Introduction

About the baby monitor

The baby monitor system helps you keep an eye on your baby from anywhere in your house. The system consists of a camera unit and a monitor unit that are connected wirelessly using DECT technology, which provides secure, stable, and clear sound and picture without interference from microwave ovens, wireless routers, etc.

The monitor unit features a compact design and a long-lasting rechargeable battery that provides hours of use on a single charge, and the camera unit features a camera, speaker, and microphone that let you see, talk, and listen to your baby. The system's smart features give you peace of mind to go about your day. For example, you can use auto lullaby to play a lullaby automatically when your baby is crying, and smart notification to display notifications on the monitor unit when your baby wakes or cries.

Information about sensor features

The camera unit has 3 sensor features: a visual sensor used for motion detection, a temperature sensor, and a sound sensor. Please read the following information about each sensor before deciding where to install the camera unit.

warning Note:

  • The camera unit's sensor features are not designed to be used in situations that require high reliability. We do not recommend use of the sensor features in these situations.
  • Panasonic takes no responsibility for any injury or damage caused by the use of the camera unit's sensor features.

Using visible light to detect motion

The camera unit can detect motion by recognizing changes in the brightness of areas that are visible to the camera unit.

warningNote:

  • The motion sensor does not function during and for 5 seconds after pan/tilt operations.
  • Movement may be incorrectly detected when the moving object and the background have similar colors.
  • Movement may be incorrectly detected when there are sudden changes to the overall brightness level, such as when lights are turned on.
  • Detection becomes difficult when the image is dark.
  • You can also adjust the sensitivity of the camera unit's motion detection feature and select which areas of the camera image are monitored for motion detection.

Temperature sensor

The sensor is triggered when the set temperature range is exceeded.

warning Note:

  • The temperature sensor may not detect temperature accurately if the camera unit is exposed to warm or cool breezes from heating/cooling systems.
  • If a power failure occurs or the power is disconnected, the temperature will not be accurate for up to an hour.
  • You can adjust the temperature setting of the temperature sensor.

Sound sensor

The sensor is triggered when the set sound level is exceeded.

warning Note:

  • The sound sensor does not function while the camera unit's lullaby feature is playing a lullaby.
  • The sound sensor does not function during and for 5 seconds after pan/tilt operations.
  • The sound sensor may not function as desired when the camera unit is placed in noisy environments.
  • You can adjust the sound level setting of the sound sensor.

Information about night vision mode

The camera unit features an array of infrared LEDs that light automatically in low-light conditions, allowing camera images to be viewable even when the surrounding area is dark.

warning Note:

  • When night vision mode is active, camera images are displayed in black and white.
  • If the camera unit is installed in front of a window and points directly at the window, images may be poor when night vision mode is active.

Connections

Connections

  1. Insert the AC adaptor plug firmly into the DC jack.
  2. Connect the AC adaptor to the power outlet.
