 Intrastate to Interstate driving rules
If the driver is operating in intrastate mode and is crossing over a state line then the app
automatically switches to federal rules. A dialog will display confirming that the driving
rules have changed right after crossing boundaries.

Example:
SouthCarolina80hr8days to US70hr8days
or
SouthCarolina70hr7days to US60hr7days

 Interstate to Intrastate driving rules
The driver must also follow the Federal HOS regulations for a short period of time while
operating in interstate commerce. If the driver were using the 60-hour/7-day schedule,
he must follow the Federal HOS regulations for the next 7 days having done operating in
interstate commerce. If you were using the 70-hour/8-day schedule, you must follow the
Federal hours-of-service regulations for the next 8 days after you finish operating in
interstate commerce.

Note:
To perform intrastate check, enable the option
available in the Settings > HOS Preferences
(however this check is optional). The user has the
ability to whether or not perform to the checking.

Also, it is important for the driver to monitor the cycle used for the past 7 or 8 days.

automatically populated with the current location information of the user. If there
is no GPS fix, the Location field will remain blank, in this instance; you must
manually input the relevant details. Location is a required field and must contain at
least 5 characters upon adding or editing an event.

Location records as street address if driver is in (1) Canadian cycle; or (2) vehicle
used is in AOBRD mode and 'Display Street Address for AOBRD Mode' option is
enabled in Account Settings > App Controls. For driver whose (3) vehicle used is in
ELD mode, location records the closest city with less than 5,000 population in all

Proposal, which was published on March 28, 2014, that mandates ELDs for most
drivers of CMVs that currently log. When a vehicle is turned off in Personal
Conveyance (PC), the driver will be asked if he or she would like to stay in PC once
the vehicle is started again. If no choice is made to continue in PC, the app will
automatically transition into Driving. Off Road, on the other hand, means that the
vehicle is running on rough terrain. Lastly, Yard Moves, has been established under
a mandate which allows driver or personnel to perform duties like moving trucks
around the home yard by establishing a single set of thresholds for all ELDs in an
On Duty, not Driving status without triggering the device by reaching the
thresholds.

Auto Events
The ELD automatically records the driving time when the vehicle is in motion by setting
duty status to driving for the driver unless, before the vehicle is in motion, the driver has
set the duty status to off-duty and indicates personal use of CMV, in which case duty
status must remain off-duty until drivers indication of the driving condition ends.

Events such as Power On, Power
Off, Driving and OnDuty are
automatically created when
connecting to a device. Auto
events created were recorded
and displayed on the Events
history list indicated with a note
Automatic Transition.
(These events are also displayed
in the Portal)

If vehicle remains stationary for

Crossing Boundaries
The border crossing calculation uses the VBUS GPS coordinates if they are available, and
the android coordinates if they are not. The following instances happens when the
driver crossed boundaries between Canada and US (vice versa):
a. If the GPS coordinates are changed to a different state or province, a remark
event will be recorded in the driver log.

b. If the current location is in Canada, the driving rules will automatically switched
to Canadian rules. Similarly, if the location is in the US, the driving rules
automatically switched to US rules.

5.3 Malfunction and Data Diagnostic Events
At each instance when an ELD malfunction or data diagnostic event is detected or cleared
by the ELD, the ELD records the event. The recorded malfunctions and data diagnostic
events are inconsistencies found while monitoring the app/ELD against FMCSA
compliance requirements. These instances are indicated in the application header and in
the Android notification toolbar with the letters M and D, respectively.

Note: The ELD Data Diagnostic indicator provides notification of active data diagnostics events applicable
to the active driver. The Data Diagnostics D icon will flash in amber color if there are new active Data
Diagnostics events that is not yet reviewed by the driver and will only turn back to white once the Data
Diagnostic dialog is closed after being reviewed by the driver. There will also be a notification in the
Android toolbar indicating a malfunction or a data diagnostic event.

The Malfunction and Data
Diagnostic events note can also
be edited on the edit log screen.
Tap the Clear button to clear the
malfunction or data diagnostic
event detected.
