Bell push mystery
Hi all: any opinions?
I installed two simple wireless bells for a neighbour the other week (this model in fact: http://tinyurl.com/oly67qv - made by Byron) (battery bellpush, chime plugs into mains). She needs one at the front door and one at the back door, each playing a different melody so that she knows where the caller is. The bells worked just as we hoped when I installed them, but this week the back door stopped working: push the button: nothing. The front door worked as before. I expected that it was a battery malfunction or something similar, but No it wasn't. I unplugged the one I suspected to be at fault (the two sit side by side in a double socket). Found nothing wrong, plugged it in again. Then, BOTH bellpushes operated BOTH bells, with an identical chime. Following instructions that came with the bell, I re-set the back door, i.e. made it re-learn its pairing and all now seems to be working as before. HOWEVER: I don't understand what happened, and therefore how it might be avoided in futu any suggestions? Thanks John |
