An apparatus impedes locomotion by a target. The apparatus is used with a provided electrode for conducting a current through the target. The apparatus includes a trigger, a circuit, a memory, and a signal generator. The circuit is responsive to the trigger. The signal generator, responsive to the circuit, provides the current. The circuit receives information for setting time and date. The circuit tracks time of day and date based on the time and date setting. The memory, in response to the circuit, stores current time of day and date in a respective record of a first type upon each occurrence of setting of time and date.

What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus for impeding locomotion by a target, the apparatus for use with a provided electrode for conducting a current through the target, the apparatus comprising: a trigger; a circuit responsive to the trigger; a memory; and a signal generator, responsive to the circuit to provide the current, wherein: (1) the circuit receives information for setting time and date; (2) the circuit tracks time of day and date based on the time and date setting; and (3) the memory, in response to the circuit, stores current time of day and date in a respective record of a first type upon each occurrence of setting of time and date. 2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the circuit comprises a microprocessor that tracks time of day and date. 3. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the circuit comprises a real time clock that tracks time of day and date. 4. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the memory, in further response to the circuit, stores current time of day and date in a respective record of a second type upon each operation of the trigger. 5. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein setting time and date are accomplished in accordance with GMT. 6. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein: the apparatus further comprises an interface to a computer; and the memory provides the records of the first type and of the second type via the interface to the computer. 7. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein: the apparatus further comprises a battery that powers the signal generator; and the memory, in further response to the circuit, stores indicia of a voltage of the battery upon each operation of the trigger. 8. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein: the apparatus further comprises a safety having a present position of the set comprising an armed position and a safe position; and responsive to a change of the present position, the memory further stores the present position of the safety. 9. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising a display that presents a presentation comprising the current time of day and date. 10. An apparatus for impeding locomotion by a target, the apparatus for use with a provided electrode for conducting a current through the target, the apparatus comprising: a trigger; a memory having nonvolatile storage; and a circuit comprising: (1) a microprocessor responsive to the trigger; and (2) a signal generator, responsive to the microprocessor to provide the current, wherein: the circuit receives information in accordance with GMT for setting time and date; the circuit tracks time of day and date based on the time and date setting; and the memory, in response to the circuit, stores current time of day and date in a respective record upon each operation of the trigger and upon each occurrence of setting of time and date. 11. The apparatus of claim 10 wherein: the apparatus further comprises an interface to a computer; and the interface provides to the computer the respective records of the memory.
