A system for handling a driving while disconnected event. One example includes an electronic logging device configured to be connected to a vehicle and a mobile device. The mobile device includes an electronic processor configured to determine a connection status between the mobile device and the electronic logging device; determine movement of the mobile device; and determine whether the mobile device is connected to the electronic logging device based on the connection status. In response to determining the mobile device is not connected to the electronic logging device, the electronic processor generates driving information associated with a user of the mobile device and movement of the mobile device; transmits the driving information to an external device; and generates a user-perceivable notification to connect the mobile device to the electronic logging device.
G07C 5/08 - Registering or indicating performance data other than driving, working, idle, or waiting time, with or without registering driving, working, idle, or waiting time
H04W 4/44 - Services specially adapted for particular environments, situations or purposes for vehicles, e.g. vehicle-to-pedestrians [V2P] for communication between vehicles and infrastructures, e.g. vehicle-to-cloud [V2C] or vehicle-to-home [V2H]
A transportation placard system including a holder including a recess for receiving a placard and a placard fastener engaged with the holder. The placard fastener includes a retaining arm including a placard engagement portion and a retaining tab. The placard fastener further includes a base including a first spring arm including a first downwardly extending claw, a second spring arm including a second downwardly extending claw, and an elongate portion positioned between the first spring arm and the second spring arm. The first spring arm and the elongate portion form a first cavity. The second spring arm and the elongate portion form a second cavity. The retaining tab is positioned within the first cavity and the second cavity.
A placard system for use in the transportation industry. The placard system includes a holder including a cavity and a placard fastener mounting hole. The cavity is configured to receive a placard. The placard fastener mounting hole is spaced from an opening of the cavity and defining an axis of rotation. The placard system further includes a placard fastener engaged with the holder and swingable about the axis of rotation between a closed position in which the placard fastener blocks a portion of the opening of the cavity and an open position in which the placard fastener is spaced from the opening of the cavity. The placard fastener includes a planar base portion including a mounting hole, an engagement portion configured to engage the holder or the placard, and an actuation portion.
Disclosed is a logging device events generator, comprising an electronic processor configured to receive and process the telemetric data to extract a subset of data points; receive driver input from a mobile device, determine at least one event value based on data; generate at least one of a logging device event from a predetermined set of logging device events based on the at least one event value, the logging device event including an event type code and an event code based on the driver input and the subset of data points, the at least one of the logging device event including a first logging device event being on-duty, off-duty, sleeper, and driving, the event type code indicating a type of an event, and the event code providing further information about the event; and send the at least one of the logging device event to the mobile device.
An electronic logging device dongle. In one example, dongle includes a housing and a circuit board located within the housing. The housing includes circuitry configured to perform at least part of a driver compliance determination and to wirelessly communicate with a portable device. The dongle also includes a connector electrically connected to the circuit board. The connector includes a plurality of pins, and is configured to be mated to a plurality of adaptors. Each of the plurality of adaptors is structured to mechanically map pins of a vehicle OBD port to the plurality of pins of the connector.
