-
- Active Driver - The active driver is the person who intends to drive the vehicle. All the information about the trip (e.g., duration, driving time, events) will be associated with the active driver. When you log in as an active driver, you will automatically be in the On Duty (Not Driving) state.
- Co-Driver - The co-driver is the driver who is intending to drive next, or later in the shift. No information about the trip is logged for the co-driver but the status is usually On Duty (Not Driving) unless they are in the sleeper berth while the active HOS driver is driving.
- Change rule-set - If your administrator has enabled your ELD to make use of multiple rule sets (to switch between operating zones or cycles) you can tap this button to select the rule set that you will be operating in.
- Remove the red driver plug only when prompted.
- After logging in and out of the MiX ELD, the ELD summary screen will be displayed showing a quick status overview of the ELD-compliance actions.
- Tap Close to access the Home screen.
