AnR Explained

How it works

The DXR-8 PRO is fitted with a sound processing chipset that detects repetitive sound waves in background audio and mutes it, allowing ONLY sounds made by the baby to be more pronounced. Appliances that emit a repetitive/constant droning sound are canceled out.

Intended purpose Activate ANR to filter

Active ANR also filters out the ambient static noise from appliances such as:

•  Fans
• Air purifiers
• Air conditioners
• Humidifiers
• Heaters

ANR also filters out the ambient static noise that is commonly found in baby monitors.

Usage with white noise machines

We recommend that the ANR be deactivated when white noise machines are used in the nursery. The sounds emitted from SOME white noise machines arm surprisingly non-repeating sound waves. This may result in a distorted warping sound in the background from the monitor unit when white noise machines are in use near the camera unit. However, sounds made by your baby (such as crying, talking, and mumbling) are still not affected.

Lens Type

Lens Type	Images	Description
Aluminum Lens Hood (default out of the box)		Aluminum Lens hood covers to protect the camera lens. No special video effects. Recommended for normal settings.
Optical Zoom Lens		The telephoto lens zooms inward, resulting in objects appearing closer while enhancing the detail of objects at further distances. Recommended when the Camera Unit is a greater distance away from the crib.
Optical Wide Angle Lens (sold separately)		Zooms image outwards, allowing greater peripheral vision. Provides wide-angle vision. Results in slight distortion and reduced clarity. Recommended for room activity surveillance.

WARNING:

Troubleshooting

The camera unit does not switch on

• Ensure that the Camera Unit is ON (Power LED indicator shows a green light).
• Ensure the Camera Power Adapter is properly connected.
• There may be no power from the outlet. Switch to another electrical outlet.

Monitor Unit does not switch on

• The battery may not be securely connected inside the battery compartment. Reconnect the battery and ensure that the tab is firmly plugged into the slot.
• The battery may be depleted. Recharge or replace the battery.
• Ensure that the power button is pressed and held for at least 4 seconds.

Camera Unit loses link with Monitor Unit

• If the Camera Unit is too far away with low reception, move the Camera Unit closer to the Monitor Unit.
• Reset both units by disconnecting them from both battery and electrical power. Wait about 15 seconds, then reconnect.
• Large metallic objects, including doors, refrigerators, mirrors, filing cabinets, and reinforced concrete, may block the radio signal between the Camera Unit and Monitor Unit.
• The signal strength may be reduced when in close proximity to radio or electrical equipment, such as TVs, computers, cordless or mobile phones, fluorescent lights, or dimmer switches.
• The use of other 2.4GHz products, such as wireless networks (VViFi routers), Bluetooth systems, or microwave ovens, may cause interference with this product. Keep the Camera and Monitor Unit at least 5 ft (1.5m) away from these items, or tum them off if they appear to cause
• Pair the Camera Unit under a different channel.

No picture from Camera Unit

• Ensure that the Camera and Monitor Unit are both ON.
• The Camera Unit has not been registered to the Monitor Unit. Register the Camera Unit.

No sound from Monitor Unit

• Volume setting may be too low. Adjust to a higher setting.

The picture is black and white

• Night vision LED may be ON. Night vision mode operates in black and white.
• Tum on room lights to force the monitor out of night vision mode.

The picture playback is not smooth (choppy video with low frame rate)

• The Camera and Monitor Unit may be too far apart.
• Ensure that both the Monitor and Camera Unit remain at least three feet away from any routers or 2.4GHz Wi-Fi devices such as smartphones and tablets. Users may forget that they have a smartphone in their pocket when using the Monitor Unit or may place the Monitor Unit close to their smartphone on a bedside table at night. Maintaining distance between the Monitor Unit and Wi-Fi devices minimizes interference.
• Ensure that no 2.4GHz devices are located between the direct line of communication of the Monitor and Camera Unit For example, ensure that there is no smartphone between the Monitor Unit and the Camera Unit (regardless of the room in which the devices are placed).
• If the Monitor and Camera Unit is located on the same floor, position the antenna in the upright position. If the Monitor and Camera, Unit are on different floors (e.g. in a two-story house), position the antenna in the horizontal position.
• Change the Wi-Fi channel setting on your router. As per the instruction manual of your router, change the ‘Channel’ from “Automatic’ to “Channel 1″ in ‘Settings”.

If ‘Channel 1 does not work, try other channels.

• There may be interference with your Wi-Fi network, such as slow download speeds. Try positioning the Monitor and Camera Unit as far away from your router as possible. Avoid placing your router between the Camera Unit and the Monitor Unit.
• Ensure that nearby VVi-Fi devices are in the SGHz band, if possible.

Camera Unit power LED changes brightness

• This is normal. The Power LED indicator is set to dim when in the dark and brighten when ambient light is detected.

Nose (static, beeping)

• Battery power may be too low; recharge or replace the battery.
• Possible alarm ring alert.
• Possible out of signal alert.

Noise interference on Monitor Unit

• Volume setting may be too high. Adjust to a lower setting.
• The Camera and Monitor Unit may be too close. Move them further apart.
• The Camera Unit may be too far away and out of range. Move the Camera Unit closer to the Monitor Unit.
• Ensure the Camera and Monitor Unit is placed away from other electrical equipment, such as a television, computer, or cordless/mobile telephone.

The battery will not charge or there is no charge light

• Try the included spare charging cable.
• The battery may not be securely connected inside the battery compartment. Reconnect the battery and ensure that the tab is firmly plugged into the slot.
• The battery may be depleted. Recharge or replace the battery.

The temperature reading is not accurate

• Move the sensor further away from the Camera Unit.
• Ensure adequate airflow around the Camera Unit.
• Avoid placing the Camera Unit near a structure that radiates heat, such as a window or wall.
• Avoid placing the unit near heaters, air conditioning vents, and heat-producing appliances such as lights.
• Move the Camera Unit to a lower altitude to avoid the heat that rises to the ceiling.

Pairing failed

• Ensure that the Power Adapter is connected to the Camera Unit.
• Ensure that the Camera Unit is turned ON (Power LED indicator shows a green light).
• Ensure the PAIR Button is long pressed until the Power LED starts blinking rapidly.
• Try pairing to another CAM channel.

Video not clear with stagnant spots/marks on the screen

• The optical lens could be dirty. Smudges and dust on the optical lens can diminish sharpness and reduce video quality. Remove smudges and dust on the lens by using a microfiber cloth or a piece of lens tissue to wipe the lens surface in a circular motion.
