Can I plug this to my PC and watch the cameras while using my computer?

All our DVRs are like standalone computers, so you SHOULD NOT to directly connect them to your computer.You will instead need a VGA or an HDMI monitor with a VGA cable or an HDMI cable respectively.A TV set should be fine, although a monitor is still preferable.

It has an HDMI output and a component output. If you have an HDMI slot on your computer that can receive it will work. I do not know of a laptop that has a receiving HDMI input, only an output. If you are referring to a computer not a laptop then you should be able to get the appropriate hardware to make it work if it does not already have it. Most newer computers have the option to install an HDMI input to receive tv channels etc. from other sources like satellite receivers. Good luck!

Yes you can, I have mine running separately on a table next to mine, but you could run them that way.

You need a cam capture card or USB dongle.. Or some other way to input video into the computer. This has a yellow video and red audio RCA connectors.

The camera doesn't connect to directly to the monitor. It connects to your wireless/wired network, so as long as whatever software you choose works on your computer and is compatible with camera you should be ok

Hi, You can directly connect the camera to your TV to view. Or you can connect it to a PC, via the USB DVR device ( not included). You need buy RCA cables and power supply separately since they are not included.

Yes. If the webcams are in proximity to the router, then you can have a wired connection. If your webcams are wireless then of course there should be no reason to purchase this unit.

I hooked mine up directly to the monitor for my PC so that I just use the source button to switch between the 2 inputs. You really dont even need a PC to use this you just need a PC monitor to view the cameras. Even an older monitor would work. But if you do hook it up to your PC from what I read in the manual it gets connected through your internet modem and your computer reads it from there after you download a Driver for it. It does look simple to connect them but I dont see a reason to hook it to your PC unless you are planning on accessing it from a phone or tablet.

Yes, but it will require an application called ISPY or Similar, http://www.ispyconnect.com/You do not need the login /password to get stream from the camera, just user the cameras IP address and add this to url Example http://192.168.1.168/img/video.mjpeg

You can watch what the camera is monitoring via Skype from any computer, essentially it is a seperate feature. The monitor has to be in range of the camera and does not work off of SKype.

You should be able to plug it in any USB port on your desktop or laptop. The computer will ask you what you want to do. Just open files and search for the video that's on the disk.

It can be plugged directly into a TV/monitor with one of those yellow RCA composite video cables. I don't know about downloading video onto a PC as PCs generally don't take those composite video cables. I did find a cheap SD card based DVR that I'm going to try and hook it up to. BTW it's definitely not 500 megapixels, shoots quite grainy video but still a good deal for the price.

Simply connect the USB cable to the camera then connect it to a USB port on your PC.

Yes if your PC is cable ready. You can check with with WMC Cable Adviser plugin.

Yes, provided you have access to a high speed router in the room or in the facility, you will need an Internet connection and a PC in the room. You will plug the camera into an electrical outlet and from another outlet you will need to plug the receiver into an outlet, then to your router and PC. It is quick and easy to do once you have these connections. Then you can view the camera live on a smart phone anywhere and also record a few weeks of video onto the PC. The app is free and there will be no monthly charges other than the Internet connection Good idea, IMO

You can, but you should be sure that the port on your laptop is a video OUT and not video IN. Check your manufacturer specs to be sure.

You can connect the camera directly to a PC or laptop using the included ethernet cable. The ethernet interface on the PC will need a static IP address. You can then use the IP Camera search tool to configure an IP address on the camera which will allow you to open a web browser to continue configuring the camera and record video if you want.

No it only has one Ethernet port and 16 cctv connections. For IP cameras you might want to look into an NVR
