Note: Remember that the X26 is being powered by the TASER CAM, and as with any X26,
it must not be without power for an extended period of time (4 or more hours) in order to
maintain the integrity of the software and clock. If the TASER CAM is removed from a X26,
a DPM/XDPM should be inserted to keep the unit continually powered. The X26 (with
weapon software that supports the TASER CAM) will support older version DPM/XDPMs.
Using the TASER CAM
The functions and use of the X26 does not change with the addition of a TASER CAM.
However, there are a few points to remember:
• The TASER CAM will begin to record approximately one and a half seconds after
the safety is put in the up (ARMED) position and stop recording when the safety is
put in the down (SAFE) position.
• Do not block the lens of the TASER CAM. If the lens is blocked, “88” will flash on the
CID and the laser will flash. With a two-handed hold, the user might unintentionally
block the lens, particularly when wearing gloves. Note: The CID and laser also may
flash in conditions of extreme darkness even if the lens is not blocked. The TASER
CAM will still be able to record video if the infrared light is not covered.
• Hold the weapon as steady as possible while recording.
• Recharge the TASER CAM before the remaining battery capacity is under 20
percent.
TASER CAM PC SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
There are two main steps in the software installation process. You must install the software
first, and then install the drivers.
1. Do not plug the USB cable into the computer at this step.
2. Close all open applications.
3. Insert the TASER CAM CD. The TASER CAM Setup Wizard Screen should appear
automatically (Figure 1). If it does not, go to the CD/DVD drive and click setup.exe.
