Taser X3 - Manual (Page 44)

The X3 ECD can determine whether the Smart Cartridges loaded in the cartridge bays have been expended or
not. The ECD also can determine whether all the cartridge bays are loaded or not. This means the ECD will not
select an empty bay or an expended cartridge. Cartridge status is displayed on the CID.
Empty Cartridge Bay /Loaded/Loaded
Expended/Not Deployed/Not Deployed
The X3 ECD is designed to distinguish between standard Smart Cartridges and training Smart Cartridges. If
both standard and training cartridges are loaded in an X3 ECD, the standard cartridges will be locked so they
will not deploy. The drive-stun capability will still be available.
Training/Locked/Training
Training cartridges are available in 25-foot and 35-foot lengths.
AFID
Every time a TASER cartridge is deployed, at least 20–30 small confetti-like Anti-Felon Identification (AFID) tags
are ejected. Cartridges can be assigned to individual users, as each is serialized. Each AFID tag is printed with
the corresponding serial number of the cartridge deployed, allowing determination of which user deployed
the cartridge.
