DVR Operation
Powering Up
The Flashback is designed to power on automatically whenever you turn your
vehicle’s ignition
on
. This is the recommended method for turning your Flashback
on. You do not have to press any buttons.
Logging into a DVR Using Your USB Login Key
When more than one officer uses the same patrol car, you need a way to identify
yourself to the DVR at the beginning of each shift so that your videos will be linked
to you. That is what the DVR Login Key is used for. It is simply a file that contains
your user information. You copy this file from the DES application to a USB
memory stick, then insert the memory stick in your Flashback’s USB port at the
beginning of each shift.

If you have not done so already, copy your login information from the DES server to
a USB memory stick. For specific instructions, see “Generating a DVR Login Key”
in chapter 1 of the
DEP User’s Guide

Officer” in chapter 5 of the
DEP Administrator’s Guide
