Malfunction events
All malfunction events, except for Data recording compliance malfunction, can only be cleared automatically and will be
cleared once the corresponding problem goes away. A malfunction indicates an issue with ELD system technical
compliance.
If a malfunction event occurs, the driver must do the following:
01. Notify the Fleet Manager within 24 hours.
02. Reconstruct the record of duty status for the current 24 hours and the required amount of previous days on
graph-grid paper logs that comply with the regulations.
03. Keep paper logs until the ELD is serviced and brought back into compliance.

Description

Reason for event

Timing compliance
malfunction

Absolute deviation from the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) exceeds 10 minutes at
any point in time.

Positioning compliance
malfunction

The ELD determines the location at least every 5 miles (8 kilometers) while the vehicle is
in motion. If the cumulative periods when the ELD fails to acquire a valid position
measurement within 5 miles (8 kilometers) of CMVs movement exceeds 60 minutes for
the last 24-hour period, then this event will be recorded.

Data recording
compliance
malfunction

The mobile device does not have enough free storage space left, or the ELD is unable to
record logs or retrieve logs from the server due to a technical problem with the mobile
device. Make sure your mobile device has at least 100 MB of free storage space. If there
is enough storage space, contact EZ LYNK support to resolve this issue. After the issue
is resolved, manually clear the malfunction event.

Data transfer
compliance
malfunction

Once a Data transfer data diagnostic event occurs, the ELD will enter the unconfirmed
data transfer mode and start checking data transfer compliance every 24 hours. If the
problem doesnt go away after three consecutive checks, then this event will be
recorded.
