Setup
Initial Setup and Powering On

Camera Placement
Place the cameras in locations that provide a clear and unobstructed view of the area you wish to monitor. For crib monitoring, position the camera at a safe distance (at least 3 feet away) to prevent the baby from reaching the cord. The cameras can be placed on a flat surface or mounted to a wall using the included mounting screws.
Operating Instructions
Monitor Overview and Controls
The parent unit features a 5.5-inch Full HD IPS display and intuitive controls. Use the directional buttons to navigate menus and adjust camera angles. The 'OK' button confirms selections, and dedicated buttons provide quick access to features like two-way audio, night light, and split-screen mode.
Split-Screen Functionality
The split-screen feature allows you to view feeds from both cameras simultaneously on the parent unit. While in split-screen mode, the audio focus remains on one camera at a time. You can effortlessly alternate audio between cameras every 15 seconds using the SCAN mode, ensuring you hear activity from both monitored areas. The system supports connecting up to 4 cameras.

Pan, Tilt, and Zoom
Remotely control the camera's pan, tilt, and zoom functions directly from the parent unit. Use the directional buttons to adjust the camera's view and the zoom button to magnify the image up to 4 times. This allows for detailed monitoring without disturbing your child.
Two-Way Audio and Lullabies
Engage in two-way communication with your baby using the built-in microphone and speaker. Press and hold the microphone button on the parent unit to speak to your child. The monitor also includes programmed lullabies and white noise sounds to help soothe and comfort your baby remotely.
Night Vision and Night Light
The advanced IR night vision automatically activates in low-light conditions, providing a clear black-and-white image of your baby throughout the night. Additionally, the cameras feature a 6-color RGB night light with three intensity levels for each color, allowing you to create a custom and comforting ambiance in the nursery.
ECO Mode and Battery Life
The monitor features an ECO mode that conserves battery by automatically activating the display and audio based on sound detection. This power-saving mode extends the parent unit's battery life up to 20 hours, while regular mode provides up to 12 hours of continuous monitoring. The 5000mAh battery ensures reliable performance throughout the day and night.
Maintenance
Cleaning Instructions
To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your monitor, regularly clean the parent unit and cameras. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down surfaces. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the device. Keep the camera lenses free of dust and smudges for clear image quality.
Battery Care
The parent unit is equipped with a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery. To prolong battery life, avoid extreme temperatures and do not leave the unit fully discharged for extended periods. Charge the unit regularly, especially if it will not be used for a long time.
