WARNING: Lithium Batteries may explode or cause burn if disassembled, recharged or
exposed to water, re or high temperature. For use in TASER X26 devices only.

THE TASER® CONTROLLED DIGITAL POWER MAGAZINE (CDPM™)

The TASER Controlled Digital Power Magazine (CDPM) is an option
for the law enforcement X26™ device. The CDPM has the same
function as the Digital Power Magazine (DPM™), but the CDPM
features a safety lanyard/wrist strap designed to secure the device
to the ocer. If a prisoner or suspect takes the X26 device away
and breaks the connection for more than two seconds, the system
is designed to deactivate the X26 device. An activation code is then
necessary to reactivate the device for future use.

Note: The two seconds required to fully disable the device is a functional design that allows for full
X26 device operation if a timely reconnect is initiated after an unintended disconnect.

The CDPM is designed to work with law enforcement X26 devices. It can be used with the X26
Citizen device (X26C™); however, the activation code feature will not function.

An X26 device, congured for a CDPM, operates the same way as other X26 devices
with one major dierence: if the device detects that either the CDPM or the lanyard/
wrist strap (Figure 1) has been removed or disconnected for more than two seconds,
then you must enter an activation code for the device to work.

In addition to the CDPM, the CDPM conguration system includes two specialized
DPMs (Figures 2 and 3); a green Congure Controlled DPM (CCDPM™) and a red
De-Congure Controlled DPM (DCDPM™). The CCDPM is used
to activate a code enabled prole in the X26 device. In the code
enable mode, the X26 device will work with all TASER digital power
magazines. The DCDPM will convert a code enabled X26 device
back to its original conguration, whereby an activation code is not
required.

PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION

The CDPM has a safety lock on its base. The lanyard/wrist strap is attached to a safety key. Use the
safety key to attach the 2-piece lanyard/wrist strap to the CDPM safety lock.

CONFIGURING A TASER X26 DEVICE FOR THE CDPM

Note: Do not perform this procedure with an X26C (citizen) device. If you insert a CCDPM into an

X26C device, the CID will display a “P” and then the error code “EO”. Insert a standard DPM programmed
with version 22 or higher into the device in order to recover it.

1. Verify that the TASER cartridge is removed. Failure to remove the TASER
cartridge prior to conguration may cause serious injury.

2. Verify that the safety switch is in the down (SAFE) position (Figure 4).

3. Remove the DPM from the X26 device (Figure 5).

4. Insert the green CCDPM into the X26 device. Verify that the DPM release
button (Figure 5) pops out from the recessed position with an audible click
(failure to do so could result in a damaged X26 device or a loss of power
during conguration).

5. If your X26 device has version 21 software or greater, a “P” is displayed on the
device’s Central Information Display (CID) for about six seconds, indicating that
the conguration code is being programmed into the device (Figure 6).
If your X26 device is programmed with version 20 or earlier, this process will
take about 14 seconds. When programming is complete, a two digit CCDPM
version level is displayed, and then the CID display will turn o.

Figure 5

Note: If the CID displays a “P”, then the error code “EO”, the X26 device is a citizen
model (X26C). In this instance, insert a standard DPM programmed with version 22
or higher into the device in order to recover it.
