending you a push notification to let you know motion has been detected. With an active Ring Protect subscription, your Doorbell will also record motion events, which you can then view in the Ring app after the fact. I hope this information helps answer your questions.
