HOW TO USE

BREATHING ALERT
This feature is useful when the BU is paired to a Baby Motion Sensor Mat. Use buttons 15
16 to select between ON or OFF, press button 13 to conrm.
ON – The PU will monitor the breathing movement of baby.
In case there is no movement for over 20 sec, it will provide sound alarm and ashing to
alert parents.
Moreover, the PU will provide an alarm in case sensor mat battery is low (icon “D” show ashing on icon screen)
or sensor mat is out of range from BU (icon“D” and “O”show ashing on icon screen).
OFF – The PU will stop monitoring the movement of baby. Under such mode, the PU also will not provide an
alarm in case the sensor mat battery level is low or the sensor mat is out of range from BU.
RECEIVING SIGNAL
1.
2.
Place the PU at a reasonable distance away from BU to avoid feedback. Too short distance will create a
screeching sound at the speaker.
Once the PU receives a signal, the PU screen will light up and depending the signal is coming from which
BU, the corresponding baby unit no. will show up together with other information (room temperature,
battery level, starry night projector status) of that BU.
Note: In case the PU is paired to only one BU, the icon screen will not show the baby unit no.
SPEAKER FEATURE
1.
2.
3.

5.
The speaker volume can be adjusted using buttons 15 16.
The temperature reading also change correspondingly during adjustment to show the level ( 1 to 5) being
selected. When the level is set to minimum and ” “ show up on PU screen, the speaker is totally muted. Under
such circumstances, the parents can still monitor the baby activities by looking at the sound level meter.
If the PU is paired to work with two BUs, BU no. 1 always has top priority. This means while the unit is
listening to signal from BU no. 2, in case BU no. 1 starts transmitting, PU will immediately switch listening to
BU no.1 until it stops to transmit, then it will switch back to listen to BU no.2.
To avoid parent missing the attendance to BU no.2, while PU is listening to signal from BU no.1, in case BU
no. 2 starts to transmit,“2” will show ashing on icon screen to alert parent. If parent prefers to listen to BU
no. 2, he can short press button 13 and PU switches listening to BU no.2 while “1” go ashing (if BU no. 1 still
transmitting). Further press of button 13 will switch back to BU no. 1 again. Under such arrangement, the
parent is able to monitor both babies.
Under standby mode, the PU will alternately scan between the two BUs for activities. When either one
of the BU starts to transmit, the PU will immediately listen to that BU and the icon screen will only show
information from it until the signal goes o.
VIBRATION FEATURE
When the PU is set to ON with vibration, whenever a baby’s voice is detected, the vibrator starts functioning.
This feature is useful when the parent is working under noisy environment (eg. vacuum cleaning). To save
battery power, it is recommended not to use the vibrating alert frequently.
OUT OF RANGE
Once the PU is beyond the communication range of BU for over 30 sec, an out of range alarm will be heard (
OFF is selected in setting of Ultra safe mode ), icon“O” ashing on icon screen, the temperature reading will
show “ - - “. The alarm will only go o when the PU falls back within the communication range of BU.
Note: This alarm will also be heard in case the BU is switched o, or its battery has run out, or its power
supply is cut o.
STARRY NIGHT LIGHT
Use the buttons 15 16 to select between OFF, ON or VOX for the starry night projector, press button 13 to
