Upload evidence over a cellular connection

2. Ensure your evidence is transferring to your Evidence Library software.

Verify the Upload and Signal icons appears on the screen.

3. Log out of the 4RE DVR.

4. Turn off the vehicle ignition.

The 4RE DVR will continue to upload recorded events for an extended time, even after the
ignition is turned off. This is the

Wireless transfer shutdown timer

setting that you define

in the Evidence Library 4RE configuration. How long the recorded events continue to upload
depends on your agency settings.

For more information,

see your Evidence Library documentation

.

Important!

Avoid using the

Power

control to power ON and OFF the 4RE. You

can damage or lose data doing this. We recommend that you use the vehicle
ignition to power on and off.

Upload evidence over a cellular connection

You can upload video over 3G or 4G cellular and WiFi (via VPN) connection to the Evidence
Library server. The upload was tested on the Sierra Wireless Airlink MG90 Vehicle Router

These connections can be much slower than the wireless Ethernet. No limit exists on the
lowest upload speed. 4RE continues to upload unless the speed drops to zero. If the speed goes
to zero, the upload stops until the speed goes above zero.

Note:

WatchGuard Video recommends that you contact WatchGuard support

before setting up the system to upload over cellular.

Uploading evidence using the USB thumb drive

Note:

If your agency does not use the USB thumb drive to upload evidence,

typically you do not remove the thumb drive.
