6.3 Placing/changing the label

You can use the supplied labels to mark the doorbell button with your own name. To place the label on your door- bell button, please proceed as follows:

• Press the lug on the back side of the wall bracket (A) slightly to the rear (using a flat-blade screwdriver, if necessary) to loosen the electro- nic unit (C) from the wall bracket (see figure 2).

• Write the desired text (e.g. your name or the push-button function) on your label.

• Place the doorbell button into the wall bracket. 7 Operation After pairing, the doorbell button can be operated via a brief push of the button. In conjunction with other HomematicIP devices, such as the HomematicIP Combination Signalling Device or voice assistants (Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant), pressing the button can play back a sound or switch on lighting, for example. After pressing the doorbell button, a positive or negative acoustic feedback is triggered – depending on whether the radio command was received or not. This function is disabled by de- fault and can be activated via the HomematicIP app. 8 Changing battery If the battery symbol is displayed in the app or an empty battery is indicated on the device (see „9.4 Error codes and flashing sequences“ on page 22), replace the used battery with a new LR03/micro/AAA battery. You must ob- serve the correct battery polarity.20 Troubleshooting To replace the device batteries, please proceed as follows:

• Press the lug on the back side of the wall bracket (A) slightly to the rear (using a flat-blade screwdriver, if necessary) to loosen the electro

nic unit (C) from the wall bracket (see figure 2).

• Remove the empty battery from the battery compartment (D).

• Insert a new 1.5 V LR03/micro/bat- tery into the battery compartment, making sur e that it is the right way round. Figure 7

• Place the doorbell button into the wall bracket. Once the battery has been inserted, the device will perform a self-test (ap- prox. 2 seconds). Afterwards, initialisa- tion is carried out. The LED test display will indicate that initialisation is com- plete by lighting up orange and green (see „9.4 Error codes and flashing se- quences“ on page 22). Caution! There is a risk of explosi- on if the batteries are not replaced correctly. Replace only with the same or equivalent type. Never recharge non-rechargeable batte- ries. Do not throw the batteries into a fire. Do not expose batteries to excessive heat. Do not short- circuit batteries. Doing so will present a risk of explosion. Contact with batteries that are dead or damaged can cause skin irritation. Use protective gloves in this case. 9 Troubleshooting

Provided that the voltage value per- mits it, the device will remain ready for opera tion even if the battery voltage is low. Depending on the particular load, it may be possible to send transmissi

ons again repeatedly, once the batte- ries have been allowed a brief recovery period. If the voltage dr ops again during trans- mission, the error code for empty batte- ries will be displayed on the device (see „9.4 Error codes and flashing sequen- ces“ on page 22). In this case, repla- ce the flat battery with a new one (see „8 Changing battery“ on page 19).

9.2 Command not confirmed

If at least one receiver does not con- firm a command, the device LED (E) lights up red at the end of the failed transmission process. The reason for the failed transmission may be radio in-21 Troubleshooting terference (see „12 General information about radio operation“ on page 24). This may be caused by the following:

• Receiver cannot be reached.

• Receiver is unable to execute the command (load failure, mechanical blockage, etc.) or

The duty cycle is a legally regulated li- mit of the transmission time of devices in the 868 MHz range. The aim of this regulation is to safeguard the opera- tion of all devices working in the 868 MHz range. In the 868 MHz frequency range we use, the maximum transmission time of any device is 1% of an hour (i.e. 36 se- conds in an hour). Devices must cease transmission when they reach the 1% limit until this time restriction comes to an end. HomematicIP devices are de- signed and produced with 100% con- formity to this regulation. During normal operation, the duty cycle is not usually reached. However, repeated and radio-intensive pairing processes mean that it may be reached in isolated instances during start-up or initial installation of a system. If the duty cycle limit is exceeded, this is indicated by long red lighting of the device LED (E), and may manifest itself in the device temporarily working in- correctly. The device will start working correctly again after a short period (max. 1 hour).22 Troubleshooting

Interference can also be caused by switching ope- rations, electrical motors or defective electrical devices. The transmission range within buildings can dier significantly from that available in open space. Besides the transmitting power and the reception characteristics of the receiver, environmental factors such as humidity in the vicinity play an important role, as do on-site structural/screening conditions. eQ-3 AG, Maiburger Straße 29, 26789 Leer, Germany hereby declares that the radio equipment type HomematicIP HmIP-DBB is compliant with Directi- ve 2014/53/EU.
