Well, you can't connect just any camera, but you can connect a Banner PresencePlus. That's about it. What are you trying to do?

Could you connect a Cognix/ DVT camera communicating over Ethernet I/P to the Red Lion Screen and use programming features of the HMI to read registers from the camera?

Why not use a cheap computer and use IP cameras?

Many years ago, we used a very simple and inexpensive CCTV surveillance sytem for this type of application (to give an operator a view of a difficult to see process).

We went to the local Sam's club and bought a simple system for under $300 that would show up to four camera views on one screen. I think it came with two cameras, but was capable of selecting any one of four inputs, or all four in a split screen fashion.
