Sound sensitivity and sound activation
Sound sensitivity
With sound sensitivity setting, you can choose to hear sounds
from the baby unit all the time, or to hear sounds that exceed
a certain level. The default level Highest allows you to hear all
sounds (including background noises).
If you set the sound
sensitivity to a lower level
(e.g. Medium), you will only
hear sounds that exceed the
selected level. The baby unit
may not detect soft sounds,
and the parent unit speaker
may remain quiet.
For details, please see Adjust
the sound sensitivity of
the baby unit in the User's
manual.
Night vision
The baby unit has infrared LEDs that
allow you to see your baby clearly at
night or in a dark room. When the baby
unit being viewed detects low light
levels, the infrared LEDs are switched
on automatically. The images from the
baby unit are in black and white, and
appears on the screen.
Notes
• It is normal if you see a short white glare
on your parent unit screen as the baby unit
is adapting to the dark environment.
• When the infrared LEDs are on, the images
are in black and white. This is normal.
Tip
• Depending on the surroundings and other
interfering factors, like lightings, objects,
colors and backgrounds, the display
resolution may vary. Adjust the baby unit's
angle or place the baby unit at a higher
level to prevent glare and blurry display.
Sound activation
When sound activation is on, the parent unit screen stays off to save
power when the baby unit detects no sound.
Once the baby unit detects sounds that are louder than the chosen
sound sensitivity level, the parent unit screen turns on automatically.
It will then turn off again after 50 seconds of no sound detection.
Dim mode
The dim mode is to help you save the parent unit power. Your parent unit display will dim
automatically after 10 minutes of inactivity, in which there is neither key pressed nor alert
received from the baby unit.
10 min inactivity

Note
NOTE NOTES
• While the screen is dimmed, any keypress or alert message will trigger the screen to return to
the preset brightness level. After 10 minutes of inactivity, it will resume to dim mode.
