Operating the TASER CAM System
When the TASER CAM HD recorder is inserted into an X2 ECD and
disconnected from an external charging source (PC or wall power), it
provides power to the ECD and to the sensitive camera and microphone used
by the TASER CAM HD recorder.
The X2 ECD’s firmware must be upgraded to firmware version v03.022
or greater before installing the TASER CAM HD recorder. If the firmware
is outdated the recorder should provide power to the ECD, but the
