LCD ON/OFF mode – LCD is always on and video signal is transmitting continuously, sound is transmitted to parent unit only when baby is making noise. You can choose in main menu how long the LCD stays on before the LCD turns off automatically (default is 30 seconds). Advantages: Gives you opportunity to check the baby (visually) even if there is no noise activating the camera/baby unit Disadvantages: When LCD is activated, video is transmit- ting continuously which is increasing both battery consumption and radiation. Use this mode in as short periods of time as possible. VIDEO VOX mode - LCD display is activated and is transmitting both video and sound when baby is making noise Advantages: Gives you an effective battery consumption combined with an extra visual warning from any activity from the baby. Disadvantages: If there is a lot of noise coming from the baby (or if baby unit’s microphone is set too high), the LCD display will be activated often which leads to increased battery consumption and radiation. How does the different modes work? AUDIO ONLY mode – LCD display is off, when baby is making noise, only sound is transmitted to parent unit Advantages: Reduced battery consumption and radiation to a minimum. Provides the maximum audio range when needed. Disadvantages: Less visual warning (no LCD) when there is sound from the baby.10 Turn on and adjusting the temperature alarm (upper and lower limit) Prerequisites: Parent unit must be turned on Touch sensitive buttons must be activated (are activated / deactivated by ON / OFF button) Parent unit: Press and hold the (•) button for 2 seconds to enter the menu Parent unit: Use the (-/+) buttons to select TEMP ALARM in menu.

How to avoid (turn off) OUT-OF-RANGE alarm when changing from using one or more baby units with a single parent unit Prerequisites: Parent unit must be turned on. Touch sensitive buttons must be activated (are activated / deactivated by ON / OFF button) When the parent unit is connected (paired) with more than one baby unit, the parent unit will constantly search for signals from all connected baby units. That means if you pair two baby units to your parent unit but decide to use just one of one them (by turning only one BU on), the parent unit will activate the OUT-OF- RANGE alarm indicating that it has lost contact with one baby unit. Parent unit: Press and hold the (•) button for 2 seconds to enter the menu Parent unit: Use the (-/+) buttons to select BABY SETTINGS in menu. Conrm choice by pressing (•) button. Now choose RANGE ALARM and conrm choice by pressing (•) button. Now use the (-/+) but- tons to choose whether range alarm should be ON or OFF. Conrm choice by pressing (•) button. ENGLISH

If you would like to change range alarm settings on a different baby unit, then you need to change the number to the right of BABY (showing BABY 1 in below picture). NOTE! To avoid the possibility that parents forget to activate the out-of-range alarm again after it has been disabled, the out-of-range alarm is automatically activated after the unit is turned off and on again. We do not recommend turning off the out-of-range alarm when the parents will not be notied if parent unit loses contact with baby unit. There are several reasons to parent unit loses contact with baby unit; 1) units are outside communication range, 2) baby unit is turned off intentionally or 3) baby unit is turned off without purpose (e.g. by empty battery).15 Flip display image 180° Prerequisites: Baby unit must be turned on Parent unit must be turned on Touch sensitive buttons must be activated (are activated / deactivated by ON / OFF button) Parent unit: Press and hold the (•) button for 2 seconds to enter the menu Parent unit: Use the (-/+) buttons to select DISPLAY in menu.

Release the button to reopen communication from baby to parent unit again. You can select which baby unit you would like to talk to by pressing the (BU#) button until the desired baby unit is selected. Changing between baby units in standby mode (no transmission of sound or image*) Prerequisites: More than one baby unit is paired and within communication range to parent unit Baby unit must be turned on Parent unit must be turned on Parent unit: Press the (BU#) button to select from which baby unit you would like to see information about temperature, battery status and signal strength (signal strength only possible to see in LCD ON mode).

• Note! When using (BU#) button in LCD ON mode, you will choose which baby unit to receive video (image) from (only video, no audio will be transmitted while in stand-by-mode).16 ENGLISH Turn on/off key tone Prerequisites: Parent unit must be turned on Touch sensitive buttons must be activated (are activated/deactivated by ON/OFF button) Parent unit: Press and hold the (•) button for 2 seconds to enter the menu Parent unit: Use the (-/+) buttons to navigate (up/down) and select KEY TONE in menu.

Changing between baby units in transmit mode Prerequisites: The units must be paired and within commu- nication range Baby unit must be turned on Parent unit must be turned on More than one baby unit is transmitting sound/image to parent unit simultaneously Parent unit: Press the (BU#) button to select from which baby unit you would like hear sound and see image from (in addition to temperature, battery status and signal strength). When sound is transmitted from baby unit to parent unit, a LED diode above the LCD display on parent unit will be lit constantly. There are four LED diodes with different colours (blue, green, red and white). The colour of the LED diode indicates which baby unit that is currently transmitting sound. If more than one baby unit is transmitting sound at the same time, one of the LED diodes will be lit constantly, while the other LED diodes will be ashing. A LED diode which is ashing indicates the baby unit is receiving sound from baby but cannot be heard in the parent unit’s speaker. A LED diode lit constantly indicates the baby unit which is transmitting sound and image (only audio in audio mode) and can be heard in the parent unit’s speaker and viewed in parent unit’s LCD display (only audio in audio mode). If all baby units transmit sound simultaneously, the sound/image from baby unit no. 1 has priority over baby unit no. 2, which again has priority over baby unit no. 3 and so on.

Parent unit: Use the (-/+) buttons to select LCD AUTO OFF in menu. Conrm choice by pressing (•) button. Now use the (-/+) buttons to adjust the time before LCD au- tomatically turn off while in LCD ON/OFF mode. Conrm choice by pressing (•) button The BC-8000DV video monitor is not designed to use as a surveillance unit to watch the child constantly with the screen enabled all the time, but rather to allow parents to check on the baby when needed by using the LCD ON/ OFF mode (when the child is sleeping). When the child makes sound, the device will nevertheless alert the parents in both AUDIO ONLY (Audio only) and VIDEO VOX MODE (the screen automati- cally turns on and sends a video with audio). In LCD ON/OFF mode, only the picture/video will be displayed without sound as long as the child is asleep while the sound is transmitted only when the child makes a sound which activates the microphone on the camera (baby unit). With its large battery, the devices are designed to be used in different places where socket is not available. The LCD ON MODE will quickly drain the batteries even though the batteries have high capacity. We recommend using the LCD ON/OFF MODE as little as possible to reduce radiation and save battery power and increase battery life time.

ENGLISH Alarms / Alerts «OUT-OF-RANGE» alarm/alert is activated af- ter approximately 30 seconds if baby- and parent unit is beyond communication range, when baby unit is turned off or if baby unit for some reason is unable to send signal to parent unit (e.g. if battery is completely empty). The sound alarm is activated, LCD-display shows «BOTH VIDEO AND AUDIO OUT OF RANGE» and the «LED level meter» light ashes. Note! If parent unit loses contact with a baby unit while it picks up sound from another baby unit, the “OUT-OF-RANGE” alarm will not be activated as long as sound is transmitting from one baby unit. Because the video signal has a shorter range than the audio signal, the video signal falls outside the maximum transmit range easily than the audio signal. When the video signal is out of reach but the audio signal is in range, the sound signal from the child can be transmitted and notify the parents, you will see the following notication in the parent unit’s display; «VIDEO OUT OF RANGE AUDIO STILL IN RANGE» «VIDEO OUT OF RANGE AUDIO STILL IN RANGE» displayed in different modes; AUDIO ONLY mode - Never (only sound is transmitted in this mode) VIDEO VOX mode - Only when sound is received from baby unit LCD ON/OFF mode - Always (LCD ON means that video signal is transmitted continuously) TEMPERATUR alarm sound is activated and text is shown in parent unit’s display if; the actual temperature exceeds the selected high temperature limit - display shows: BABY #
