TIPS AND WARNINGS
6.1 GENERAL:
•
Thoroughly read the user's manual and follow all indications.
•
Never place the baby unit or parent unit in wet or humid room or environment.
•
Ensure adequate heat dissipation; never cover the parent unit, the baby unit
and/or the power adapter(s) and never place them directly next to a heat
source.
•
Only use the supplied adapter(s); connecting a different type of adapter will
damage the electronics.
•
Make sure the adapter cables are free of any damage and ensure nobody can
trip or fall because of these cables.
•
Never dismantle the parent unit, the baby unit and/or the power adapter(s);
only qualified personnel is authorized to do so.
6.2 INSTALLATION:
•
Only connect or disconnect the power adapter to/from the baby unit or parent
unit when the power adapter is removed from the wall socket.
•
Never install the DVM-370 during thunder storms.
•
Never touch any non-isolated adapter cables, unless the adapters are remo-
ved from the wall socket.
6.3 RECEPTION INDICATOR / OUT-OF-RANGE NOTIFICATION:
•
In the upper left corner of the parent unit you can check the signal strength
received from the baby unit:
: very good reception
: good reception
: bad reception
•
In all cases, the images and sound are displayed with the same quality.
•
As soon as the parent unit loses the signal from the baby unit (out of range or
the baby unit is switched off), ' ' (no reception)) and 'Out of Range' will appear
on the display. The unit will also emit two beep tones every 10 seconds.
•
As soon as the parent unit is receiving the signal from the baby unit again, the
display will illuminate.
6.4 DELAY IN IMAGES AND SOUND:
•
The baby unit transmits the images and sound to the parent unit in digital
blocks. The parent unit converts these signals back to a recognizable image
and a comprehensible sound. Therefore, there is a small delay between the
moment of movement and making sounds and the display and sounds of the
parent unit.
•
Besides that, the sounds and images on the parent unit are not exactly simul-
taneous.
