Tapo Hub H200 Only Rings Once When Pressing Tapo D230 Doorbell

Description

When configuring Tapo H200 as the second chime for Tapo D230 doorbell, you might notice that the "Ring Connected Hub" page lacks options to customize the number of rings and duration. Consequently, when someone rings the doorbell, the hub will only ring once. 

 

 

Workaround

While the engineering team is working on optimizing this feature,  creating automation will be a good idea to serve this purpose. 

 

Let's see how to make it work!

1. First, turn off "Ring Connected Hub" on Tapo D230.

2. Create an automation as below.

 

Trigger When Tapo D230 Doorbell Pressed
Action

Then Ring H200

Siren Duration >> e.g. 10 Seconds

Custom Siren Sounds >> e.g. Alarm 5

  @Wayne-TP  Thanks for this.  Recently since last update my H200 hub has stopped ringing reliably when the D230 doorbell is pressed.  Sometimes it rings sometimes it doesn't (the doorbell trigger shows in the hub log and my phone notification always sounds but the hub chime does not always output any sound).   I have followed these steps to create an automation as a workaround so hopefully it will now ring every time again.

  @Wayne-TP Still getting same behaviour unfortunately.  Intermittent ringing of hub chime when doorbell pressed.  Have tried reboots with no effect.  Any ideas?

  @Wayne-TP In the clip settings of the D230 I have reduced the record buffer and clip length to the min and increased the re-trigger time.  This seems to have improved the issue with the hub not ringing with a few quick tests but it could be a coincidence.
