Each time you press one of the buttons you will hear a
beep at the volume that is currently set and the
corresponding volume indicators 2 will be illuminated. The
louder your chosen setting, the louder will be any beeps
and the more volume indicators 2 will light up. In the
display 3 the level is also shown by numbers of bars. The
louder your chosen setting, the more bars will appear.
Note: When the VOX function is set to low sensitivity (see
"9.2 Using the VOX function to adjust the transmission
sensitivity" on page 57), then quiet sounds will not be
transmitted regardless of the volume setting. This means
that turning up the volume will not enable you to hear
anything more. If you want to hear more of the sounds from
the nursery you will need to increase the transmission
sensitivity by selecting a higher VOX level.
Mute Setting
The parent unit 1 can be "MUTED". Sounds from the
nursery will be transmitted but no longer heard. The noise
level indicators 2 will continue to indicate the noise level in
the nursery. The more LEDs are lit the louder are the noises
in the nursery.
When reducing the volume to mute at the end you will hear
a double beep and the volume icon 23 on the display 3
shows no bar.
Note: If the parent unit is muted and you activate the talk-
back function, the volume will automatically return to the
first level. Also, if the parent unit is muted and you want to
activate the lullabies the volume automatically returns to
volume level 1. This is a safety setting to ensure that you
always stay connected to your baby and see or hear if your
baby is in need (see "9.4 Lullabies " on page 57).
9.2 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.
Activate the VOX function by briefly pressing the VOX
button 4.
The VOX level indicators 2 start flashing and are indicating
the current set level.
By pressing the VOX adjustment buttons 5 the sensitivity
can be increased (+) or decreased (-).
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 continuously.
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 level
indicators 2 will no longer be flashing, and the volume and
VOX adjustment buttons 5 now only modify the volume.
9.3 Talk to your baby
You can use the "Talk back" function to speak to your baby.
Hold down the Talk Back button 6 on the parent unit 1.
The display 4 shows the Talk Back icon 27 and a single
beep indicates that function is activated and that you can
start talking.
Keep the button pressed while you talk and release the
button to hear your baby's response.
Notes:
– If the baby unit 15 is in Eco-Mode, the function is
deactivated so that you do not accidently wake up
your baby while it is sleeping. If in this case you
press the button during Eco-Mode, a double beep
signal will inform you that the talk-back function is
currently not available and the display 4 shows a
flashing Talk Back icon 27.
– If the volume of the parent unit is set to "MUTE" (see
"Mute Setting" on page 57), the volume will
automatically be increased to level 1 as soon as you
press the Talk Back button 6. So you can hear the
reaction of your baby.
9.4 Lullabies
To soothe your baby and put it to sleep, you can play
lullabies on the speaker 20 of the baby unit 15. A choice of
four different lullabies and one track of natural sounds are
available.
1. Activate the function by briefly pressing the Lullabies
on/off button 10.
The first song will be played and at the same time the
lullabies icon 28 will appear on the display 3 of the parent
unit 1.
2. Switch to the next song by holding down the Lullabies
on/off button 10.
The lullabies icon 28 on the display 3 will flash briefly
and then the next song will be played.
