1. An electronic weapon that cooperates with a plurality of provided deployment units to impede locomotion by a target, each deployment unit comprises a plurality of provided wire-tethered electrodes for launching toward the target to impede locomotion by the target, the electronic weapon comprising:

  • a first user-operated control;

    a second user-operated control; and

    a signal generator;

    wherein;

    each operation of the first control launches the electrodes of one deployment unit of the plurality of deployment units toward the target;

    an operation of the second control does not launch any electrodes of any deployment unit;

    responsive to each operation of the second control, the signal generator provides a current through the target via the electrodes of each launched deployment unit respectively, the current for contracting skeletal muscles of the target to impede locomotion by the target; and

    further responsive to an operation of the first control, the signal generator provides the current via the electrodes launched by the operation of the first control.
