Using V300 in a recording group

Recording Group Overview

When you dock V300 in the WiFi base, the camera pairs with the base. This pairing lets the
camera associate with other V300 Cameras as a local recording group.
The decision to create an event for the group recording is made by each device in the local
recording group network. This is called Distributed Multi-Peer Recording™. Starting a recorded
event on one device alerts the other devices in the group through the WiFi base that there has
been a change in recording status on that device. In response, the other devices in the group can
start recording the event, each according to its own configuration. Recordings from the individual
cameras are uploaded and automatically linked in evidence management software for viewing and
sharing.

Recording group members

A recording group consists of a network of devices communicating with each other whenever one
of them changes its recording status. Although a recording group is typically linked to a vehicle,
the V300 Cameras can form their own recording group. A local recording group may include:
Up to eight V300 Cameras
l
One WiFi base
l
4RE DVR, firmware version of 4.0.7 or later
