A:AnswerThank you for the question. Live view will allow you to view all cameras in one view. However reviewing events will require focusing on one camera feed at a time.

A:AnswerNight Owl is not able to guarantee compatibility with any 3rd party brands. Often, cameras of the same technology will function with our systems, but we make no assurances. We can only ensure that our products will function with compatible Night Owl product.
A:AnswerHi there,
We understand the confusion! The DVR has 8 wired BNC video ports, which connect to the included cameras. The additional 4 channels are available for Wi-Fi IP cameras that connect wirelessly through the Night Owl app and your network.
This allows you to expand your system up to 12 total cameras (8 wired + 4 wireless), giving you more flexibility if you want to add coverage later without running additional cables.

A:AnswerThank you for the question and happy to help. As we are focused on security and privacy, our recorder requires a wired internet connection as it is the most secure and gives the best chance for proper image resolution. You will want to invest in a proper length networking cable to connect to your router. Thanks, Night Owl SP Digital Support Team
A:AnswerThank you for the question. Our systems operate on standard 120V outlets and use varying power based on the settings you choose to employ. Varying levels of sensitivity for alerts, frequency of triggered events, and other settings will all impact consumption.
Thanks,

A:AnswerIt depends on the camera's surrounding environment. The system can be set to automatically overwrite or to stop recording when the hard drive is full.
A:AnswerThank you for the questions and happy to help as you evaluate systems. You have the option to run continuous recording or just event based recording. You can control this via the system settings. Depending on your settings the system will overwrite legacy data as it maintains current footage.
Thanks, You can save events as long as you'd like to but we advise using a USB flash drive to export important events for safe keeping separately on another drive.
