Adding the 2nd camera to your monitor system, how do you know which child is crying, making noise, etc.? Do both cameras show on the monitor at the same time?

No they don't show both at one time, but they rotate about every 5 seconds from camers 1 to camera 2. And it will keep goung to both cameras as long as they are both synced up. I also believe it will tell you on screen which camera it is but I'm not positive for sure, my kids are a little older now and we hardly use the second camera but they also share a room now and they didn't before.

You won't see both cameras on the same screen at the same time. The cameras will be labeled camera 1 and camera 2. You can have the monitors scan so it will change about every 10 seconds. That is what I do at night. Or you have the option of switching manually yourself. It's pretty cool, I love having one in each of the kids room :)

Not currently, the app only allows you to connect to 1 camera. It auto detects the camera when you open the app, so I don't know what it would do if it found multiple cameras. http://support.babyping.com/customer/portal/articles/687325-can-i-add-multiple-babyping-monitors-to-the-app-

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?

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

Another camera of the same make and model? Yes. I did that. I bought two sets of cameras and monitors. One monitor for the bedroom and one for my home office for when I was doing homeworks or papers (full time online student at the time). I also set up two cameras, one was set to channel "A" and the other to channel "B", from both monitors I could easily switch between channels at any point in time without much hassle at all. I loved it.

I saw the BNC,s marked one and two but I have never explored monitor 2. I have six small pictures all on one monitor, What I do notice that the more videos running at one time causes the picture quality to drop a lot and the monitor puts out a lot of heat possibly because so much information is passing thru all at one time. For what I am doing picture quality is not important, only that all sox videos are all running. Sorry I could not help much.Garry

I only bought this as a replacement camera and never used two cameras at the same time. Sorry to not be of assistance.

How does it monitor 2 rooms simultaneously? Will it flip back and forth? What happens if child 2 cries while the monitor is showing child 1? Can you hear them both?

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!

My monitor broke as well, but I couldn't find just a monitor...had to purchase a set with one camera (but I needed an additional camera anyways)

I haven't tried doing this, but if you attract one camera in front and one in back, you should be able to tap ( I believe it's the little green button on the side of the monitor). I also would use the camera with the antenna in front, so u should be able to check your front and back. ( FYI make sure both camera r turned on). Hopes this helps if not let me know I will be using my this weekend.Beth

No, mine came with just one monitor. I purchased a 2nd camera when we had a 2nd child. The monitor can scan back and forth automatically every 10 seconds between cameras. Or you can flip back and forth manually by pressing one of the buttons. Or it can remain on just one camera if you prefer.

No, you can't hear sound from more than one camera simultaneously. Depending on which monitor you have (I have the BB4325X), the problem is solved through the monitor's "scan" function, which cycles through all your available camera views for about five seconds at a time. For whatever view is on the monitor, the sound (or lack thereof) is what you would hear. The only exception would be for some models which present "quad" view which presents up to four views at once. For this quad view, no sound is offered. I believe that the reason this is is that 1.) it may be difficult to have all that consolidated audio streaming, and 2.) you really wouldn't know where the sound is coming from. The scan feature is what we use across our three cameras for our 3 year old and set of twins. Works great. Also, even on screen saver (where the screen goes dark), the audio cycling still happens.

You can not. I contacted summer infant's support staff and they said you CAN NOT add another camera to this system. This is what they said:"Thank you for contacting Summer Infant. The Connect Plus Monitoring system can only work with one camera. We do not have an additional camera for this unit. If more than 1 camera is added it can cause interference and the system will not work properly. We do have updated internet/Wi-Fi systems called The baby Touch Wi-Fi and The Baby Zoom Wi-Fi both of these systems will allow more than 1 camera. Please let us know if you need further assistance."

Yes!!! I have this problem as well! It's so upsetting because this is supposed to be a high quality camera. And I don't feel like spending $500 for a second camera. Have you found the solution for this? If you look at my YouTube channel: APurposeDeep, you can see that my first 2 videos were recorded with it and the quality is very poor :(
