Q: What is Voice Trigger Mode (Audio Activated Alerts)?
A: Voice Trigger Mode allows you to save battery life on the handheld monitor by turning the 
screen and speaker off when no sound is detected. This is useful if you want the handheld monitor 
to turn off while it is quiet in the room with the camera and alert you if there is a noise, such as a 
door opening.
Changing the Voice Trigger sensitivity level determines how sensitive the handheld monitor is to 
sound. If you want to be alerted by quiet sounds, set the sensitivity to high (see below). If the room 
is noisy during the day, set the sensitivity to low to keep the handheld monitor screen from turning 
on from quiet sounds.
