The new VDO RoadLog Electronic On Board Recorder (EOBR) developed by Continental Commercial Vehicles & Aftermarket allows drivers to record and report Hours of Service (HOS) in On-duty, Driving, Sleeper Berth and Off-duty categories, and provides a warning if allowable limits will be exceeded.
The electronic log features a built-in printer that creates an instant paper report of daily logbook data so drivers can complete roadside inspections more quickly. RoadLog can also provide compliance data, and at the completion of a trip the driver can download the data to a USB Drive Key, which includes hours of service, vehicle inspections, shipping documents and asset updates, the maker added.
VDO RoadLog installs in as little as 15 minutes and its software is expected to meet anticipated DOT compliance requirements. Upcoming updates for the system will include reporting on IFTA mileage and IRP miles. and compliance with rules for Canada, Alaska and oil field operations.
