Intended use

The baby monitor serves to monitor a baby/child in a room. The camera transmits audio and video signals from its current location to the monitor. The monitor may only be installed indoors. Any other use is considered unintended use.

SWITEL BCF 817 - Intended use - 1

The use of this equipment does not substitute personal supervision, e.g. of a child. Users are not relieved of their personal liability.

SWITEL BCF 817 - Intended use - 2

The devices are not intended for medical purposes. Warning and signal tones from respiratory or heartbeat monitoring equipment are not transmitted.

SWITEL BCF 817 - Intended use - 3

Unauthorised modification or reconstruction is not permitted. Under no circumstances open the devices or complete any repair work yourself. All rights to claims for damages beyond the scope of legal provisions are excluded.

Medical equipment

SWITEL BCF 817 - Medical equipment - 1

Attention: Never use the devices in the vicinity of medical equipment. Effects on such equipment cannot be fully ruled out.

Installation location

  • Never lay the transmitter in a baby's/child's bed or playpen.
  • Ensure that the baby monitoring units and power cables are out of reach of babies/children, i.e. they are at least one meter away.
    • Babys/Children must not play with the power cables and devices. Risk of suffocation!
  • Pay attention that the power cables are laid so they cannot be tripped over resulting in the devices being pulled onto the floor.
  • Pay attention that the components are sufficiently well-ventilated when in operation. Do not lay a cushion, towel or such over the devices.
  • The installation location plays a decisive role in ensuring proper operation. Maintain a minimum distance of one meter to other electronic equipment, such as microwave ovens or hi-fi systems, since they could cause mutual disturbance.
  • Prevent excessive exposure to smoke, dust, vibration, chemicals, moisture, heat and direct sunlight.
  • Do not use the equipment in potentially explosive areas.

Power adapter plugs

SWITEL BCF 817 - Power adapter plugs - 1

Attention: Only use the power adapter plugs contained in the material supplied since other power adapter plugs could damage the equipment. Ensure access to the power adapter plugs is not obstructed by furniture or such.

SWITEL BCF 817 - Power adapter plugs - 2

Attention: When using the equipment with a power adapter plug, pay attention that the plug and cable are in perfect condition. Kinked or worn cable represents the risk of a fatal accident!

Rechargeable battery

Attention: Never throw the battery into a fire.

Pay attention to correct polarity.

Power failure

The camera does not work in the event of a power failure. Only the monitor works, as long as the battery was sufficiently charged via the power adapter plug beforehand.

Disposal

In order to dispose of your device, take it to a collection point provided by your local public waste authorities (e.g. recycling centre). According to laws on the disposal of electronic and electrical devices, owners are obliged to dispose of old electronic and electrical devices in a separate waste container.

The baby can go to sleep listening to gentle lullabies. The baby monitor system has 8 different melodies available which can be played on the camera unit. You can define whether the lullaby selected should be played just once or continuously repeated.

The lullabies are switched on and off via the menu; see Menu Structure, Page 62.

When a lullaby is being played, a note icon appears in the icon bar with the number of the respective lullaby.

Defining personal settings on the monitor

Various settings can be defined according to your personal requirements using the menu.

Battery alert signal

An acoustic alert signal can be activated to sound when the battery capacity is exhausted; see Menu Structure, Page 62.

Range alert signal

An alert signal can be activated to sound when the camera and monitor are no longer within range of each other; see Menu Structure, Page 62.

Display brightness

The brightness of the display can be adjusted to one of 5 levels; see Menu Structure, Page 62.

Backlight time

Use the “Backlight Time” menu option to define how long the monitor display should remain on; see Menu Structure, Page 62. For reasons of increasing the battery charge time, there are 3 different time intervals available after which the display automatically goes out (display turns black).

SWITEL BCF 817 - Backlight time - 1

If the display goes out as a result of this setting, simply press the Monitoring/Speak button in order to restore the image from the camera.

The equipment is provided with voice operated transmission (VOX) which remains active even when the display is switched off. As soon as the camera unit detects a sound above a minimum intensity, the display is automatically switched on again.

Sensitivity to ambient noise, voice operated transmission (VOX) and ECO mode

The baby monitor combines two modern technologies: voice operated transmission (VOX) and ECO mode.

The voice activation (VOX ^1 ) function causes the system to start transmitting automatically from the camera to the monitor immediately a voice or sound is detected. If no voice or sound is detected for longer than one minute, transmission is automatically interrupted.

SWITEL BCF 817 - Backlight time - 2

There is a slight delay in the transmission before the monitor can reproduce the voice/sound and picture.

ECO mode represents a special transmission technology. In ECO mode, the baby monitor system transmits with considerably reduced transmission power or radiation while simultaneously increasing the receiver sensitivity. Voice activation (VOX) is active in ECO mode. When sounds are detected, ECO mode is automatically deactivated. The display then transmits the image from the camera.

In order that the equipment can operate in ECO mode, you must use the "SENSITIVITY" menu option to define whether the camera should operate with a low, medium or high sensitivity; see Menu Structure, Page 62. Only when one of these three settings is set can the baby monitor switch to ECO mode following a short delay when no sounds are detected. The message "ECO Mode activated" then appears in the display. The display then automatically switches to show the image from the camera when a sound at or above the set sensitivity is detected.

A low sensitivity means that the camera reacts to quiet sounds. A high sensitivity means that the camera only reacts to louder noises. Select the setting required according to the ambient noise. Many ambient noises necessitate a high sensitivity.

SWITEL BCF 817 - Backlight time - 3

If the message "ECO Mode activated" appears in the display as a result if this setting, press the Monitoring/Speak button to restore the image from the camera to the display.

If the setting is "OFF", voice activation (VOX) is deactivated. The unit cannot switch to ECO mode.

Temperature display

The camera unit determines the temperature of its immediate surroundings by means of a temperature sensor and indicates it in the icon bar of the monitor display. Use the menu to select whether the temperature display and information should be in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit; see Menu Structure, Page 63.

It is also possible to activate visual and/or acoustic alert signals should temperatures rise above or drop below defined upper and lower temperature limits; see Page 69 (Temperature alarm).

Language

The menu guidance is available in 10 different languages; see Menu Structure, Page 62.
