TASER 7 logs

The TASER 7 energy weapon captures various pieces of information about the device as device logs. These logs are uploaded securely to Axon Evidence, where the information is encrypted, stored securely, and organized into dashboards that let you easily monitor the usage and system status of your entire arsenal of TASER 7 energy weapons.

The logs are a powerful management tool to track usage patterns and help prevent misuse. Activities are grouped by sessions. Each session has a Session Start and a Session End that summarizes the weapon state when it was ARMED and after it was disarmed, including the date and time for each energy weapon deployment. Each entry has a timestamp in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which Axon Evidence converts to your local time.

The logs are named Device log and Audit trail.
