When TABLET is removed from the docking station, the system provides access to the following applications:
• Messaging
• eDriver Logs
• Device Settings & Diagnostics
Other areas of the product which require communication with the Onboard Computer may not be accessible and the short cuts will be grayed out.
NOTE: The device must in the docking station in order for
the driver to Logout of the system, or perform a Duty Status change.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The vehicle should not be moved
