Operating Instructions

Basic Monitoring

The parent unit's 2.4-inch (6.1 cm) color screen provides a clear video feed from the baby unit. The monitor automatically switches to night vision mode in low-light conditions, ensuring clear images even in darkness.

VOX Function (Voice Operated Exchange)

The VOX function conserves battery life by keeping the parent unit's screen off until sound is detected from the baby unit. When your baby makes a sound or cries, the screen will automatically activate. The sensitivity of the VOX function can be adjusted through the parent unit's menu.

The DVM-64 includes 8 integrated lullabies that can be played from the baby unit to soothe your baby. Access and control the lullabies through the parent unit's menu.

Temperature Monitoring

The parent unit displays the temperature of the baby's room, as measured by the baby unit. You can set an alarm to be notified if the temperature goes outside a predefined range.
