Since the market launch in November 2007 the FleetBoard driver card download has succesfully demonstrated its advantages in thousand of downloads.
Independant of the installation of the digital tachograph, the driver card can be directly downloaded in the vehicle. After inserting the driver card into the card slot on the FleetBoard on-board computer, all data from the driver card is sent to the transport office at the push of a button, without the driver or vehicle having to return to base. If a GPRS link is not available, the computer can temporarily store as many as twelve driver cards. The driver card data including the digital signature, are archived, with two backups, in the secure Daimler Computing Centre for up to 24 months and can be read using any hours' analysis package via the FleetBoard interface.
