just switch the camera by touching the camera icon with an arrow around it. if it is anything else but that then i don't know what it is.

I haven't seen that capability, as far as I can tell if one camera is recording the other is idle.

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

One thing to note is that both devices have to be logged into the same account. You can't have two people access the same camera if they are logged into different accounts.

There are two inputs. The cord is Red = Power, Yellow = Video1, White =Video2. However, I don't think you can toggle between the two inputs if both cameras are on. If I turn on only Video 1, then Video 1 displays. If I turn on only video 2, then Video 2 displays. If I turn on both Videos, then only Video 2 displays. There are only 3 buttons on the LCD and a short menu, but I couldn't find any combo to swap between Video 1 and 2 when they are both on.

Supposed to .. however, foscam doesn't offer additional cameras. You have to buy another set of camera and monitor.. Then you can use on monitor for both cameras or one camera per monitor .. I tried, but you can't have both monitors on both cameras .. as soon as you try to sync the second monitor, it knocks out the first >>>I feel, that with the information given to me in the details of this Item that you should be able to buy additional cameras .. but you can't ... They need to tell you that before you purchase .. because it says that it will work up to four cameras .. Im sure it would if you could get four cameras without having to buy the monitor also.. just saying !! Supposed to .. however, foscam doesn't offer additional cameras.

Yes it will only record when switching between cameras or just one camera, but not two at the same time.

It doesn't work! Only one of the monitors will pick up both cameras. The other monitor keeps showing "Out of Range". Do not buy two sets with the intention of having two monitors for viewing because only one monitor will work! :( I know because I tried to do this.

Get the kit with the controller (top module). It's easier to use and should support both of your cameras.

Look up software named SplitCam, download it, and install it. It is what I use and my camera always detects it.

I bought two also and the both work fine. The second one is with a friend so I haven't tested whether or not they operate on the same frequency. If that is the case, one photographer may trigger the camera of the other, etc. Make sure you have your camera set to deal with a remote triggering device and it should work fine. At least mine did with a Nikon D800.

It sounds like you need to just get a converter box that'll convert one to or from the other. They're usually available from most electronics/video stores.

I encountered the same problem.. it looks like you can pair the camera to only one monitor at a time. Rats.

i found that manufacturer says you can only use one system, but some user are using two system without problem. that's what i've found so far.

Just use any program, like iBooth that uses a Camera. Just plug it into an USB port, start the program an tell it to use the alternate camera. Hope it works.

the only thing I can think of is that one of the camera's don't work. Maybe you can return the unit for another one. good Luck.
