To address customer needs, our team has developed the Zenith application, a versatile mobile e-log designed to enhance your work efficiency. When used with the PT30 ELD, the app displays engine diagnostics, driver status changes, GPS tracking, and more to create a safer and more productive work environment. It also enables drivers to log their Hours of Service (HOS), complete DVIR reports, pass DOT checks, and share data with safety officers for FMCSA compliance at an affordable cost. 2 Log In \ Log Out The Zenith application can be found in the Google Play Store on your Android device. Tap the Install button and wait for the app to download. Then, make sure to accept the permissions the application requests for the correct work. To use the Zenith app, you'll need to register a new account or sign in with your User Login and Password if you already have an account with us. For your convenience, you can also use Face ID/Touch ID for quick and secure access. Your User Login and User Password are unique to you and created during registration on our website. Please contact your Motor Carrier or Fleet Manager if you need help with your login information. When logging out of the Zenith application, ensure that the Upload Queue in the Settings menu is empty. If not, check your internet connection and wait for all data to be transferred before logging out. Remember, if you want to use the application on a different device, it's crucial to log out of the app on your current device. Logging into two different devices simultaneously can lead to data loss, so please log out before switching devices. 3 Home Menu In the Zenith application, you will see the main Hours of Service screen with the following items: Additional Menu icon Malfunctions and data inconsistencies icon shows if there are any issues with a unit or ELD Truck icon shows track to PT30 connection Flag icon shows the rules of which country you are following at the moment. Name icon shows the name of the driver whose working hours are counting at the moment. Notifications Status Switcher. HOS Counters. HOS Menu Log Menu Rules Menu DOT Inspection Menu. 10 4 Connecting to the Truck Please ensure your ELD device is correctly plugged into your truck, as explained in the "Hardware Manual," before you connect your Zenith Application. Once the ELD Device is connected correctly, you will need to turn on Bluetooth, open the app, and tap on the Truck icon on the Home Screen. Using the app, all nearby trucks will be scanned for ELD presence, and a list will be generated. You can set up the connection with one tap by selecting your vehicle and ELD by serial number. The Green Truck icon at the top of the app screen indicates that the system is in ELD mode and the truck is connected. The Red Truck icon indicates that a connection was lost and needs to be re-established. 5 Switching of HOS Statuses You can change your statuses during a shift using the Status Switch interface. Driver statuses include Driving, On Duty, Off Duty Sleeping Berth Border Crossing Yard Move (when your current status is On Duty), Personal Use (when your current status is Off Duty). After a vehicle starts moving, it will automatically record the Driving status within 1-5 seconds. It is essential to wait for up to 10 seconds after stopping before turning off the engine. Once the ELD device recognizes the end of the Driving event and the Status Switch interface becomes active again, you can turn off the engine. If you turn off the engine before the ELD device recognizes the end of the Driving event, the ELD device may get stuck in the Driving status, which can corrupt your log recordings. If this happens, turn on the engine again, wait for the Driving event to end, and change the status accordingly. Manually added events like Personal Use and Yard Move can be entered by drivers along with comments, shipping documents, and trailers. Please note that you should enter the odometer data for manually added events. 6 Personal Use \ Yard Move To switch to Personal Use or Yard Move statuses: 1. Select Off Duty for Personal Use or On Duty for Yard Move in the Status Switch interface Add a comment in the provided field to indicate the status change. Tap Clear, add a comment, and tap Save to finalize the status change. 7 Logbook Menu To access the Log menu containing all the details about a driver, vehicle, and carrier, tap the Log menu on the bottom menu line. On this page, the Log graph visually represent a driver's status switches and hours of service during a shift. You can switch between dates by clicking the respective date. To add a missing event to your logs, tap Insert Event. You can edit existing events in your logs using the Pencil button. FMCSA regulations allow for both editing and adding options. These options should not be used daily; they should only be used when data is entered incorrectly or by mistake. 8 Team Driving Team drivers can conveniently log their working hours and duty statuses using the Zenith app. Each driver using the same vehicle must be logged into the same app simultaneously on the same device, ensuring efficient coordination. Please note that using more than one device simultaneously (for both single and team drivers) is prohibited, as this can result in unavoida
