you monitor your baby remotely. The system consists of a parent unit and a
baby unit. The parent unit features a microphone, LCD display, buttons for
control, and a speaker. The baby unit includes a temperature sensor and an

sounds, and view the baby unit’s video feed.
The parent unit runs on a rechargeable battery or AC power. It is recommended to use both the battery and AC power simultaneously for continuous monitoring. The battery alone provides cordless operation for a limited time.
The baby unit has a light that indicates its power status. It can be powered by the battery or AC power. The parent unit has display icons to show the zoom status, video playback, alert settings, temperature in Fahrenheit or Celsius, sound level indicators, speaker volume level, and the currently selected baby unit in single-CAM or multi-CAM mode.
The system offers various features such as language selection (English, French, or Spanish), monitoring mode selection (CAM X, Split CAM, or Patrol Mode), and sensitivity adjustment for the microphone of the baby unit.
The baby unit can be mounted on a wall using the provided wall mount.

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.

Stimulateurs cardiaques implantés dans l’organisme
Les simulateurs cardiaques (ne s’applique qu’aux dispositifs numériques sans
fil) :
L’organisme `Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR)’, une firme de recherche
indépendante, a mené une évaluation pluridisciplinaire des interférences entre
les téléphones sans fil portatifs et les stimulateurs cardiaques implantés
dans l’organisme. Appuyée par l’Administration des aliments et drogues (FDA)
des États-Unis, la firme WTR recommande aux médecins:
Avis aux détenteurs de stimulateurs cardiaques · Vous devriez maintenir les
dispositifs sans fil à
au moins six pouces du simulateur cardiaque. · Ils ne doivent PAS placer le
téléphone sans fil
directement sur le stimulateur cardiaque, tel que dans une poche de chemise,
lorsque celui-ci est en marche.
