Uploading
Insert the camera into a single or multi-unit dock to charge the battery and upload files. The cameras will immediately begin uploading once connected. The camera display will show the upload status. Always check the display before removing a camera from the dock; do not remove it if a firmware update is in progress.
See the Article BODYCAM 4 Dock Setup for more details.
Safety Precaution
IMPORTANT! The BODYCAM 4 camera uses a rechargeable Lithium-Polymer battery for operation. It is important to follow proper requirements for operating, charging, and storage to ensure safe functioning of the unit. If the battery is emitting unusual odors during charging or the rear cover of the camera is bulging (due to battery swelling), remove the camera from service immediately. Do not continue charging or try charging again until the battery has been replaced.
