User Manual

In 2001 the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) issued a preliminary document
addressing the issue of increasing commercial vehicle traffic accidents. The objective was to address
safety issues associated with driver fatigue. The intent was to establish criteria for collection of driving
records by electronic means.
Subsequent to the initial document release, a number of revisions were incorporated reflecting the
latest available technology that would allow termination of the manual Paper Logs.
In 2015 Transportation Information Systems (TIS) began developing an EDL product based on the proven
abilities of the TIS Mobile Data Terminal Version 3 (MDT-3). The MDT-3 uses an Android tablet as the
basis of a mobile Fleet Management System. The original system incorporates a number of functions
such as GPS Location Tracking, Two-Way Digital Communications, Dispatching and Job Status
Management. Using this base product, TIS added the functionalities required for the ELD functions. For
system reliability, the ELD database is retained local and cloud server.
The iFleetELD system is available in a Single User and an Enterprise version.

web cloud servers for future reference. See Automated Monitoring information later in this manual.

Basic rules (For more details get from the FMCSA website the Federal Register for Hours of service)
Consecutive OFF-Duty Time
Once a driver has worked a total of for example (60 hours in the past 7 days) Rule set, they have hit their limit. They
must be OFF-Duty for a period of 34 hours in order to work again. This is also referred to as the 34-hour reset or
34-hour restart.
Drivers must have a certain number of non-working/off hours within a 24-hour time period to give them a rest from
driving and other miscellaneous tasks. Drivers can do their OFF-duty time in the sleeper berth, in a hotel, at home,
or other areas outside of actual work. The driver is considered OFF-Duty as soon as they are no longer in transit
with the goods, services or passengers. They can drive while OFF-Duty, but not for any work-related tasks such as
fueling the vehicle or taking it to the mechanic. Previously, an extra restriction for the 34-hour restart had been
considered, requiring two OFF-Duty periods of 1 a.m. to 5 a.m. and a once per week provision.
Sleeper Berth
The Sleeper Berth refers to the cab in the back of the truck which can contain a bed, desk, TV, and fridge. Drivers
can use the time spent in the sleep-berth to count towards their mandatory rest-limits or their OFF-Duty time. If
drivers have a 10-hour OFF-Duty time, they can spend the full 10 hours in the sleeper-berth or they can do 8 hours
of OFF-Duty, followed by some driving then 2-hours of OFF-Duty time which would count towards their total OFFDuty time.
Rest Breaks
Rest time is the required break for a CMV driver after a certain number of hours worked. For example, if a propertycarrying driver drives 8 hours, driver is required to take a 30-minute break.
