Can I use 2 monitors with one receiver? I'd like to monitor both children while sleeping from one parent unit.

Yes you can. You can set the receivers to be on the same frequency. You can do that with any set. More importantly, stay away from this unit. It sucks. We had to replace it within 5 months of moving our twins in their room. And we should have replaced it sooner, we just didn't want to admit it sucked as soon as the problems started. Crackling, popping, mixed in with blasts of static that could last for 30 seconds to 10 minutes. Fun when it happened at 3 am! Stay away from this!

The kids need to be sleeping in the same bedroom. You would need to have 2 receivers if they're sleeping in different bedrooms. Our kids sleep in the same room so we can use one monitor in the kitchen and one in our bedroom. It's been a great unit! Hope this was helpful!

I'm sure you can purchase an extra reciever. But I would stay away from this monitor, it cracks and pops non stop

Yes. You can add at least 1 more camera (I have two cameras) and you can toggle between the two on the monitor. But, you can only have one monitor. I tried getting a second so that two people in two different rooms can monitor, but it only supports one monitor.

These monitors will certainly work independent of one another. If the entire project is in mono, (and finalized in mono), I don't see a problem using only one. But if you are doing voice over any stereo tracks, you might want to consider monitoring in stereo. The monitors themselves sound great.

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.

Ginny,Hello. No you can't hear or see both at the same time, but it has a cool feature that will allow it to switch back and forth probably every five or so seconds. This is the third type of monitor we've had and it is hands down the best. Having the ability to pan around the room once your kids are in big girl beds is so nice. You can also talk to them through the mic on the parent unit. The picture quality is great and it has a thermometer. Hope this helps. Isaac

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.

I think you can but I don't think they sell the receivers by themselves. Just buy another unit and you will get another receiver and a monitor as well. That way if it works then you have some spare monitors when one quits working or use the extra monitors in other locations. You win either way you go in my opinion. Hope this helps.

Yes. You can have up to 4 different cameras on one monitor. I have a camera in each of my boys' rooms, and i can set it to watch only one if the other isn't in bed, or have it it switch back and forth on an interval. You can also set it to sleep after a minute if the baby is quiet, and then come back on if they cry or cough or make noise.

I do not think you could input two dameras on the monitor at the same time. However each camera has a transmitter and with an AB switch could be set up for same monitor. Cost for my set up was less than 100.00 if you have room why not systrm for each.

No, you cannot. But the monitor will switch between cameras depending on where it detects noise. I use two cameras - one in each child's room - and if both happen to be crying at the same time, the screen will cycle between them - just depends on who's the loudest

I don't think that would be possible. the monitor doesn't have multiple channels

No. One port is one signal. You couldn't even get two displays with one port and a splitter.

I'm not sure if you could hook up two of the systems simultaneously to one device if that's what you mean.

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.

You can monitor both channels. But if you want to communicate through the secondary channel you must switch to it. It takes two seconds.

You may run a single signal and split it to both monitors , that's how I wired mine.
