Hi i have a client who wants to have 3 displays (monitors) each showing 4 camera's.

I was thinking that it would be best to use 3 separate 4channel dvr's?

Does that sound right, or is there a way to do it with just one dvr?

as far as i see most dvr's can only output 1 channel to a display, either via bnc,vga,svideo..

But i dont see any that can have 3 separate displays?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Thanks everyone who has posted, i did not expect so much response, you guys are all great. As for working with the alarm, it is not a problem as its a new alarm which i am also installing nd am very comfortable installing/programing alarms as i have been doing so for many years.

(Joindvr..... I did not recieve your pm...

Once again.

Thanks,

Hi i was sondering if anyone could help me out in getting an idea of what i should charge to do an install job.

I have been installing dvr/security systems for a while now, but have neem just doing it for friends and family for favours.

I was now asked to do a job for a friend but a paying job.

It would be an 8 camera system, 6 camera's outdoor and 2 indoors.

Its in a commercial wareehouse, so i would have to run cabling to all 8 cameras, connect dvr to router for networking, and connect to existing alarm system for alarm triger,

Is there a basic charge per "run/camera" or should i charge per hour?

Any suggestions would be great..

Thanks in advance.
