active monitoring function. The five LEDs
that display the volume
are switched off
while a lullaby is playing. If you also mute
the device then you will neither be able to
hear your baby nor see the level of noise in
the nursery. We therefore recommend that
you always leave at least one transmission
active.
6.7 Setting the vibrating alarm
The parent unit is equipped with an
integrated vibrating alarm function. The
parent unit will vibrate:
• if there is a high level of noise in the
nursery;
• when the battery charge becomes low;
• if the parent unit goes out of range.
1. You activate the vibrating alarm by
holding down the
Vibrating alarm on/off
for at least 3 seconds.
The vibrating alarm symbol
appears in the display
to
show that the alarm is active,
and the device will vibrate once
to confirm the activation.
The vibrating alarm is triggered only by
very loud noises when four or five LEDs
light up on the display
.
2. You switch the vibrating alarm off by
again holding down the
Vibrating alarm
on/off
button
for at least 3 seconds.
This will prompt a brief vibration and the
vibrating alarm symbol will disappear.
6.8 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
.
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 + 15
VOL - 16
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 "6.5 Adjusting the volume control" on
page 39).
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 + 15
and
VOL - 16
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.
