hear your baby nor see the level of noise in
the nursery. We therefore recommend that
you always leave at least one transmission
active.
6.6 Using the VOX function to
adjust the transmission
sensitivity
Babies make a lot of different noises. These
can range from loud breathing through
babbling to calling or loud crying. The VOX
function can be set up in such a way that
only loud sounds such as crying or calling
are transmitted while quieter sounds are not
registered.
The VOX function sets up the transmission
sensitivity of the microphone. The higher the
VOX level the more sensitive the device is to
noises.
1. You activate the VOX function by briefly
pressing the
VOX
button
The LEDs
indicate the sensitivity of
the current setting by flashing.
2. You can increase or decrease the
transmission sensitivity by pressing one
of the
VOL + 13
or
VOL - 14
buttons. The
corresponds
to the selected level:
– VOX level 1 = extremely low sensitivity,
reacts only if baby screams very loudly;
– VOX level 2 = low sensitivity, reacts if
baby screams loudly;
– VOX level 3 = normal sensitivity, reacts
if baby cries normally;
– VOX level 4 = high sensitivity, reacts
even to slight sounds;
– VOX level 5 = Eco-Mode is switched
off. The unit is set to transmit continu-
ously.
You can set up the volume at which the parent
unit should output the transmitted sounds
using the two
VOL + 15
and
VOL - 16
buttons
(see "6.4 Adjusting the volume control" on
page 36).
Note:
After activating the VOX function, you
have about two seconds to alter the
transmission sensitivity. The device will then
automatically switch back to transmitting
sounds. You can see this has happened
because the LEDs
will no longer be
flashing, and the
VOL + 13
and
VOL - 14
buttons now only modify the volume.
Caution!
In continuous transmission mode
at VOX level 5, all sounds are transmitted
continuously. When the baby is sleeping
peacefully, the volume is automatically
reduced to its lowest level after a few
seconds to minimise background noise. As
soon as the child begins to make a noise,
the volume automatically returns to its
previous setting.
6.7 Talking to your baby
You can use the “Talk back” function to
speak to your baby.
1. Hold down the
TALK 22
parent unit.
The display
shows
the TALK symbol.
2. At the same time, speak into the
microphone
on the parent unit.
Your baby can now hear your voice from
the loudspeaker
on the baby unit.
3. Release the
TALK 22
button in order to
hear the baby’s reaction.
The TALK symbol disappears.
Notes:
– If the baby unit
function is deactivated so that you do
not inadvertently wake your baby. In
this case, two consecutive beeps will
remind you that the talk-back function
is currently not available.
– The display
shows a flashing
TALK symbol.
– If the volume of the parent unit is set to
36), it will automatically be
increased to level 1 as soon as you
press the
TALK 22
button.
