Datasmart ELD

M2M DataSmart has an ELD solution that will guarantee your compliance to the MAP 21 mandate that takes effect on December 18, 2017. All ELD solutions must meet FMCSA’s § 395.20 regulations and be upgraded to stay compliant as the regulations change. For a driver the ELD must be easy to use and intuitive. At DataSmart ELD we strive for what we call “Walkup Usable.” What this means is that our software should be so intuitive that a driver who is familiar with paper logs should be able to use our ELD without any training.

ELDs Meet FMCSA’s 395.20 Regulations

Last year in the ELD Mandate, FMCSA introduced a new class of devices, Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs), that are defined in § 395.20 regulations. These new devices are required to be used by drivers who are subject to record of duty status (RODS) regulations by December 18, 2017.

ELDs represent the latest in technology and are much more sophisticated than the soon to be outmoded AOBRDs. Among other things ELDs must be integrally synchronized with the engine on a commercial vehicle and must capture:

Engine power status
Vehicle motion status
Total miles driven
Total engine hours
Engine power status
Vehicle speed
Vehicle location

ELDs are more advanced than AOBRDs and are required to automate the capture of RODS data automatically at each duty status change, every 60 minutes while the vehicle is in motion, at engine power-on and off events, and at the beginning and end of personal use and yard moves. In addition, ELDs must be capable of automatically transferring RODS data to FMCSA and must monitor themselves for diagnostics and malfunctions.

DataSmart ELD implementation uses an Android or iOS device that connects wirelessly to a dongle or telematics device that is connected the the vehicle bus. To meet the vehicle monitoring requirements, vehicle data is streamed continuously from the vbus device to the Android or iOS mobile device. The mobile device processes this information on a background thread, performs the necessary calculations, presents the information to the driver using the familiar grid chart, and synchronizes it with back office servers that run on Amazon Web services.

Don't trust your existing supplier to provide a magic software update to bring your fleet into ELD compliance in 24 months. All of the hardware has changed in 30 years and so have your trucks. DataSmart ELD assures your fleet's ELD compliance.
