You can change your operating zone from US to Canada or vice versa or you can change your cycle from e.g. Canada North to Canada South (or vice versa) or from a 7-day to -14-day or Oil field if you meet the relevant off-duty requirements.
- Sign in to the Timeclock application using the red plug.
Rule set changes are only allowed when signing in using a plug because the rule set changes need to be written to the plug for the sync.
- Make sure the Available Hours tab is selected at the top.
- Click on your currently selected rule set to change it.
- Wait for the synchronization to complete.
- Select the new rule set from the list made available to you by the administrator in On-Road IoT. Read Change driver rule set to learn how to choose a rule set for a driver.
- Click Save.
- Your new rule set will now be displayed.
If new rule sets have been made available to you by the administrator, you will be notified on this screen with the message Available rule sets updated” as shown on the example.
Cannot change your rule set?
It is important to remember that you need to meet certain legislative off-duty requirements before switching between cycles. (Operating zone changes do not require any off-duty.)
If the MiX ELD does not allow you to switch between cycles, make sure that you adhere to the following off-duty requirements:
- Changing from 14-day rule set to 7-day requires 72 hours continuous off duty.
- Changing 7 day to 14 day requires 36 hours of continuous off duty.
- Changing from an Oil field to 7 or 14-day requires 72 hours of continuous off duty.
- Changing from the 14-day rule set to Oil field (same or different zone) - no off duty required.
- Changing from the 7-day rule set to Oil field (same or different zone) - no off duty required.
