How to install Tapo Doorbell Tapo D235
Tapo D235 supports both battery powering and hardwire powering. Determine the power supply methods first and then install the doorbell following instructions below.
If you don’t have existing doorbell wiring at the door, or you don’t want to connect to existing doorbell wiring, use the built-in battery. You are free to determine the doorbell position and the mounting is easy and quick. When the doorbell battery level is low, you need to detach and charge it.
Follow instructions below to install your doorbell.
Mount Option 1. Stick to the wall
- Attach the included adhesive to the back of the bracket or the wedge you have selected. If you use the wedge, affix the bracket and the wedge with screws.
Note: The adhesive is for one-time use. Avoid re-using the adhesive to ensure its adhesion.
- Route the wires through the bracket (if there are existing wires). Wipe off the dust from the surface using a dry cloth, stick the bracket with adhesive to the smooth wall, and press it down for 15 seconds to ensure the bracket is firmly attached.
Note: This is applicable with tile, glass, marble, metal, stainless steel, and smooth wall surfaces.
- Mount the doorbell to the bracket.
Mount Option 2. Mount to the wall
- Route the wires (if there are existing wires) through the mounting template and stick the template. Drill two holes where indicated.
- Route the wires (if there are existing wires) through the bracket. Insert two anchors into the holes and use the screws to affix the bracket over the anchors.
Note: When mounting to uneven walls, stick the foam pad on the back of the bracket or wedge.
- Mount the doorbell to the bracket.
Your existing doorbell must be wired (not battery powered) and supplied by an 8-24V AC, 10VA minimum transformer.
You can choose whether to enable Always-On Mode, which supports 24/7 recording.
- Enabling Always-On Mode requires bypassing your existing chime.
- Disabling Always-On Mode allows using your existing chime. Hardwiring provides a constant power source.
