I have just set up my Chime Pro, but it’s behaving a little oddly (to me at least).
It spends some of the time with a solid blue light (ring) showing, but it then goes into the following cycle:
Solid blue --> solid (faint) green --> solid green --> solid green + night light on --> flashing blue + night light on --> solid blue + night light on
This cycle seems to repeat a couple of times before things return to solid blue. And then after a few minutes, the cycle kicks off again.
Does anyone know what is going on? It seems that when the light is NOT solid blue, the Chime does ring if the doorbell button is pushed. So the thing becomes pretty useless for telling you someone’s at the door!
Hey there, @MattyH. Thank you for providing such excellent detail with your post. The LED pattern described matches the expected light indicators during an update. If this pattern is persisting, try relocating this Chime closer to your router, just until that update is complete.
After waiting some time, if it seems like the update is simply not completing, despite being close to network resources, try resetting the Chime. A reset can be performed by holding the setup button for 20 seconds. Once the reset is complete, please perform a new setup in the Ring app to reconnect the Chime, thus prompting a new update to take place. I hope this helps!
I’ve tried what you’ve suggested and things were OK for around 10 mins (solid blue light and chime ringing when doorbell pressed), but then the dreaded above-mentioned cycle starts again.
I’ve tried it three times now and the same result happens each time: a few mins of a stable blue light following by it cycling through the process described.
I suspect it could just be a bad unit. I will arrange for it to be sent back as it is serving no purpose as it stands.
New Ring Chime Pro 2 delivered today. Followed the set up instructions as before; this time the firmware upgrade took a while to go through but finally finished. All set up now and product seems stable (solid blue light for 20 mins plus and counting).
Conculsion: old Chime Pro 2 was either faulty or the firmware update corrupted the unit first time around.
