4.5 VOX Mode (Sound Activated)

In VOX mode, the monitor's screen will automatically activate and transmit video when it detects sound, such as your baby crying. This conserves battery life while ensuring you are alerted to your child's needs. Colored bars on the monitor indicate sound levels, even when muted.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning

• Wipe the monitor and camera surfaces with a soft, dry cloth.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

5.2 Battery Care

• The monitor's battery provides 16-30 hours of operation depending on usage (16 hours in screen-on mode, 30 hours in ECO/VOX mode).
• Charge the monitor fully before first use and whenever the low battery indicator appears.
• Avoid exposing the battery to extreme temperatures.

6. Troubleshooting

• No Signal/Poor Signal: Ensure the monitor's antenna is fully extended. Try moving the monitor closer to the camera. Obstructions like thick walls or other electronic devices can interfere with the signal. The system has a range of up to 1000 feet in open areas.

• Buzzing or Beeping Sound: This can occur if the camera and monitor are too close to each other. Maintain a distance of 5-6 feet (1.5-2 meters) between the camera and the monitor.
• Inaccurate Temperature Reading: The camera's internal temperature sensor may read 2-4°F (1-2°C) warmer than the actual room temperature, especially after being plugged in for extended periods, as the camera itself generates some heat during operation.
• VOX Mode Not Activating: Check the VOX sensitivity settings in the monitor's menu. Adjust to a higher sensitivity if your child's sounds are not consistently triggering the screen.
• Sound Cuts Out: Ensure both the monitor and camera are fully charged or connected to power. Check for any physical obstructions or interference sources between the units.
