1. Hours of Service Driver Training Presented By:
The purpose of this presentation is to provide information about the Upcoming ELD Mandate being implemented by the Federal Motor Carrier Association Requiring the use of “Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) for Hours of Service.

2. Overview
HOS automatically detects driving time using vehicle sensor data.
Sensors are attached to the J-1708/J1939 data bus (ECM) of the vehicle.
The system plugs into the trucks ECM and uses the trucks sensors to detect motion and capture required odometer readings, in addition it records GPS locations in the driver remarks at each change of duty status to automatically create driver logs.
All information for the drivers logs is stored on the unit so they will always have access to real time data.
The system transmits the data every 15 minutes to our servers where the information is then stored for 6 months and is viewable on the web portal.
If the drivers unit is unable to communicate the portal will not receive the update until the system is able to communicate.

3. Overview Log is always up to date
Many of the required fields are automatically completed for you
Full driving time (no more rounding to the nearest 15 minutes)
Automatically Calculates your available hours
Gives you an Audible Message when running out of drive time!
Benefits of using this system
Your log will always be up to date.
The system automatically completes most of the required information for you, so it will save you time.
Drive time is recorded by the minute not rounded to the nearest 15 minutes, giving you the ability to use the full 13 or 11 hours of driving time.
The drivers unit will automatically calculate your available hours based on your region setting and provide you with visibility of your available working/ driving hours.
Actionable notification warns you of impending violations 1 hour, 30 Min & 15 Minutes prior so you can find a safe place to rest.

4. Overview
HOS sends a signal to the system at two points through the use of two triggers:
BOT: Beginning of Trip trigger (Driving) BOT signal is sent when the vehicle has moved 1 Kilometer
Or 35kph - Speed
EOT: End of Trip trigger (On Duty)
The HOS system is triggered to automatically update the drivers logs at two points.
Beginning of Trip Trigger (Driving) & EOT End of trip Trigger (Puts you back into On Duty Status)
*** Train your drivers based on your configuration ***
Let’s start by reviewing the threshold for BOT and EOT (End of Trip).
BOT Distance – Default is 1 KM After reaching this threshold, the driver status will be automatically be changed from ON-DUTY to DRIVE. (This is Configurable between 0 and 2 miles.)
BOT Speed – *** BOT is defaulted to Distance unless change is requested by the Carrier ** Configurable between 0 and 25 MPH. After reaching this threshold, the driver status will be automatically changed from ON-DUTY to DRIVE.
EOT Time – Hard coded to 5 minutes. After 5 minutes if no wheel movement is detected, the driver status is automatically switched from DRIVE to ON-DUTY
Reset Time – Hard coded to 5 minutes. This timer resets the BOT distance counters and the EOT timer. If a driver is ON-DUTY and has driven for ½ km and stops for 5 minutes, the KM counter for BOT calculation resets back to zero kms. In the same way if a driver is driving and stops in traffic for 4 ½ minutes and starts driving again, the EOT timer resets back to zero minutes.
Ignition Off – This resets all the BOT and EOT counters back to zero.
*** A driver can override the EOT by selecting driving Manually in the event the driver is stuck on the highway behind the wheel in major traffic to avoid erroneous changes is status, but they have to remember to change their status manually when they stop driving again.

5. Overview - BOT Distance Threshold
Activity Empty Trailer Search
Elog Before Change
Elog After Change
0830 – 0840 (10 min) arrive at a yard and stop for 10 minutes
On-duty not driving
start moving down aisle of a yard
Driving
(1 min) stop and check a trailer
start moving again to the next aisle
0846 – 0847 (1 min) stop and check another trailer
0847 – 0850 start moving again to the next aisle
0850 – 0851 (1 min) stop and check another trailer
0851 – 0854 start moving again
0854 – 0855 (1 min) stop and check another trailer
0855 – 0859 go to farther end of yard
0859 – 0900 (1 min) stop and check another trailer
0900 – 0902 start moving again
0902 – reach the 2 mile threshold
0908 – 0915 (7 min) stop and finally find an empty trailer
Example Based on Distance BOT
The driver starts driving at 0841, that’s when the system first detected wheels move.
This is followed by a series of stop and go but because the driver has not spent at least 5 minutes at any single stop, the BOT counter has not reset. Therefore all of the consecutive driving segments contribute to the total driving time.
At 0902 a cumulative 1KM of driving distance is reached and the BOT Distance threshold is met.
Once the threshold is met we go back to the beginning of wheels move which is 0841.
At 0908 the driver stops and after 5 minutes he meets the EOT threshold and he gets put back to ON-DUTY. He is considered to have started ON-DUTY at 0908.

6. Overview – BOT Speed Threshold
Activity Guard Shack Short Stop
Elog Before Change
Elog After Change
0830 on-duty not driving pre-trip inspection
On-duty not driving
0900 pull out of parking spot (drive 1/8 of a mile)
Driving
0904 stop at guard shack (sit for 4 minutes)
0908 pull forward from guard shack and start driving
0913 continue driving and reach 15 MPH threshold
*** Example Based on Speed BOT*** Hide or delete slide if it doesn’t apply to your fleet
The driver starts driving at 0900, that’s when the system first detected wheels move.
When the driver stops at 0904, it was only for 4 minutes so it was not enough to reset the BOT timer.
The driver continues to drive and meets the defined BOT Speed threshold of 35 KMPH, at 0913.
The driver duty status is changed to DRIVE and the counter goes all the way back to the first time the wheel movement was detected which was at 0900.

7. A Day in the Life of the Driver
Arrive at truck Login, the system automatically pulls your prev. 14 days logs from the server, creates your off duty logs and starts todays log On Duty, all from entering your username and Password . - If you forget to log in you have no access to your logs and the system will not have started to create your log for that day.
Once you are logged in start your pre-trip, Once completed fill out the Inspection Report (this could be a paper trip inspection or if you have subscribed to our VIR it would also be on the system under workflow)
Review your logs ensure you show an adequate amount of time for the inspection.
Approve your Logs ** Equivalent to Signature on Paper Log if you forget it could result in a fine ** Must be done at least once every 24 hours, we recommend doing it every time the driver updates their status manually.
If you need to perform an edit you can do that prior to approving the log *** Note drivers can not edit driving *** Must contact your Safety administrator***
Enter your load information in the load tab
Driving – system automatically records all drive time and will give drivers a 1 hour warning of impending violation, so they can find a safe place to stop and rest.
If your Team drivers Both drivers must login at the beginning of the trip & drivers must ensure that when they stop to switch, that they switch on the log system to reflect the active driver!
You rarely need to update your log other than to change your duty status from on duty to sleeper berth or off duty or to add a remark to a duty status.
In the event of a road side inspection the drivers units are accessible through the window of the cab. You should offer to show the officer your logs directly on the unit; however you also have the capability of faxing or ing your logs to the officer. * You must also have a visor card in the truck at all times and may be asked to produce this during an inspection this is a US requirement.
Once you have arrived back at the yard and you are done your trip and leaving the truck for the day, you should log out of the system. This will ensure that if the vehicle is used while the you are at home that any drive time belonging to someone else does not show on your log and interfere with your reset.
