OPERATING TIME / RANGE
Question
Why does my baby
monitor manage a much
smaller distance than
specified in this user
manual?
The operating time of
the parent unit is
supposed to be up
to 10 hours. Why is the
operating time of my
parent unit shorter?
VIDEO DISPLAY
Question
Why do I get
interference on the
parent unit? Why does
the video display on the
parent unit flicker?
Why isn't there any
image on the video
display while the
link light is green?
Why isn't the image on
the video display clear?
Answer
The specified operating range of 300 meters /985 feet is only valid
outdoors in open air and in the line of sight. Depending on the surroundings
and other disturbing factors, the operating range may be smaller (see also
table in chapter on positioning of parent and baby unit).
Inside your house, the operating range is up to 50 meters/165 feet, which is
also limited by the number and type of walls and/or ceilings between the
parent unit and the baby unit.
The video brightness of the parent unit may be set too high, which causes
the parent unit to consume a lot of energy. Decrease the brightness of the
parent unit.
The parent unit consumes a lot of energy when the video display is
switched on continuously. Activate the AUDIO, VOX or ECO mode in the
parent unit's menu to increase the operating time (see chapter 'Features',
sections 'AUDIO mode', 'VOX mode' or ' ECO mode' ).
The volume of the parent unit may be set too high, which causes the parent
unit to consume a lot of energy. Decrease the volume of the parent unit.
As any other rechargeable electronic device, the battery capacity decreases
after a long period of usage.
Answer
Interference may occur when the parent unit is out of range of the baby
unit. Interference may also occur if there are too many walls or ceilings
between the parent unit and the baby unit or when other 2.4 GHz wireless
devices are switched on (e.g. microwave, Wi-Fi router).
Put the parent unit in a different place, closer to the baby unit, or switch off
other wireless devices.
The rechargeable battery of the parent unit may need to be charged.
The parent unit may be in the AUDIO, VOX or ECO mode. Press the mode
button on the right side of the parent unit to switch modes (see 'Modes').
The display brightness may be set too low. Increase the display brightness
on the parent unit using the control button in the centre.
Perhaps the lens of the baby unit is dirty. Clean the lens with a dry cloth.
