TM

The eDriver Logs ELD system complies with and is tested against the United States Department of
Transportation (USDOT) Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) specifications as
found in 49 CFR Part 395 for Electronic Logging Devices, Subpart B.
NOTE:
Trimble bears no responsibility for the drivers failure to comply with this
requirement.

This guide is intended to complement Trimbles eDriver Logs ELD training. No
driver should attempt to rely solely on the eDriver Logs ELD guide without
first completing training from your company.

You are required to keep this guide in your vehicle at all times. Provide this
documentation to the auditor in the case of a D.O.T. inspection. eDriver Logs
ELD relies on accurate input of data and appropriate use by the driver.
PeopleNet assumes no liability for erroneous, accidental, or intentional input
of data or misuse of the product.

If there is an ELD Compliance Malfunction on the device and you are not
able to immediately resolve the malfunction, you must begin keeping paper
logs until the device is once again compliant. Refer to the Troubleshooting
section for common causes and resolutions. If your logs can no longer be accessed on the device, you must reconstruct your logs on paper for the current
24-hour period and the previous 7 consecutive days. For this reason you are
required to carry a paper log book in your vehicle at all times.

The regulations announced by the FMCSA and the Canadian government
are subject to change. PeopleNet will endeavor to automatically update the
eDriver Logs ELD device as soon as practical. Trimble assumes no liability for
reasonable delays in providing system updates or upgrades.
