Introduction

To meet the requirements of FMCSA, all commercial vehicle drivers must log
their work activity with the help of Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs).



Our team has developed the ELD PRO Solution app to provide drivers with a
safer and more productive environment. 



This application displays engine diagnostics, registers driver status changes,
provides GPS tracking, and more to increase the quality of your work. With
ELD PRO Solution, you can easily log your Hours of Operation, create DVIR
reports, pass DOT checks, maintain your electronic logbook, and send your
data to safety officers for FMCSA compliance.


Log in/Log Out

You can download the ELD PRO Solution from the
Apple Store for Apple devices. After clicking the
Install button, please wait until the software is
downloaded.

Open

the

application

and

accept

the permissions that are asked.



To set up the ELD PRO Solution for the first time,
you need to register a new account or log in with
your existing account.



When

logging

out

of

the

ELD

PRO

Solution

application, ensure the Records in Queue in the
Settings menu is empty. If not, please re-check
your

internet

connection

and

wait

until

all

the

data is transferred.

Team Driving
If you are planning to drive as a team, the
ELD PRO Solution can be used to record your
working hours and duty statuses. All drivers
sharing the same vehicle must use the same
app installed on the same device.


To get started, the first driver should log in to
the app using their Login and Password.
Once the first driver has logged in, the
second driver should go to the Settings
menu, tap on the Co-Driver Login button,
and enter their user login and password.


Once both drivers are logged in, they can use
the app by switching between driving
perspectives using the Co-drivers icon.

It is important to note that using multiple
devices simultaneously is not allowed, as it
can cause data loss.


Connection to Truck
Ensure your ELD device is correctly plugged into your truck before connecting to the
ELD PRO Solution application.


If the ELD Device is connected correctly, you need to turn on the Bluetooth on your
device, open the application, and click the Truck icon at the top of the Home Screen.
The app will scan nearby trucks for ELDs and display them as a list. Please select your
vehicle and ELD from the list and connect them.


If the truck is connected and the system is in ELD mode, you will see the Connected
icon on the top of your screen. The Disconnected icon will indicate that the
connection is lost and must be restored.

Status Switch
The Status Switch interface is a tool that allows you to modify your current
status. Available driver statuses include Driving, On Duty, Off Duty, Sleeping
Berth, Yard Move (only accessible when your current status is On Duty), and
Personal Use (which is only accessible when your current status is Off Duty).
The ELD device automatically records the
driving status 10-15 seconds after a vehicle
starts moving. Once the driving has ended, it
is recommended that you stop the vehicle
and wait for up to 20 seconds until the ELD
device recognizes the end of the driving
event. After the status switch interface
becomes active again, you can turn off the
engine.


Please ensure you do not turn off the engine
before the ELD device recognizes the end of
the Driving event. If you do, you may get
stuck in the Driving status and corrupt your
log recording. If this has already happened,
you have to turn on the engine again, wait for
the end of the Driving event to be
recognized, and then change the status to
the one you need.


The ELD PRO Solution app lets drivers
manually record specific events such as
Personal Use and Yard Move. Drivers can add
comments, shipping documents, and trailers
for all the events. It is important to note that
manually
added
events
must
be
accompanied
by
the
corresponding
odometer data.

Personal Use

Yard Move

To switch your current status to
Personal Use, open the HOS page

After that, you will see an additional

status.

Logbook
The ELD PRO Solution application is a helpful
tool for logging drivers' hours of operation. To
access details related to a driver, vehicle, and
carrier, click the Logs button in the upper menu.


The log graph provides an easy-to-understand
picture of a driver's status switches and hours of
service during a shift.


In case you need to add a missing event to your
logs, you can use the Add Event button. If you
want to make changes to an existing event, you
can use the Pencil button. However, please
remember that the FMCSA regulations allow
adding and editing options only to correct data
entered by mistake.




7

DOT Inspection
Tap the Start Inspection button and check if your logs are ready to be
transferred to the safety officials. If everything is OK, tap the Transfer Data
button and choose the method of sending your logs:

Send it to the personal email (provided by the inspector);
Send it to the FMCSA email;
Send it to the Web Services (FMCSA). 


If you select the personal email option, you need to enter the recipient's
address and add a comment. If you select Web Services (FMCSA) or Email to
FMCSA, you need to add a comment. The reporting period will vary
depending on the rules of the country in which you operate.

8

Driver Vehicle Inspection Report (DVIR)
To ensure compliance with FMCSA regulations, every motor carrier driver is
required to complete a Driver Vehicle Inspection Report (DVIR) daily.


To submit the report, navigate to the DVIR menu. Here, you can view all the
previously created reports and add a new one by clicking the Add Inspection
Report button.


For a new DVIR report, you will need to input your location, select your truck
or trailer, enter the truck and odometer number, and specify any defects in
the truck or trailer, if any. Please also comment about whether your current
vehicle is safe to drive.

Malfunctions and Data Inconsistencies
According to FMCSA requirements, each ELD device must monitor
compliance with the ELD technical standards and detect malfunctions and
data inconsistencies. The ELD output will identify Data diagnostics and
malfunctions and their status as "detected" or "cleared."


Detected malfunctions or data diagnostic issues will be indicated accordingly
by an M or D letter in red on the MD icon at the top of the screen.


According to FMCSA requirements (49 CFR  395.34 ELD malfunctions and
data diagnostic events), in the case of an ELD malfunction, a driver must do
the following:


1. Note the malfunction of the ELD and provide written notice to the motor
carrier within 24 hours.

2. Reconstruct the record of duty status for the current 24-hour period and
the previous seven consecutive days, and record the records of duty status
on graph-grid paper logs that comply with 395.8, unless the driver already
possesses the records or the records are retrievable from the ELD.

3. Continue to manually prepare a record of duty status following  395.8 until
the ELD is serviced and brought back into compliance with this subpart.


Note: If you are facing any issues during the DOT inspection, please be ready
to provide the manually kept and filled RODS (records of duty status) to the
roadside inspector.
