Usage
• The recorder is designed to be
powered from a 12-volt source. It
cannot be used in vehicles with a
different electrical source voltage.
(Never connect the recorder to a
24-volt source.)
• When using the recorder for the
first time or after reconnecting it to
the power supply, be sure to set
the date, time, and time zone of
the internal clock using the
Toughbook-Arbitrator Front End
Software.

liquid or any small metal objects
on top of the recorder, camera, or
P2 card.
• Do not insert any foreign objects
into the openings of the unit.
• Do not attempt to modify the
recorder, camera, or P2 card.
• Take care not to damage the
power cable or connection cables.
Do not modify, bend, twist, curl, or
pull these parts or subject them to
a strong stress force. Also avoid
exposure to high temperatures.
• Protect the recorder, camera, and
P2 cards from moisture and do not
expose them to water.
• Do not place heavy objects on the
recorder or camera and do not
step on these parts. Do not
suspend any heavy objects from
the mounted camera.

power cable and other connection
cables.

carefully and do not use excessive
force. Otherwise the P2 card or
the card slot will be damaged.
