I generally just use mine as a combined unit, sort of a mini laptop, although this does limit the functionality of the cameras.

No, if: 1. You are using 9 or less cameras on the same network. These cameras support SD card recording, and the browser plugin and mobile app allow simultaneous viewing and management of up to 9 cameras. 2. You are using more than 9 cameras, but don't need to centrally view and manage all of them at once. Each camera can also simultaneously record to a designated computer on their local network, in addition to SD card recording.Yes, if: You want to centrally view and/or manage more than 9 cameras on the same network, or view/manage cameras that are on separate networks.

The cameras are configured individually. You can copy the settings between cameras however.

I have two cameras. You can set it up to automatically switch if you like or change it manually.

Yes it can. You must use their software which will support up to 16 cameras. The software must be running on the computer. Unfortunately these type of cameras are proprietary so they cannot be mixed/matched with other brands. Their camera, their software, etc.

if you used them on multiple cameras with multiple units you are going to need multiple units to capture 1 per every camera. You set up a wireless network between the camera and the unit you are using laptop or tablet

No, you can switch between each camera. Or you can put it on scan mode, which cycles between cameras I believe every 10 seconds or so

On this system there is only input for 4 cameras (channels). If you think you will need/want more cameras get the DVR with 8 or more camera/channel inputs.

I only have one, but it is set up to accept up to four cameras. It can only record one video feed at time.

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.

Foscam maybe, I am not sure. There is an app on IOS called Live cameras that will give you multiple screens and control over all your cameras.

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, the out-of-the-box license will allow you to monitor up to 1 camera only. You need to buy more license if you have more cameras to monitor.

The camera can be used with up to 4 cameras. There are useful youtube videos which help in getting the additional cameras to communicate with the main base.

I am sorry you can't. Only support 2 analog cameras and 2 ip cameras at the same time.

Yes, there are no issues with installing additional cameras. Your network bandwidth would be the determining factor.
