Can you use the additional camera as a replacement or do you have to have the main camera that came with the monitor to use the additional?

Yes, you can use this as a replacement. You'll still need to sync it with your main unit though (see instructions inside the box)

You have the option for both on the monitor. My monitor can take up to 4 cameras, which we only have 3 in use. So I can put it on and keep on a specific room A B or C or put it on setting that rotates through each room. Love it!!

I do not think you can add additional cameras. I know that out of the box in as-is condition, definitely not. You may be able to hook up something though an output/input, but I am not even sure if it offers that on the back of the DVR - I dont have it in front of me right now to check. I's say your best bet would probably be to buy a system with sufficient cameras.

Order another camera! Unfortunately (Or fortunately) it's a cheap camera and parts will break on it. You can use the other camera as a parts camera . Also, you can always so some interesting experiments with extra parts! However, if you're crafty you can probably fashion a couter knob out of something simple like a screw, a pin, a guitar knob, etc.

I don't know.. I would hope the cables come with the additional camera. I want to add some myself.

Yup! You'll need a monitor to configure it, but after it's configured it can function as a primary monitor.

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.

No. since each monitor has its own code and with that code the monitor pairs the camera.so one code one camera. Although you can use 2 monitor with their respective cameras as they arrive in the box.

I'm not sure. Contact lorex. But I bought this unit because our monitor charging port broke after a year. I wanted extra cameras for the one we had so i opted to just buy this new one for to replace te old monitor and add additional cameras. I have linked this new one to our old cameras (so now we have a total of three cameras- 2 old,one new) with no problems.

It depends what you click on and order. I got the monitor and one camera and bought a second camera separately. Connect the receiver to a computer with an internet connection using the included USB cable, and start viewing live video on your PC, Mac, compatible smart phone, tablets, and Wi-Fi/3G/4GLTE devices. Lorex is awesome. This is the second system I bought.

We added an additional camera to the Best View Monitor and it works great. Camera/ Model no. 28074 is compatible. On scan mode it will flip every 8 seconds between cameras. Best of luck.

You need to buy extra video cable as monitor don't supply long cable except a foot long

Yes. This is the camera only. You'll need some means of displaying what the camera sees.

This is not a stand alone camera. I have Lorex LH014501C4F already installed (I did install it myself but know of others that could not and had to hire someone to do it). With that said...installing this camera as a replacement to one already installed is simple. 2 cables (imposible to confuse as they are different shape) and a few screws to mount it to the wall. Best wishes

Yes you can. I have one set up with a DVI cable as my main monitor and the secondary monitor is set up using a VGA cable.

You dont need to buy an additional cable, as one is provided. If you ever break the ibcluded one you could replace it, that's what cool about it
