Is it possible to have/use a second parent unit with this system? Thanks :)

Not too sure, I have not used other systems or a second parent unit with this product.

No idea... but probably not possible ... DECT technology offer 100% privacy (from Philips web site) so probably a encryption unique that cannot be duplicate.

You have to use the main unit. But you can blacklist the number at any time. Hope this helps.

I believe that it is a single user license. You should check the license agreement to what is allowed. I am not sure if it would let you install on a 2nd system. Sometimes it is allowed to account for someone using it at home or at work, just not at the same time.

It's not on a system. They are not connected in any way, which is unfortunate because you are pretty much guessing which one was rung first. Yes you can add more to them.

I don't think so, but I'm no expert on doing that. I was not very happy with the unit (for other reasons) and no longer use it.

Yes, the Powermate program is designed to deal with more than one unit. I've used it with two -- I haven't tried more than two though.

Hi Chris,Yes it does. This is a great all in one system. I have done it once and it worked for me. I hope this helps.

I have no experience with the other unit so I am unable to help with your question.

I'm still confused, and hoping someone can help. We have one of these right now, and with a 2nd child coming, I want to buy a 2nd one. I would like to be able to hear BOTH rooms on one parent receiver on the same channel. Is that possible? Thanks in advance.

Definitely would not advise doing that. As a standalone unit it works fine but unless you used a bit of engineering skills to place boards inside the unit ro attach the two units together, I suspect it would begin listing one way or the other after about a year. Very good product on its own, so far for us at least, but I'd suggest not trying to stack them.

We have two sets of the Philips DECT SCD590 monitors. The two sets of monitors work fine together in the same house, they don't interfere with each other and each baby unit only talks to the parent units it came with. We've labeled the parent units so we know which one is which. For those that need two parent units but want the newer model, you could just buy two and put both baby units in the same room to effectively have two parent units.

Someone else set my system up so I don't know how it was set up and don't know whether it's the same as this. Sorry! However, from the other answers, it appears it'll work..........

I bought a queen, so I can't swear to it; but mine came as two stand alone platforms that bolted together in the middle, so yeah, you should be able to set 'em up as two units.

Hi Randal, I'm not sure if you mean 2 base units or 2 monitors. I have one base unit and 2 monitors and have no problems at all using both monitors at the same time. I don't know if 2 separate systems with 2 different base units would cause a problem, sorry I cant help with that.

Great IDEA for a feature, but as far as I'm aware, the "baby unit" is always in the communication loop. However, as I think about this, it might be possible to lower the volume on the baby unit to the point it can't be heard in the nursery so the parents COULD talk on the other 2 units. It's late tonight, but I'll check this theory out for you sometime tomorrow & re-edit this answer so we'll know for sure. ***stay tuned*** ----------- Update 7/23/13: Checked for you this morning & unfortunately, the "baby" unit's LOWEST volume level is still audible. So, no, you can't communicate between the two "parent" units without the "baby" unit broadcasting the sound. Even though you can talk to one another, "baby" can always hear. Hope that helped you!

Yes, the parent unit is definitely portable. I take it with me to the backyard all the time!

Yes you can put multiple unit in same system as long as you keep the frequency/channel setting same on all unit.
