Hello Baggins,
Thank you for proceeding with the update – this is an important step to rule out additional factors during the analysis.
It is completely normal that:
- The camera firmware update takes only 1–2 minutes.
- The MxBus module update can take several minutes and sometimes requires a second attempt. This is nothing to worry about.
The upper blue LED flashing continuously suggests that the RFID module is not correctly initialized.
A section from the Quick Install guide describes the expected status after a successful auto-configuration:
Once the auto-configuration is completed, the white camera illumination is on and the BellRFID shows:
- The green status LED flashing continuously.
- The blue LED flashes briefly and then turns off.
My recommendation for a final check:
- Reset the MxBus modules to factory defaults
- Reset the camera to factory defaults
- Run the auto-configuration of the Doorstation and follow the steps in the manual
Assumption: You have created a backup of the camera and BellRFID after the firmware update!
After a successful auto-configuration:
- There should be no spontaneous loss of the MxBus connection.
- Both bell buttons should work.
- The system should run stably.
Once confirmed, you can start setting up your IP Notify actions again – but do it step by step.
If this is not the case there is a hardware issue with the BellRFID, please let me know the results
About your second Question:
Another question: is the RFID module with the keypad the same as the one that comes with the bellbuttons?. In the event that I would have to replace the hardware, I have a source that has the keypad module available. The availability of these modules is very limited…
This will not work. The Keypad Module and BellRFID Module share the same electronic board, but they use different software flags. A Keypad will always be recognized by the system as a keypad.
