EVENT Button
– A double-press (quickly press twice) on the EVENT button takes the Flex system into
EVENT mode and begins recording video and audio (the Flex system can be configured without the audio
recording capability for locations where audio recording is restricted).
A 3-second press of the EVENT button takes the Flex system out of EVENT mode. The controller might take
several additional seconds to close out of the event video when it is taken out of EVENT mode.
