Connecting additional wireless cameras
The DVR is capable of receiving up to 4 wireless cameras. Note only the displayed

Achieving the best wireless signal
Depending on local conditions wireless signals may vary. A clear line of sight from the DVR
to the camera will achieve the best image. Walls, metals and other wireless devices
may impact the quality of an image. If too much interference occurs on any channel,
move the camera or DVR to another location or change camera channels.
Tips and Shortcuts

the most computers.
