Is it possible to leave the video screen on without any movement or sound from a baby?

I have found using a white noise machine in the baby's room is enough sound to keep the monitor on....and turn VOX sensitivity all the way to 5.

No, it is not. I already knew it before to buy. I thought it would be a problem, but the microfone is very well adjusted, the video always turns on when necessary.

I don't really remember because We don't really take out or unplug this camera and monitor. Our daughter is 20 month old and during this time maybe all total we unplugged maximum 10 times when we are going on the vacation or at grandparents house.We always have pluged and we turn off just monitor with on/off button. If you take just camera in a other room with out cable screen goes to sleep in every 5 min.

Nope. The screen is like a vinyl sheet and not porous so the sound will be blocked.

Yes. But there is no way to turn it off. That is the mistake I learned, you can't film in silent or mute. Always on.

You can us the "scan" feature, where it shows each screen for 15 seconds and switches back and forth (we usually do this overnight so we can hear both kids). Or you can set it to view one camera and manually switch back and forth.

yes it does. There's a VOX mode that will turn off screen and sound until a sound other than white noise is detected. It's one of our favorite features!

You cannot turn this device off remotely. And it is not capable of differentiating between your motion and motion you want it to alert you to. I say, "Tiny, be quiet!" and walk over and tap the top which silences the unit for a couple minutes. An alternative would be to find a way to put a sheet of glass between you and the device - my unit doesn't seem to sense through glass - but then anything else on the other side of the glass would not be sensed either.

If you turn off the alarm then it won't sound if the baby should stop breathing so defeats the purpose of having it. Our babies always slept through the alarm which only went off when they moved off the area covered by the pad. Hope this helps.

Yes you can turn the video off and still use the sound. Then just hit a button to turn the video back if you need to. Great feature to help keep the room dark while sleeping. You can also control the volume and pan the camera from the video unit.

Yes! You can have the video on or off while you keep the audio on at all times...

Yes, you can omit the music/noise, and just have the movement with a very dim light behind it. This option is excellent for training a child to enjoy silence or when the baby is sharing a room.

I read that the audio comes off and on to make it less noisy. It is supposed to cut out background noise. It should come on when baby is making noise.

When in PEEP mode the screen goes off until a noise happens in baby's room. You can push a button and the screen will turn on and stay on for like 2 minutes at a time.

Yes, there is a little bit of a "click" sound when you manually turn it off and on, but nothing that should wake your baby up! I was able to edit my review to include a video where I turned it on and off a few times.

Yes. There is an audible alert if you lose connection to the unit in the baby's room, including going out of range.

Yes! Within the menu settings there is a "Mute" selection of either on or off. When mute is "on" there is absolutely no sound from camera operations.

You can push the top button video on/off button and it will blackout the screen but you can still hear baby, while on the charger.
