With this system can I take the monitor with me when I leave home and watch my property!

No, the camera (which remains stationary) is also the transmittor, it sends the feed to the monitor which picks it up via antenna. It is an excellent system for in hone use. If you want to keep an eye on things while away, i would suggest getting a system that allows you to stream to an online server.

Hi Michelle, no it will only work around your house or yard. you would need to invest in a more expensive ip cam, then you can watch your property on the internet from your laptop anywhere you have wifi. i have one and its wonderful to be able to keep an eye on my property and they even take pics when someone comes in view

It depends on the brand of your DVR go to that website and log in and you should be able to view it there as well

No it is only for home use. Try ICAM since you can watch you home from anywhere with a smart phone or iPhone.

The user manual states the range is good up to 200', unobstructed.YMMV and it will, especially in a typical house.

No you can not take the monitor with you. I would not recommend this product there are products that you can use iPad or any Internet connection to view away from home

I agree.. more info please... is it useable without the monitoring service?

I believe it will. The system I have feeds into a Hard drive and then directly to a monitor. A mouse connects to the drive. Since it can network, windows could view. Problem I found was trying to hide all the stuff so would be thief doesn't throw a rock at the camera or take the hard drive.

No. It can be used as a stand alone system. You will need a monitor to view what has been recorded and to make any changes.

Not sure what your asking.... if the monitor has to be in the same place as the camera.... then there is really no point to the "camera"... right? They can be in different places... I have four cameras wireless going to one monitor, with no real issues. (I live in house about 3,000 sq ft). If you are speaking of WiFi hook up to be viewed remotely... then forget about it!!! its complicated, needs to be hooked to a computer at all times, the software given is .... not good! However... in conjunction with a security system... if your alarm goes off.. the monitor system (as mentioned) has time and day stamp... so you would have images of what happened at that time /date, and can be viewed (saved on an SD card) Not sure what your asking.... if the monitor has to be in the same place as the camera.... then there is really no point to the "camera"... right?

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.

It depends on the hardware setup you use. I have a proprietary "security gateway" box that is compatible with this item; the interface is via the web so a PC is not required in my case. However, if your security or surveillance system depends on local hardware/software, you may not have the same situation.

Yes. I've got mine to record 100% of the time, but also make a log in the system when there is motion. You can also pick which portion of the monitor to record the motion on, so you can block out trees and such so there are fewer false reports.

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.

You will need to plug into the monitor and it won't work that good. I sold it and moved on.

Yes, but monitor needs to be hooked up to new computer - where you are transferring all your data to so you can see prompts, etc.

you need a monitor to complete set up and to set configurations. you can then disconnect the monitor and view on your lap top

You do not have to monitor the system if you choose not to. Just keep in mind that it will not send the police it will only make a bunch of noise. But yes it is possible to use all of the z wave devices through the panel.

Yes, you may connect with VGA out or s-video out if your monitor has s-video connectivity

I purchased mine to work with my current security system, which I do pay for. Interested in hearing if others are able to use it, remotely, free of fees.

No ! You can only used the monitor supplied. However with the APP you can view your cameras on any media - computer, IPHONE, iPad etc

You can if your entire system is compatible with your computer. I needed a tech to implement the feature.
