Chapter 1: Introduction
What Is the Axon Flex 2 Camera System?
The Axon Flex 2 is a camera system incorporating an audio and video recording device. This cam-
era is designed for use in tough environmental conditions encountered in law enforcement, cor-
rections, military, and security activities. The Axon Flex 2 camera is designed to record events for
secure storage, retrieval, and analysis via Evidence.com services. The recorded events are trans-
ferred to your storage solution via the Axon Dock, or by using Evidence Sync software installed
on a Windows computer.
The Axon Flex 2 camera has 2 operating modes designed to accommodate the needs of law en-
forcement, corrections, security, and the military. The default mode, or BUFFERING mode, pro-
vides pre-event buering to capture activities that occur prior to the user activating the EVENT
mode. In addition, the Axon View application enables playback of footage on a smart device for
review prior to storing the data.
