can I use it to monitor my barn?

No, it doesn't work as a monitor as it a push to talk radio. If you just want to listen to what is going on in the barn, I would suggest a baby monitor. The transmitted unit would be set up in the barn and the receiver unit in the house to be able to listen to goings on in your barn.

As mentioned, this can not be a continuous transmitter; it does not have a provision for continuous transmit, AND it's illegal anyway. What it can do as a monitor is monitor the motion detectors offered by the same manufacturer. You do not hear sounds in the barn, only a canned voice saying "alert zone one" or similar.

I have three units. Two of them are in the house, the 3rd in my office above a detached garage. Two most distant unit are about 150' apart ... works great for two/three way communication.

Yes, you can use it to measure distance, pace and time. It doesn't matter if you are running or using your car or your horse, because it uses the GPS information to calculate the metrics. Good Luck!

No it would not be the right product for that situation. I would suggest a remote camera with monitor. Will be more $$

Not well. the problem with this product it is too powerful. Great for monitoring a garden. Not great for monitoring the front door. Unless you live at balmoral.

Pretty expensive for a baby monitor but you could if you wanted to. There are some pretty good "baby monitors" made just for watching your baby even at night. I would check Amazon under baby monitors. Now if you are planning on having just one camera watching the baby and the rest monitoring the rest of the house, then I don't see a problem, you could use this system for that very purpose.

You could definitely use it to see when motion occurs in your mailbox (i.e. someone putting mail in or taking it out. You won't be able to see if the door is "technically" open or closed unless you use the light sensor built in to the unit. Additionally, you'll want to make sure the unit is close enough to your house for the sensor to communicate with the rest of the sensors in your house.

Don't know. How many connections are at the barn? If 1 or 2 you may need only the access point with the power turned up a little.

Don't use this particular setup, this is more comparable to a very cheap and close range surveillance from vehicle option. If you are in a ranch and off grid I could advise some much better alternatives and similar price.

I guess you can, that is if you can ever get the dang thing to work. I never had any luck with it. I just ended up buying an IP camera and using my monitor when I wanted to see what's going on.

I would say no. The interface for using skype to connect to the cameras is inefficient and cumbersome. It is a fantastic baby monitor if you are onsite, not a good choice for distant monitoring in my opinion.

You have to purchase an iFit module. I think they are like $100. If you have a subscription, you should be able to use it for unlimited pieces of equipment.

It is supposed to work over WiFi, so you theoretically can view it anywhere. In practice, I had two different units and both were defective --- neither one was ever able to connect to a WiFi network, despite multiple conversations with tech support. So, at least in my experience, the answer is that you cannot monitor it at all unless you connect directly to the unit.

I use this device to watch my horses while being trailered or to see who is in my driveway

I beleive this would be an option, in my application I was able to connect remotely to my camera and control and observe as well as have the camera send via email or text as many as 6 images when motion was sensed. I used this successfully in my application and was very pleased with its reliabilty. Image quality was excellent and send/receive times were in the area of 10 seconds.

Yes. It would monitor any movement in the room. We have it on the porch and it even monitors a bird flying by.

It works both indoors and outdoors so it should work just fine in your barn. My sister uses it in her barn and feeding stables.

yes you can use monitor. You should have vga connector on the back of your dvr.
