6 Troubleshooting

Warning

Risk of electric shock. Never remove the casing of the

monitor.

To keep the warranty valid, never try to repair

the monitor yourself.

If you have problems using this monitor, check

the following points before you request service.

If you still have a problem, register your monitor

and get support at www.philips.com/support.

Cannot connect the monitor to a Wi-Fi

network (the monitor light is blinking amber

or green).

• If the monitor blinks amber, you can set-up

the monitor again - please repeat '3 – Set-

up' of this user manual.

• If the monitor still does not work or is

blinking green or amber, you may need to

reset the monitor by pressing the reset

button with a thin object (i.e. paper clip)

on the back of the monitor, hold this for

20 seconds. After that, repeat 3 – Set-up of

this user manual.

• Philips In.Sight supports general WEP, WPA

and WPA2. Philips recommends using

WPA or WPA2 as these are safest Wi-Fi

security settings. The Philips In.Sight does

not support WEP Sub Key 2, 3 , 4. Please

change your router settings to WPA or

WPA2 if you are not able to connect, refer

to your router’s user manuel.

• To improve wireless performance, avoid

using a Wi-Fi channel that is heavily used

(e.g. channel 11) or has overlap with a

nearby other Wi-Fi network.

• Keep away from potential sources of

interference which may affect Wi-Fi signal,

such as microwave ovens.

• Unlike legacy solutions, In.Sight does

not require port forwarding. There is

no risk from leaving ports open on the

network. In.Sight uses secure peer to peer

networking solution which provides a

secure, encrypted connection each time

your camera is viewed from a remote

location. To learn more about secure

connectivity with Philips In.Sight, visit http://

www.yoics.com. This method of networking

will work with most standard router

settings and is also typically compatible

with most anti-virus and internet security

programs. On-line test diagnostic is

available to determine if your network is

compatible with these modern internet

applications: http://www.yoics.com/

What do the colored LED lights on the

monitor mean?

• No light: no power is connected to

monitor

• Solid amber light: Monitor is booting up

• Blinking amber light: Monitor is ready to

set-up, follow App on-screen instructions

(refer to '3 – Set-Up')

• Blinking green light: Monitor is connecting

to Wi-Fi network

• Solid green light: Monitor is connected to

Wi-Fi network and ready to use

Video streaming is slow or has a delay.

• The speed of login and getting the video

feed from the monitor highly depends on

the speed of the connection you are using.

• The Internet speed either from your Wi-Fi

network or 3G/Edge highly influences the

performance of the App. The faster the

connection speed, the faster you can see

the video from the Monitor.

• Philips recommends high-speed Internet

connection of 800kbps upload speed or

above for your Wi-Fi router.
