ELD Manual
ELD Mandate Overview
It is important to know that ELDs do not fully automate driver logs but are a tool to simplify
the process of data collection for a drivers logs. For example, you still have to manually set
your duty statuses to Off Duty, Sleeper Berth, and so on. You also have to manually certify
your records.
The BIT ELD adapter allows your vehicle to communicate with the BIT ELD app over a wireless
connection. To support compliance with the FMCSAs ELD mandate, it automates the collection
of the following data items:
1. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
2. Odometer mileage
3. Engine hours
4. Engine on/off status
5. Vehicle in-motion status
These are the only data items from the vehicles data bus that are used to support compliance
with the ELD mandate.
The VIN is used to automatically associate your records with a specific vehicle. If you move
your ELD adapter to a different vehicle, it will automatically read the new VIN and use the new
VIN in your logs. The odometer and engine hour readings are used to automatically fill in fields
in your driver logs.
The engine on/off status and vehicle in-motion status are used as triggers to automatically
record events. A record will be automatically added to the ELDs logs when the engine is turned
on or turned off. When the vehicles wheel speed exceeds 5 mph, a duty status of Driving will
be automatically recorded. If the vehicle is no longer in motion, the ELD will automatically
record a duty status change to On Duty Not Driving after 6 minutes if the driver does not
manually change their duty status. When the ELD adapter detects that the vehicle is in motion,
the time must be recorded as either driving, personal use of the commercial vehicle, or a yard
move. The time when the vehicle is in motion cannot be shortened or changed to a non-moving
status such as Off Duty, Sleeper Berth, or On Duty Not Driving. This is all part of the ELD
mandate.
Your records are collected and stored in a database on your smartphone or tablet with the ZUS
app. However, the ELD adapter has internal memory to store events when not connected to the
ZUS app. These records will be associated with the Unidentified Driver account and will be
visible to all drivers of that vehicle on the Home screen of the ZUS app.
