The unit supports up to four cameras, but you cannot buy additional cameras without buying the whole monitor set.

if you wanted to, you can hook only one camera. each camera works on a separate cannel. doesn't affect the system. you don't have any problem.

Yes you have plenty of choices in compatible cameras. Yes you can use split screen and monitOr all your cameras at once.

Yes. You can add at least 1 more camera (I have two cameras) and you can toggle between the two on the monitor. But, you can only have one monitor. I tried getting a second so that two people in two different rooms can monitor, but it only supports one monitor.

The system I bought will take 4 cameras. So, yes but I dont know if it has to be that same brand camers or not.

I have four cameras set up. The directions said you can add more. The screen allows 4 cameras to auto record on quad view. So if there are more cameras on the system you would have to select which 4 you want to record and disable the others. So far I like the system. It is perfect for what I need it for.

I do not think you can add additional cameras. I know that out of the box in as-is condition, definitely not. You may be able to hook up something though an output/input, but I am not even sure if it offers that on the back of the DVR - I dont have it in front of me right now to check. I's say your best bet would probably be to buy a system with sufficient cameras.

Yes, it's an 8 channel system but only comes with 4 cameras. You can add 4 more cameras.

no you can plug up to four cameras to one adapter. one adapter splits four ways.

Yes. if you have the system because this is only a camera my system is 4 cameras and a monitor with hard drive, the camera by itself it my not be EZ.

You need two - one on the camera, the other on the 580 and set them to the same channels. Very simple

This comes with 4 cameras so you'll only see 4channels. It allows you to have up to 8 channel so you can buy extra cameras n have all 8 channels showing

Hi Monitor2,Yes you can, and make sure to set up only one password for the system and name the cameras in order (Cam1, Cam2 etc...). You will see 2 cameras when you open the IP tools or IP Cam by clicking the 4 window icon.

From what I can tell you will not be able to do that. The main screen lists your camera's then you select which camera you want to view. Now if you had multi devices you can view each camera seperate.

Thank you for your question. You can only have 1 monitor synched to the 4 cameras. Additional monitors can not be added. We recommend adding additional cameras, not systems, as running more than 1 system may cause interference.

I have looked at similar DVR's with PTZ connections that also do not have multiple RS-485 inputs, so this one should not be any different. Each camera should be addressable and the PTZ control can be connected to each camera without confusion. You will need to connect them together in parallel.
