Additional cameras Which additional camera can I use with this video monitor?

Returning this product. I bought an extra camera only to find out I cant use them both at the same time (audio). So this is not a good monitor setup if you have multiple children. The extra cameras are only if you have 1 child and want to monitor him in different rooms.

Jason--did you ever find out the answer to your question regarding 2 cameras/1 monitor? I'd like an answer to that as it could be a deal maker or breaker.

If I have two cameras and one handheld monitor.. can I hear both babies in each separate room at the same time or do I have to switch between cameras to hear each room to know if one of the babies is crying?

Did anyone recently managed to buy an additional camera, and how/where? (likes of UK/Middle East, otherwise amazone USA) We need the extra camera for the 2nd baby shortly. Don't care about the sound splitting issue. Please reply!

You need to purchase the same one through the company. I just called the other day. $119 which includes shipping and handling.

Sorry, I can't offer any feedback, but I found it funny that someone else is having the same dilemna with the same 2 cameras. So I will also be intersted in hearing any input as well. Is the video capability really worth it?

We bought an additional monitor (2 yrs after buying the initial camera/monitor set) and it works with it too.

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.

All u have to do is to switch on the second/additional camera then it will be added automatically to your monitor. Then, for viewing it, on the backside of the monitor u will find a switch that has 4 clicks (1 to 4), the first camera will be assigned automatically to number "1". The second one will be for number "2", just switch it to number "2" and then you will be able to view the additional installed Camera :-).Best Regards,Khalid Aljowder

I use an Mac application called EvoCam. It gathers up the output from four different cameras and presents them all on one screen. It can actually handle more cameras than that; it can act as a web server; it does recording on a schedule, and so on and so forth.More generally, the right solution is going to depend on the underlying hardware and operating system. There are multiple applications with similar capabilities for almost everything.

I have 2 additional cameras ..... and I can use the 'intercom' feature on all 3 of them.

Yes you can set up any number of cameras. The display just shows no video where there are no cameras.

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

I only have one camera currently, but within two weeks I should have a second one set up. The only way I could imagine having both video displays on one monitor is to open up two internet/safari windows to Samsung's SmartCam website, accessing the different cameras from the two windows respectively, and arranging the internet windows side-by-side. Once I receive my second camera, I will test this out.

The unit supports up to four cameras, but you cannot buy additional cameras without buying the whole monitor set.

Yes, Another camera is available and the system is set up for 2 cameras You can have a split scree showing both cameras if you like but only one camera will record at one time . I think but don't remember the instructions.It should be ok because both cameras would not be activating if separated.

Yes purchase the 16 cameras. It will allow for extras in case one or more get hit by a voltage strike, or just burn out.

You can swap out the cameras that come with it. If it is an 8 channel DVR then you can add up to 4 more.

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.
