logs edits (edits request by support

personnel)

During login, if support personnel have

requested edits in your logs, you will

be prompted to review those edits and

accept or reject them.

UDA Unassigned Driving Account

driver logged in, RoadLog will still track

the periods driven in order to assign

this period to a driver later. During your

right, where you can either accept this

driving period as yours or refuse to

accept it.

your Driver Logs from the back ofce.

Duty Status Change

Driver can select any duty status

change by selecting “Status Change”

button from the Driver Overview screen

and selecting any of the statuses

available.

In case there is more than one driver

logging in, the driver with intention to

drive should select “Active Driver.” The

other driver can select “On Duty” “Not

Driving ,”or “Sleeper Berth.” “Personal

Use” and “Yard Moves” are available

in an extended menu indicated by this

button:

Automatic Duty Status Change

(5 mph = Driving)

Warning: When the vehicle starts

moving at a speed above 5 miles

per hour, the Active Driver’s status

is immediately and automatically

changed from “Off Duty” to “Driving.”

If the driver is done for the day, it is

highly recommended that they log out

of the RoadLog completely, to avoid

someone else (e.g. another driver or

mechanic) tripping the “Off Duty” time

into “On Duty” when they move the

vehicle.

A notication bar informs the user

about this change.

Duty Status Change Alert

If the user remains in “Driving,” RoadLog

will prompt the driver to change duty

status.

Location Indication

Note: The vehicle location at duty

status change is captured automatically

by GPS, accurate to within 3 yards.

RoadLog associates this GPS location

with the closest large population

location based on Census Data. It may

happen that this location is further away

from you than another location that

you know is closer. For example, if the

vehicle is in Fogelsville, PA the system

will label it as 7 miles West of Allentown,

PA since Allentown, PA is the location

with the larger population and better

known to law enforcement. This is

consistent with requirements in FMCSA

ELD regulations.

Tasks

Entering “Trailer Numbers and

“Shipment Documents” is required

as” part of your HOS record. Use the

specic buttons to perform those

actions.

“Vehicle Fueling” entries are optional.

However, if used they help in preparing

accurate records for IFTA ling.

Some versions of RoadLog allow for

instant communication with the dispatch

ofce via the “Messages” button. Also,

the dispatcher can assign a load to a

vehicle remotely. This information is

available from the “Loads” button level.
