8. SETTINGS
8.1 Audible Tick
This feature causes Hero to emit an audible 'tick' on each abdominal movement. To
enable the Audible tick, ensure that Hero is switched ON, and press the MODE/OFF
button (7) briefly (less than 1 second). To increase the volume of the tick, press the
MODE/OFF button once again for medium volume and again for high volume.
To turn off, briefly press the MODE/OFF button a fourth time – Hero will give a
louder beep.
This feature may be used with a baby sound monitor to enable you to 'hear' baby's
movements from a distance.
8.2 Rouse Warning
During monitoring, if no abdominal movement is detected for 15 seconds, Hero
vibrates gently in an attempt to rouse the baby. If abdominal movement resumes
within the next 5 seconds, the Movement Indicator Light (3) will flash red on each
subsequent abdominal movement as an indication that there has been an incident of
no movement for 15 seconds.
With the Rouse Warning enabled, after 3 such vibration/rousing incidents, the
Movement Indicator Light (3) will change to flash red every 2 seconds and Hero will
emit an audible beep every 2 seconds. This alerts you to the fact that your baby has
stopped all abdominal movement for 15 seconds on three occasions and has then
resumed abdominal movement after Hero has vibrated.
Note:- If abdominal movement does not resume within 5 seconds after a vibration, the
full audible alarm will sound and the Alarm Indicator Light (4) will flash red.
The Rouse Warning is automatically enabled each time Hero is switched ON. To disable
this warning, ensure that Hero is switched ON, and press and hold the MODE/OFF
button (7) for at least 1 second until a tone is heard and the unit vibrates briefly.
If you want to enable the warning again, switch Hero off completely (press both ON/
OFF (6) and MODE/OFF (7) buttons simultaneously), then switch it ON again (the rouse
warning is enabled by default when Hero is switched on).
