Default signal pattern
When the baby monitor is activated by the baby’s voice or the contact mat, the following happens:
1The LED on the baby monitor lights up in green to show that it is signalling the receiver.
2The Visit LED on the receiver lights up in orange and it starts to sound, ash or vibrate with a certain pace, called signal
pattern. The baby monitor and the contact mat accessory determine the signal pattern. The default is as follows:
Baby monitor Receiver signal pattern
Source LED LED Sound Vibration Flash
Baby voice Green, top Orange light Baby melody Fast Yes
Contact mat Green, bottom Green light 1door chime, low Slow Yes
Changing the signal pattern
If you have more than one child, you can set a unique Visit LED pattern for each baby monitor. Just

switches are down (o).

Changing the radio key
If your Visit system is activated for no reason, there is probably a nearby system that triggers yours. In order to avoid radio
interference, you need to change the radio key on all units. The radio key switches are located under the monitor cover.
Here is how you change the radio key:
1Carefully remove the table stand and open the front cover on the baby monitor. Move any
radio key switch to the up (on position) to change the radio key.
2Press and hold the test/function button on the receiver until the green and yellow Visit LEDs
blink alternately. Release the button.
3Press both test buttons simultaneously on the baby monitor within 30 s to send the new radio key.
4All Visit LEDs on the receiver blink 5 times to show that the radio key has been changed. It then returns to normal mode.
Note: All Visit units must be set to the same radio key in order to operate as a group.
