redalert 0 Posted October 10, 2012 I have a basic 8 channel Dahua DVR. I'm running 8 cameras via cat5. There is only one VGA output. Is it possible to split 4 channels to vga in order to view 4 channels on another display? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redalert 0 Posted October 11, 2012 Yes but I was thinking 2 independent monitors from the same dvr able to record and display the channels associated with each monitor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sinbad 0 Posted October 13, 2012 not sure about the Dahua DVR but some dvrs let you select which channels are viewed on the spot out bnc. then you can plug this to any monitor with F connector Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vector18 1 Posted November 5, 2012 Why not record all channels all the time and view all channels on both monitors? What is the scenario your looking for? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Numb-nuts 1 Posted November 6, 2012 If you know the model of your Dahua could you post an image of the rear of the DVR? (NO I'm not kinky about DVR derrieres) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
milkisbad 0 Posted November 7, 2012 See if your DVR has a CVBS (aka Video out) port. The DVR i'm familiar with can display a main monitor (the monitor where you can see the menu and setup) via either VGA + secondary (no menu) with video out (composite cable) or the other way around. Spot out for my DVR just shows a 1x1 screen so have to use the video out to see all the cameras 2x2 etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
