what is the difference between the monitor and a receiver for these cameras?
1995907
The monitor displays the image from the receiver. The receiver picks up the signal from the cameras and records on a SD card (optional setting to only record when there is motion). There is no monitor included in this system; I purchased a cheap TV and connected the Receiver to the AV input and it works great. These are installed in my grandmother's house and she has no trouble using them. The only issue we had was they only reach about 50 feet through walls.

In my experience, I just used an old computer monitor that I had at work. The system as I bought it did not come with a monitor. They're practically giving those away on Craigslist anyway if you don't have one. The receiver on this system writes to an SD card which can then be viewed on another PC if you wish. You will need an SD card reader if you don't have that already. You can get those at walmart or target.

The receiver records activity from the camera on a SD Card for purpose of review or saving data. Your existing TV may be used as a monitor. The monitor is live and has nothing to do with recording. This particular system is amazing. I would def recommend the DVD system.

The monitor is for viewing and the receiver is required for the camera to pick up signal from the camera. The camera system with the 7 inch monitor has the receiver built in. The 2 camera system (SVAT GX301-013) with the receiver requires a monitor/computer for viewing. SD card does not have to used unless you wish to record motion. If you do have a seperate monitor you can connect the system to your tv in the video and audio jacks and flip your tv to video to view only when you choose to do so or when not watching tv program. I connected a receiver to a monitor for daytime viewing in family room placed the 7 inch monitor in bedroom for nighttime viewing for my mother.

The receiver for your camera should have a yellow out connector. You might need a single RCA wire with male connectors on both ends to connect it to the monitor. And this monitor is picture only. you could hook some sort of powered speaker directly to the wireless receiver if you want sound.

110V power required and you need the matching uniden receiver. Check that camera and receiver are compatible versions.

This camera has a one channel composite (analog) video output (I believe it's a BNC connector. I'm not sure what inputs your uniden monitor has, but this will hook up to anything with composite video input.

If you look at the tech specs, you'll find that the CMOS cameras (D5000, D300S) have slightly more pixels (height x width) than the CCD cameras like the D3000 in each of the three sizes. The actual difference isn't huge, though.

I'm sorry, I cannot answer this question as the set of cameras I bought came with a receiver that just hooked up to my TV. I did not order this one, must have been a mix-up. Their customer service is pretty good, maybe they can help. Good luck.

You have the option for both on the monitor. My monitor can take up to 4 cameras, which we only have 3 in use. So I can put it on and keep on a specific room A B or C or put it on setting that rotates through each room. Love it!!

Hi These are color cameras Depending on the distance the receiver can get to impair quality to see black and white

The Lorex LW2110 comes with a receiver which pairs to the camera,you would want to connect the receiver with the antenna to a DVR or monitor so you can record or view the images.

I don't see much difference, to be perfectly honest. I can say that the Phillips monitor has been an absolute glorious experience with a picture that is better than most televisions that I've seen. It works perfectly for large computer projects and for watching shows/movies even from a good ten feet away.

Yes! This camera connects to a receiver. You need Uniden Guardian Advanced Wireless 7-Inch Screen Video Surveillance System with 2 Outdoor Cameras - Black (G755) by Uniden.

It only accommodates one monitor... Also, I'm NOT using a DVR. With a DVR, it'll probably supportmore than one camera.

You don't need to connect them to anything if your receiver automatically switches to backup camera when it turns on. I assume it is the red wires on the yellow video cable. Good luck! Mine worked until I drove through rain and it filled with water. I bought the Pyle one it works much better and lasted about a year.

I have two dell monitors - they don't have a built in web cam. But... I'm not sure about the 1740FPTT is what I have.

the camera just has a power cable that needs to be plugged it. the receiver unit has a power cable and bnc/rca out. you can plug it into a vcr, dvd-r, tv, etc. if possible i would go with wired. my camera is 26 feet away and the signal is clear but cuts out every now and then. if wireless is a necessity it does get the job done

The camera has a motion sensor, you can set the system such way that when motion is detected by the camera, the receiver unit makes a sound alarm, display the image and record what the camera is seeing .

My perspective on this is that they both perform the same function. It is a matter of where the camera display is located
