BaBaLou welcome to the boards...
I use 3 Astak cams and there are a couple of ways you might do this. First would be to replace the lamp module with an appliance module. The Appliance modules will act as an On-Off for the cams.
I have all my cams powered up 24/7 and use a video switch to view the one I want. I also have a DVR card in the computer and software to record each cam and view them within that software. By the way all my cams are hard wired.

But I do wonder does using multiple connection of wired and wireless input into a PC. can you use two or more VA11A at once or using a Y input is just as effective. just Cheaper. but still need to switch module on and off then only to view one at time? Is other software other than AHP capable of seeing multiple connection even at the same time or is AHP the best one to have since it seems to do it all so far? Thanks
I have not tried 2 VA11A's but I don't think you can. Seems I did read somewhere here on the boards that it was tried and didn't work. I use "Y" connectors all over the place rofl.
As for other software I use the program that came with my video capture card/DVR and it works good. Puts 4 cams on the screen all live at once. I use the "Y" connectors to feed the video into a switch, then the VA11A and then to APH. They do make 4, 8, 16 and 32 channel cards.
