        Windows gets confused when you try to use multiple webcams of the same model because their drivers look the same to the operating system. The following webcam models have been reported to work correctly with multiple units connected at once: ADS USB 2.0, Watchport/V, and Logitech QuickCam 4000.

        If you have the above models, you can view our article on using multiple cameras with step-by-step instructions on how to schedule multiple devices in a cycle -

            Yes, you can use multiple cameras from the same manufacturer and the same model.

            The names of the cameras will be listed along with bracketed numbers ([1], [2], etc.).
