PHILIPS Avent SCD971 - Download the Baby Monitor+ app - 3

To fully experience and activate the SenselQ and Cry Translation features, we recommend downloading the Baby Monitor+ app before using your baby monitor.

With the Philips Avent Baby Monitor+ app, you can see and hear your baby and check on their wellness from anywhere in the world by using Wi-Fi or mobile internet.

Before you start the set-up procedure, make sure:

- You have wireless Internet access (2.4 GHz Wi-Fi).

- You have a good Wi-Fi signal.

Note: If you use a Wi-Fi extender, make sure that your router and your Wi-Fi extender have the same SSID (the network name) and that you use the same password for the router and the extender. Also make sure the Wi-Fi extender supports 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi.

- You have the password of your Wi-Fi network at hand. Always connect the baby monitor to a secure network (see 'Security and privacy').

1. Download the app. Scan the QR code or search the keywords "Philips Avent Baby Monitor+" in the App Store or Google Play Store.

2. Launch the app.

Tip: Connect your phone to the Internet via Wi-Fi. Use of data connection may involve extra charges from your provider, depending on your subscription.

a. Make sure that you use a working email address on which you can always be reached. b. Use a strong password (see the "Strong passwords" section). c. When you receive the verification email, follow the instructions in the email to continue creating your account.

4. Set up your baby monitor by following the instructions in the app.

Security and privacy

Network security

Do not use the app on an unsecured Wi-Fi network. We advise you to use the baby monitor only on a Wi-Fi network protected with WPA2 or higher encryption. With the app, you can also use your phone's data network (often referred to as 4G or 5G).

Wi-Fi hotspots in public places, such as airports and hotels, are convenient, but they are often not secure.

We advise you to use the baby monitor only on a Wi-Fi network protected with WPA2 or higher encryption. We advise you not to use the baby monitor on a network that uses WEP encryption.

Note: Wi-Fi networks that do not require a password are not secure.

Strong passwords

Passwords are essential to protect your Wi-Fi network and your account against unauthorized access. The stronger your password, the better protected your Wi-Fi network and your account are.

The rules for a strong password are:

1. Has at least 8 characters. 2. Does not contain your name, your baby's name, another real name, or a brand name. 3. Does not contain a complete word. 4. Is very different from passwords that you have used before. 5. Contains at least 3 out of 4 types of the following characters: a. Uppercase characters (A - Z) b. Lowercase characters (a - z) c. Numeric characters (0 - 9) d. Special characters (e.g., #\$%&).

Personal data security

To delete and therefore protect your personal data, factory-reset your Baby Unit by long pressing the On/Off button for 10 seconds when the Baby Unit is on, before discarding the device. It is strongly advised to disconnect the Baby Unit from the Philips Avent Baby Monitor+ app by selecting "Disconnect Baby Monitor" option in the Baby Unit settings of the app.

If you are a second-hand owner, we advise you to perform the following steps to factory-reset your Baby Unit to secure your device:

1. Turn on your Baby Unit. 2. Once the LED has changed from orange to green or white, press the On/Off button for more than 10 seconds until the LED flashes between green and orange, and the Baby Unit will factory-reset.

In case you do not perform the factory-reset, Philips will not be responsible for the performance and functionalities of the device, and your privacy might be compromised.

Account management

There are different access rights for the Admin user and Guest users. You can invite relatives or friends as guest users and allow them to monitor your baby on their smart devices.

Provision of security updates

We continuously monitor the security of the software used in the product. If necessary, security updates will be provided through software updates. Software updates may also be provided to offer bug-fixes and performance improvements, or to introduce new product features. Updates may be provided to the Baby Unit and Parent Unit firmware, or in the mobile app. Updates are wirelessly delivered to the product without the usage of special cables or equipment.

Compatibility

iOS system: Requires iOS 11.0 or later

Android system: Requires Android 6.0 or later

Note: The compatibility is subject to change over time.

Mount your Baby Unit

For the optimal monitoring experience with the sleep tracking feature offered by SenselQ, we highly recommend utilizing the 2-in-1 mount to attach the Baby Unit to either a crib or a wall. By doing so, you will be able to position the camera in the most suitable location with an excellent view, allowing you to monitor your baby's sleep and breathing patterns with ease and efficiency.

How are you mounting?

The highest mattress position is typically used for newborns and smaller babies. We recommend using the crib mount when the mattress is in this position.

Illustration of a baby crib with a medical device and a child icon (no text or symbols)

It is advised to move the mattress down when your baby can push themselves up onto their knees and show signs of sitting up. In this case using the crib mount is still preferred.

Illustration of a baby crib with a walking figure and a vertical pole, no text or symbols present.

When your baby can start to pull themselves up on their own and show signs of standing, it is best to lower the mattress to the lowest position. We recommend using the wall mount for mattresses at lower positions.

Dos and Don'ts

Illustration of a baby crib with a baby feeding and a red X symbol (no text or symbols present)

Try and keep your baby's crib and sleeping area free from hanging mobiles, toys, or moving lights. The fewer objects cluttering the view, the better your baby monitor will work.

The monitor is sensitive to movement, avoid using a rocking crib or bassinet.

Avoid mounting your Baby Unit over the short side of the crib. This will limit how well you will see your baby.

Troubleshooting

This chapter summarizes the most common problems you could encounter with the appliance. If you are unable to solve the problem with the information below, visit www.philips.com/support for a list of frequently asked questions or contact the Consumer Care Center in your country.

PARENT UNIT

Problem Solution
Why can't I connect my Parent Unit to other Philips Avent Baby Units?The Philips Avent Premium Connected Baby Monitor's Parent Unit can only connect to the Baby Unit which is included in the same package.
If you want to view other Philips Avent baby monitors (SCD641, SCD643, SCD921, SCD923), you can add them in the Philips Avent Baby Monitor+ app.
Why doesn't the Parent Unit charge when I plug it in?Perhaps the adapter is damaged.Check if this issue persists by using the other adapter supplied in the package. If the adapter is damaged, always have it replaced with an original one in order to avoid hazards. (see the "Ordering accessories" chapter)
Perhaps there is a battery error.Check the battery status light on the Parent Unit. If it is solid red, contact the consumer care centre in your country.

PARENT UNIT

Why can the charging time of the Parent Unit exceed 3 hours?Perhaps temperature has exceeded the charging tolerance that could potentially cut off the charging circuit as a safety protection mechanism. To resume charging, move the charging station away from any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stove or other appliances (including amplifiers) that produce heat.
PHILIPS Avent SCD971 - Troubleshooting - 1Perhaps you are not using the right power adapter. If you see the icon on the left, it means an incorrect power adapter is detected. Always use the provided adapter for optimal charging performance.
Why does my baby monitor manage a much smaller distance than specified in this user manual?The specified operating range between the Parent Unit and Baby Unit is up to 400 meters, and it's only valid outdoors in open air and in the line of sight. Depending on the surroundings and other disturbing factors, the operating range may be smaller.Inside your house, the operating range is up to 50 meters, which is also limited by the number and type of walls and/or ceilings between the Parent Unit and the Baby Unit.
Why can't I establish a connection between the Parent Unit and Baby Unit? Why is the connection lost every now and then? Why are there sound interruptions?The Baby Unit and the Parent Unit are probably close to the outer limits of the operating range or there is interference from other 2.4 GHz wireless devices.Try a different location, decrease the distance between the units or switch off other 2.4 GHz wireless devices (laptops, mobile phones, microwaves, etc).Maybe the router connection of the Baby Unit is not strong or steady.Check the router signal strength of your Baby Unit on the Baby Monitor+ app, if it is weak, try moving the router closer to the Baby Unit or using Wi-Fi extenders to ensure a strong and steady connection for an optimal performance.
Why does the app/Parent Unit react too quickly to other sounds than my baby makes?The sensitivity level may be set too high. When your baby makes soft sounds, the sensitivity has to be higher. However, the noisier the nursery room is, the lower the sensitivity level can be set. You can change the sensitivity of your baby monitor on the Parent Unit's menu.
Why don't I hear a sound from the Parent Unit? Why the Parent Unit is not transmitting sounds?Perhaps the Parent Unit is muted. Unmute it by pressing the top part of the control button and adjust the volume.Perhaps you have muted on the app. Unmute it by tapping the mute icon on the video screen.The sensitivity is set too low. Increase the sensitivity in the Parent Unit's menu or the app to a higher level.The Baby Unit may be too far away from your baby. Make sure the Baby Unit is not further than 1.5 meters away from your baby for optimal sound detection.
Why do I get interference on the Parent Unit? Why does the video display on the Parent Unit flicker?Why does the Parent Unit make a buzzing sound?Interference may occur when the Parent Unit is out of range of the Baby Unit. If there are too many walls or ceilings between the Parent Unit and the Baby Unit. Or when other 2.4 GHz wireless devices are switched on (e.g. microwave, Wi-Fi router).Put the Parent Unit in a different place, closer to the Baby Unit, or switch off other wireless devices.

SenseIQ/Cry Translation

Problem Solution
Why is there no breathing and movement analysis?Maybe you haven't activated / turned on the SenseIQ feature. Download the Philips Avent Baby Monitor+ app (see the "Download the Baby Monitor+ app" chapter) on your phone, and then activate / turn on the SenseIQ feature in the menu of the Parent Unit or app.
Maybe the Baby Unit is not set up properly.To ensure everything's mounted and positioned well, you can do a positioning check found in the Tutorials and Tips section of the Help and support menu in the app. Completing the positioning check should allow for SenseIQ to function without interruption after enabling it.Avoid using solid-colored blanket or sleeping bag and use a patterned blankets or baby clothes to improve visibility. Make sure you have contrast between the baby blanket/sleeping bag and the mattress cover.
Maybe the Baby Unit is too far away from your baby.When using the crib mount, make sure to put the mount on the long side of the crib. When using the wall mount, ensure that the distance between the crib and the Baby Unit is not too much. This will help ensure that the whole baby mattress area is clearly seen and that you can monitor your baby effectively.
Cry Translation is not working, what should I do?Perhaps the Wi-Fi connection is weak or not stable.Check the Wi-Fi signal strength on the setting page of the app and it works best when it shows "Excellent" or "Good".
Perhaps the Baby Unit connection is not good.Make sure the Baby Unit is properly connected to the Parent Unit or the App.Ensure that the Baby Unit is placed close to the baby to detect the baby's cry and minimize interference from ambient noise.
Perhaps the subscription has expired.The Cry Translation service is available for a 90-day free trial period. If you want to continue using it, you would need to sign up for a paid subscription service with ZoundreamTM.
Perhaps there are too many environmental noises.Avoid positioning the Baby Unit near loud sources like televisions or devices that produce sounds and vibrations, such as smartphones on vibration mode. These noises can interfere with the device's ability to accurately detect and translate your baby's cries.

APP

Problem Solution
I can't connect to the baby monitor. Each time I end up in the connection error screen. What is the matter?Make sure your smart device uses the same Wi-Fi network you want to connect the baby monitor to.
Check the status light of the Baby Unit, if it is flashing red, the Wi-Fi password entered was wrong. Restart the set up process. Re-enter the Wi-Fi password and make sure that the password is correct.
Perhaps the router SSID (the network name) or the password contains special symbols. If it does, change the name of your router SSID or the password accordingly.
If the status light turns solid red while trying to connect, the baby monitor successfully connected to the router but fails to connect to the internet. Then check if you have access to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi by trying to access other apps like YouTube, Facebook etc. If other apps do not respond, please make sure you have internet access. If there is internet access, the server could be temporarily unavailable. Please try to set up again later.
Perhaps you have been tying to connect the baby monitor to a 5 GHz network. Please check that you have chosen a SSID of a network that supports 2.4 GHz.
I have problems making my baby monitor read the QR code on my smart device. What can I do?Make sure that you hold the QR code at approx. 20 cm / 7.8 inch distance from the baby monitor lens. Try moving the smart device slightly up, down, left or right to ensure the QR code is directly in front of the baby monitor lens. You can also try moving the smart device closer to or further away from the baby monitor lens to allow proper focusing. Make sure that there is enough light in the room, but avoid too bright light. When the baby monitor has read the QR code, you hear a confirmation sound and the status light of the Baby Unit turns white.
Perhaps part of your hand covers the QR code. Hold your device in such a way that your hand does not cover the QR code.
I lose connection to the app frequently. What is the matter?If the status light on the front of the baby monitor is solid white and you keep losing connection, there may be a problem with the Internet connection of your router, smartphone or baby monitor. Check the Wi-Fi signal on your smartphone or the 4G or 5G speed by trying to watch a movie, e.g. on YouTube. Or reset your Wi-Fi router.
Why can't I get video live streaming on the app?Check the Wi-Fi signal strength on the setting page of the app and it works best when it shows "Excellent" or "Good".
Perhaps there are already three people monitoring your baby. The app only allows three people to watch simultaneously. If you have administrator rights, you can remove access for one of the guests to be able to watch yourself.
Perhaps the privacy mode is on which will temporarily disconnect the connection with the Baby Unit. You can turn off the privacy mode in the Parent Unit. (see the "Privacy mode" chapter)

APP

Why do I get black and white images instead of colour ones?The baby monitor has switched to night vision mode because the room where the baby monitor is placed is dark.If there is enough light in the room, the light sensor on the baby monitor may be covered or dirty. Make sure that this sensor is fully exposed to the light in the room.
Why does the app not notify me that the baby is crying?Check the Wi-Fi signal strength on the setting page of the app and it works best when it shows "Excellent" or "Good".
The sound threshold for notification may have been set too low. In that case, the app will only notify you when the baby produces a lot of sound. Open the app setting to set the sound threshold higher to ensure that you are notified sooner.
Perhaps you have muted your smart device, turn on the volume.
Check if you have activated the notification function in the setting of the app.
Check if you have activated the notification function in the setting of your smart device.
Check if you have viewing rights as a guest. The notification function is disabled for guest users.
Why can't my partner and I connect to the baby monitor at the same time?The secondary admin user does not need to go through the same connection process again, you only need to invite your partner as an admin user through the app.
If you do not wish your partner to have full access, invite your partner to login as a guest user. Access rights of guest users have limitations. Please refer to the ''Account management'' chapter for details.
Why can't I talk to the Baby Unit after pressing the true talk-back button from the app?Perhaps the true talk-back feature is active via the Parent Unit or your partner's app.The Parent Unit has a higher priority in using true talk-back function.
I am a guest user already, why can't I get video live streaming?Perhaps the administrator has temporarily turned on the Privacy mode. You should have received a notification about this.
The baby monitor may be offline. To receive a notification when the baby monitor goes offline in future, switch on app notifications from the app's settings menu.
Do I have to keep the app open to monitor my baby?No, the app can monitor in the background while you do other things.Switch on background monitoring from the Monitoring and Video settings menu of the Baby Monitor settings, put the app in the background by locking the smartphone or going to the home screen of your smartphone. You will be able to hear your baby's sounds even if the app is not open. Furthermore you can still receive push notifications.
Why can't I hear sound from multiple Baby Units/cameras?You can view multiple live steamings in split screen format on the preview page of app, but you can only hear sound from the Baby Unit/camera you selected.

APP

Is the baby monitor hacker-proof?We take every possible measure to prevent hacking and ensure the highest level of security. This includes issuing security updates as appropriate to maintain our standards. Please make sure that you always use the latest app software and baby monitor firmware. If you lose your smart device, factory-reset the baby monitor to remove any connections to it. You can also log in to the app from another smart device and delete your account. If you are the only administrator, all guest users will be disconnected from the baby monitor too.
I have lost my phone.How can I prevent strangers from viewing my baby?Log in to the app from another smart device and delete your account. If you are the only administrator, this will disconnect all guest users of the app from the baby monitor. You can also factory-reset the baby monitor to disable all connections to the device you lost. Long-press the On/Off button of the Baby Unit for 10 seconds to factory-reset.
Why am I not notified of the upgrades of the app or the baby monitor software?Maybe you have set the App Updates to manual in the App store or Play store. To ensure you are using the most up-to-date version, periodically check for updates. If an update is available, the App store or Play store will prompt you to install it.

1 Download the app. Scan the QR code or search for "Philips Avent Baby Monitor+" on the App Store or Google Play Store.

When your baby starts to push up and show signs of standing, it is best to lower the mattress to the lowest position. We recommend using the wall mount for the mattress in lower positions.

Avoid mounting the baby unit over the short side of the crib. This will limit your view of the baby.

Active/awake In bed: 3.1min

Sleep sacks, bedding, and patterned clothing are excellent for use with this baby monitor.

Active/awake In bed: 1% 3 mm

Try to avoid thick clothing and bedding of the same color because the baby unit uses contrast to detect movement.
