Angelcare AC401 Questions & Answers

Angelcare movement monitor states " senses movement". Does this movement include breathing? Might sound like a silly question but if you have a new born and they are fast asleep then they won't be moving as in wriggling around. Want to clarify if the " movement" covers breathing in and out?

Thanks

Hi. Can a AC601 monitor work with the AC401? I have tried to link up the AC401 sensor pad with the AC601 monitor, but it doesn't appear to be compatible. Please advise?

can we use Angelcare sound and movement monitor for 7 years old kid?

Hii. How much should a baby way in order for the monitor to work?

I have purchased a brand new AC401. When set up without batteries in the nursery unit, it works perfectly. However, if I put AAA non-rechargable batteries in the nursery unit for backup incase of power failure the nursery unit starts to heat up. Within minutes of being turned on and connected to the mains power the temperature display on the parent unit went from 22c to over 30c, but the actual room temperature did not change. So the nursery unit was heating up. After I removed the batteries, it cooled down to correct room temperature. Is the unit faulty?

Does anyone know which way the sensor should be installed. The writing stating - this side up - is on the white side of the sensor however, after reading the manual is states that the logo (blue side) should face up. The instructions on the sensor contradicts whats written in the manual. Any help would be great thanks.

Hi, I bought a Angelcare monitor AC601. However, it is not transmitting any sound. I have tried all troubleshooting suggestions, still no luck. How do I go about getting this unit tested? Based in South Africa and bought the unit from a local pharmacy.

Hi I purchased a angelcare monitor module Ac601 and plugged it in yesterday. The first day home from hospital. I checked everything twice and tested the pad without baby on it, the alarm works. But that's the only thing that does work. There is no ticking noise and it is not communicating with the parent unit . Surly there is something wrong here? What should I do?

My angelcare mat is not picking up movement but no alarm is going off like it’s meant to. Mqqy daughter is in my room so I can hear her breathing but why has this stopped working correctly? I only purchased it in febuary so it really shouldn’t be having issues.

Is one pad sufficient for a cot?

Hi guys. Can you please tell me if the sensor pads purchased with the AC401 unit are compatible with other Angelcare monitors. Cheers - Matt

Hi there. Our AC401 worked fine a couple of days ago. All of a sudden it does not pick up the breathing pad or broadcast sound. Setting are as they should be. Batteries are new and charged. I have resynced the units. And tried different channels. When you switch it on it connects, shows the channel and temperature. But no broadcasting. Any help?

Where do you put the main unit as I’m worried as my daughter has put it in the bassinet just up from bubs heads he is 2 weeks old.

We used this monitor fine for a couple of years. It worked well, and we were very happy with it. - year later we’ve stared using it again, and the batteries will not hold charge. I’ve swapped the brand new batteries (same battery type - NiMH, and reputable brand), and still have the same issue - I only an hour out of the monitor when off it’s cradel. This is therefore clearly an issue with the monitor rather than the batteries. does any one know if there is a way to resolve this?
