You can view the active image of individual offenders at any time, by clicking on the Image button on any TAG screen that has one, such as the Identification or Exact Search screen. To open the Image window from the Identification screen:
Select Institutions Booking Identification from the Main Menu.
Query for the offender you want to view if they aren’t active.
Click on the Image button. The Images window appears, displaying the active Front image of the offender. All existing images of the offender are listed:
in the Capture field by the date and time when the image was taken.
in the Type field by image type (front, left/right profile etc.).
To view another image, simply click on it. You can also set another image as active at this time.
Above is an example Images window.
