Step 1:
Recording
The AXON flex system has two operating modes. The default mode, or BUFFERING
mode, provides pre-event buffering to capture activities that occur before you
activate the EVENT (recording) mode.
1
Turn the system on. Move the ON/OFF switch to the ON position.

Boot Up Mode
Blinking Green
Buffering Mode
• The camera takes a few seconds to boot up and be ready to record (the red area
under the switch will be exposed with the switch moved to the ON position).
• The operation LED will be solid red and then transition to blinking green
when the system goes into BUFFERING mode.
• The system will go into BUFFERING mode after the boot up sequence. The
BUFFERING mode holds the previous 30 seconds of video [NO AUDIO] leading
up to the beginning of a recording.
2
To record, quickly double-press the EVENT button.
• The system now records audio as well as video.
• The system will beep twice to let you know that recording started. The 2
beeps will repeat every 2 minutes (if the system is muted, there will be no
audio notifications).
• The operation LED will blink red.

To stop recording and return to BUFFERING mode, press and hold the EVENT
button for at least 3 seconds until there is a long, audible beep.
Because the system does not capture audio in BUFFERING mode, the first 30
seconds of a recorded event will be video-only (depending on your agency’s
settings). BUFFERING mode starts only after the camera is turned on. The system
does not record when the AXON flex controller is turned off.
