router setting.

After you have connected the parent unit and the camera unit, you can stream live video in local mode right away. You
can also set up connection between your HD video monitor system and your home Wi-Fi network for better connection
between the parent unit and camera unit. You can also download and install the
MyVTech Baby 1080p
mobile app to
stream video remotely. For detail, refer to the quick start guide included in your package.
HD video monitor setup for mobile access:
•
Set up Wi-Fi connection
•
Pair camera to mobile device
If you plan to install your camera unit in a designated
location, and use your home Wi-Fi network to
connect your video monitor, you need to test which
of your selected monitoring areas within the house
have good Wi-Fi signal strength. After you have
powered on your parent unit, you can use your
parent unit’s Wi-Fi signal strength indicator to assist
in checking. Once you have identified the suitable
location, you can install your camera unit. Adjust the
distance between your camera unit and the Wi-Fi
router if needed.
•
Depending on surroundings and obstructing factors,
such as the effect distance and internal walls have on
signal strength, you may experience reduced Wi-Fi
signal. To improve the Wi-Fi signal strength, adjust the
distance or direction of your parent unit. Check with
your parent unit again.
•
This HD video monitor is intended as an aid. It is not a substitute for proper adult
supervision, and should not be used as such.
Testing the sound level of the HD video monitor
•
For hearing protection, make sure the parent unit is more than 10 feet
(3 meters) away from the camera unit. If you hear any high-pitched noise
from the parent unit, move the parent unit further until the noise stops.
You can also press
- VOL
on the parent unit to lower or mute the noise.
•
Increase the parent unit speaker volume if you cannot hear the sounds transmitted
from the camera unit.
Positioning the HD video monitor
•
Keep the camera unit out of the reach of your baby. Never place or mount the
camera unit inside the baby’s crib or playpen.
1. Place the camera unit more than 3 feet (1 meter) away from your baby.

Notes
•
Check for reception strength and camera angle before drilling the holes.
•
The types of screws and anchors you need depend on the composition of the wall. You may need to purchase the screws and anchors separately to mount your camera units.
2.
If you drill the holes into a stud, go to step 3.
•
If you drill the holes into an object other than a stud, insert the wall
anchors into the holes. Tap gently on the ends with a hammer until the
wall anchors are flush with the wall.
3.
Align the wall mount bracket and screws with the
holes in the wall as shown. Tighten the screw in the
middle hole first, so that the wall mount bracket
position is fixed. You can tighten the other screw in
the top hole.
3.
Insert the screws into the holes and tighten the screws until only 1/4 inch
of the screws are exposed.
4.
Place the camera unit on the wall mount
bracket. Tighten the screw into the threaded
socket at the bottom to secure the camera
unit. Align the holes on the wall mount
bracket with the screws on the wall, and slide
the wall mount bracket down until it locks into
place.
5.
You can maximize your camera unit’s viewing angles by tilting the wall mount bracket.
Hold the camera unit, and then rotate the knob in anticlockwise direction. This will loosen the joint of the wall mount bracket.
Tilt your camera unit up or down to adjust to your preferred angle. Then, rotate the knob in clockwise direction to tighten the joint and
secure the angle.
