Patent attributes
A conducted electrical weapon may deploy a single electrode. The single electrode may be deployed in response to a first activation signal of a sequence of activation signals. The conducted electrical weapon may deploy a second electrode in response to a second activation signal of the sequence of activation signals. A signal generator of the conducted electrical weapon may provide a stimulus signal between the single electrode and the second electrode. Deploying the single electrode may include deploying fewer electrodes than a minimum number required by the conducted electrical weapon to provide the stimulus signal at a remote location.
