• CREATING A VIDEO LIBRARY
When your Tomy PC Viewer starts up, it will default to monitoring live video from any selected Baby Unit. If no pictures
appear on the screen, see our PC Troubleshooting guide below or use the on-screen help section.
Click on the Record button to store treasured footage of your baby. Showing or hiding the screen icons will not affect your
recording. If left unattended, recording will continue for one hour and then stop automatically. While recording is in
progress, you cannot use the Baby Unit selector to choose another camera.
Any recorded video will be saved to your PC's hard disk, in a location and format of your choice. NOTE: no sound will be
recorded to your PC.
Click on the View video library button to playback the recorded video. The following screen will appear:
Calendar View

highlighted in orange. Click on that date to play the recorded video.

• USING MULTIPLE BABY UNITS WITH THE PC VIEWER
Full instructions on how to connect additional Baby Units are supplied when purchasing the
units from www.tomy.eu
With up to 4 Baby Units connected to a single Parent Unit, you can manually toggle between video
feeds on your PC screen by clicking on the matching numbered icon on the Baby Unit selector.
Switching between video feeds automatically
When you select Sound Activated Monitoring from the Parent Unit's Main Menu and you have more than one
Baby Unit connected, the video feed to your PC will automatically come from whichever Baby Unit detects
sound above the preset threshold.
• If only one Baby Unit is detecting sound above the threshold, video pictures will continue to be transmitted from that
unit until that baby settles or until another Baby Unit picks up sound above the preset threshold.
• If more than one Baby Unit detects sound above the threshold, the two video feeds (or more) will toggle at 3-second
intervals between those Baby Units. For example, if Baby Units #2 and #4 pick up sound above the preset threshold,
the video feed will toggle between these two cameras. Pictures from Baby Units #1 and #3 will not appear unless they
in turn pick up sound above the threshold.
• If all the babies being monitored are quiet (with their sound levels below the preset threshold) for a period longer
than 10 seconds, the video pictures on your PC will simply toggle between ALL connected Baby Units at regular
intervals until one or more of the babies stirs and trips Sound Activated Monitoring.
• IMPORTANT! If you choose to record video while in Sound Activated Monitoring mode, the automatic switching
between Baby Units described above will affect what is recorded.
Losing a connection
If a connection is lost with one or more Baby Units, the video feed on your PC will be replaced with
the 'Loss of Link' icon opposite, together with a number indicating which Baby Unit is affected. See
Figure 4.
To avoid the Loss of Link icon appearing on your PC screen when you turn off one of the Baby
Units, be sure to remove it from the Parent Unit's Main Menu (see below) so that the other
Baby Units can go on monitoring without interruption.
Removing a Baby Unit
Select the Add/Remove Baby Unit(s) option from the Parent Unit's Main Menu. Next, choose the number Baby Unit you
want to stop monitoring by moving the green circle using the Navigation Keys. Press the Mode/Enter Key and then select
the 'Remove' icon with the minus symbol. See Figure 5.
