Downloading and Viewing Records
The proper software must be installed before video/audio recordings and firing logs can be downloaded (see Installing Evidence Sync).
The TASER CAM recorder can store approximately 4.5 hours of records. After that, new footage will overwrite the old footage in 10-minute segments.
Note: Because video/audio records are stored in the TASER CAM recorder and firing record data are stored in the X26 CEW, if downloading records separately, remember to download firing records from the weapon before or after downloading video/audio from the TASER CAM recorder. You also can download both video/audio records and firing data by inserting the TASER CAM recorder in the associated CEW and then downloading both through the Evidence Sync software.

Note: When a CEW is connected to the recorder during this process, the X26 CEW’s data will be uploaded automatically into the Evidence Sync application from the CEW. The time stamp is created by the CEW in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), but the Evidence Sync software will convert it to your computer’s local time. Videos will remain stored on the TASER CAM recorder (until overwritten by new footage) whether they are uploaded or not.
After the videos and the CEW’s data have been uploaded, you can play the video(s) or upload another TASER CAM recorder and/or X26 CEW.
