Are there additional steps to pair the second camera to the monitor? I have used the monitor menu "pairing" and button on the camera, but doesn't work

No additional steps, but I tried many times. Please try to pair in different distances between the camera and monitor.

I have never tried to access the other menus. Or at least I don't remember as it's been a awhile. The camera defaults to camcorder once it's turned on. You might want to cycle through the menu a few times to see if you can locate the other commands that you're interested in.

If you purchase extra camera then you be be able to use auto scan feature which scans between the two cameras every 8 seconds. This auto scan feature happens automatically, not manual. However, you can manually switch to other camera view at any time. Volume will be heard for camera being shown on monitor screen at that time. Hope this helps. Overall a great monitor for the price.

On the cord of the camera is a very inconspicuous button you have to push while you are in the pairing time countdown. the button is on the widened are of cord. once it pushed pairing is very quick.

Though I've never tried I would think you could because the monitor can be paired with up to 4 cameras. For each camera you pair it to you have to sync them together though or it won't work....that makes me think you could have multiple monitors and cameras synced separately. There is no channel setting though & I've never tried it so I'm not sure.

Lori, it appears that the unit which you mention here does not have a monitor with it. The set up I originally purchased had a monitor with it which had the capability of running two cameras. These monitors can be purchased separately, and are normally not too awful expensive. You would do best to purchase at least a 7" monitor, as this will give you the best viewing area. Although most monitors are compatible with most cameras, make sure the one you choose is compatible with your camera. It should list the types of cameras it will support of the description of the unit. Hope this info helps. Don

There should be 2 VGA ports IIRC and an HDMI. Try it with a different monitor too!!

I did not buy the 2 cameras to just work with the 1 device but I am pretty sure when I was setting it up that it showed you the ability to have the 2 screens (1 main and 1 mini) for both video. We got a little $30 camera that worked amazingly well. (was going to have the same set up in 2 locations and have not gotten around to it yet)

There is no provision for a second camera. It has video out for a monitor, a power/usb connector, and a jack for hooking the optional GPS module.

I am having the same issue, as buying a new kit and keeping the old monitor as a backup or only buying a extra camera (for old model 02644)... did you get any ansers?

I hooked mine up directly to the monitor for my PC so that I just use the source button to switch between the 2 inputs. You really dont even need a PC to use this you just need a PC monitor to view the cameras. Even an older monitor would work. But if you do hook it up to your PC from what I read in the manual it gets connected through your internet modem and your computer reads it from there after you download a Driver for it. It does look simple to connect them but I dont see a reason to hook it to your PC unless you are planning on accessing it from a phone or tablet.

1. Turn both camera and monitor on 2. Click menu, then select the 3rd icon 3. Then select cam1 and hit the pair button under the camera before the timer expires I called Tech Support and they were very helpful!!!

Yup! Learned that after the fact-- I still can't get it to work with two cameras though. It only wield with one.

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 :)

Don, I don't know for certain why you're having the problem as I bought my second camera (520) a year or more after the first (575 with monitor),set it up and followed the monitors set up methods. According to the "book" I can add two more to the se up . Hopefully there is a secret in the book that could show the way. If no luck write again when I have more time to check the section of instructions I used. Good luck. Galen C.

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.
