Operating Modes
The Axon Flex system has two operating modes:
1 BUFFERING
2 EVENT
BUFFERING Mode
BUFFERING mode is the default mode of operation, and it is activated a few seconds after turning on the controller.
The camera must be attached to the controller in order for it to capture video in BUFFERING mode. If the camera
is not connected to the controller, you will not capture any video.
When BUFFERING begins:
• The Operation LED on the controller will blink green.
• The camera will be capturing video but no audio, and will not record to permanent memory while in BUFFERING
mode.
• Buered video duration is up to 30 seconds (00:00:30).
When you activate the EVENT mode, the buered video (not audio) captured directly before the event will be saved
and attached to the event in permanent memory. This feature is intended to capture the video of an incident just
before your activation of EVENT mode.
Because the system does not capture audio in BUFFERING mode, the rst 30 seconds of a recorded event will be
video-only. Buering mode starts only after the Axon Flex controller is turned on. The system does not record
when the controller is turned o.
NOTE: An agency can turn o the BUFFERING mode. If your agency has deactivated the BUFFERING mode, your
Axon system will operate the same way as described in this manual, but the camera will not record anything
until you double-press the EVENT button.
EVENT Mode
1 When you need to record, quickly double-press the EVENT button on the controller.
The system now records audio as well as video. The “buered” video directly preceding the event will be saved
