The baby unit has infrared LEDs that allow you to
see your baby at night or in a dark room. When the
baby unit detects low light levels, the infrared LEDs
turn on automatically. The images from this baby
unit is in black and white, and appears on 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 image is in black
and white. This is normal due to external light sources.
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.
