Ehubo/Tubo User Guide
INTRODUCTION
This document provides a brief overview of all the Ehubo and Tubo operating modes, and explains
what to do if the Ehubo enters into an unauthorised state and what is required to have the Ehubo
authorised again.
NORMAL OPERATION
When the Ehubo/Tubo is operating normally (after being installed and registered with NZTA) the Power
LED (Green Light) will be on. This indicates that the Ehubo/Tubo has external power applied. The
LCD screen will display distance measured since install and any current RUC licences.
To aid readability of the screen, the LCD backlight will illuminate for 10 minutes when the ignition is
turned on or off and also when the vehicle comes to a stop after travelling. The Tubo backlight will
illuminate for 10 minutes when the trailer is connected or disconnected and also when the trailer comes
to a stop after travelling.
If the vehicle has more than one RUC licence e.g. a Distance and an Additional Licence then the
screen will rotate the details of each RUC Licence every 60 seconds. The progress bar will indicate
the amount of time remaining until the next page will be displayed. Licences purchased for a future
distance reading will be displayed on the “Pending Licence Screen”.

beep three times to inform the driver that the Ehubo is unauthorised.

The Ehubo will display the distance, date, time and location of when the fault/tamper event occurred,

compliant with RUC legislation at all times.
