@Mr. Anderson
How do you switch between the 2? Thanks
I'm using a dvi for my pc connection and the other on my monitor is the vga that i'm using to connect the dvr
can you use the same monitor for the swann dvr and your computer so you can switch between the?
Yes, you can use the same monitor for the Swann D1 DVR and a computer, but switching between them depends on the monitor’s input options. Ensure the monitor has multiple input ports (e.g., HDMI, VGA) and use the monitor’s input/source button to switch between the DVR and the computer.
