Vehicles

Note: Vehicle configuration settings are only available to agencies that use Axon Fleet.

Vehicle information must be configured in Evidence.com before Axon View XL can connect to Evidence.com and before videos can be uploaded from Fleet Cameras. The mobile data terminal (MDT) or mobile digital computer (MDC) in the vehicle uses the SSID information to connect to Evidence.com.

This option allows users to add information for multiple Axon Fleet 2 and Axon Fleet vehicles at one time using a comma-separated values (csv) file. The csv file requires the same information as when creating a single vehicle. The csv file has seven columns and the first row must contain the header information for the file. The following image shows an example csv file layout.

Each heading and the expected information is listed below.

• Vehicle Name: A unique name for the vehicle.
