Operation - Field Mode

Signal Sidearm has four operating modes; Low Power Mode, Test Mode, Field Mode, and Mute Mode. The sensor should be in Field Mode during normal operations.

Important: The sensor can only enter Field Mode from Test Mode and can only enter Mute Mode from Field Mode.

In Field Mode, the LED is off. The sensor alerts Axon cameras to record when your pistol is removed from the holster.

  1. Press and hold the button for 3 seconds to go from Test Mode to Field Mode. The LED shows green and then slowly blinks 3 times to indicate the sensor has entered Field Mode.

  2. When your pistol is removed from the holster, Signal Sidearm alerts Axon cameras to record. The duration of the alert is 30 seconds.
  3. If you need to remove your pistol without alerting Axon cameras to record, put your sensor in Mute Mode.
