So I did it correctly then?
Holy crap, I can be taught!!! LOL...
Now for the Mac 18 stuff.
Here's what I came up with
Local ETD 0930
Local ETA 1130
Midnight to Avail 11:30
Left on 14HR Workday 02:30
Of the HRS left on 14 how many can I Drive 02:30
HRS : Today (just above the yesterday, 2day ago, 3day ago) 00:00 I forget what this was for. I'll have to look in the book again...

So, if I had a DOT break in there I'd add the worked hours from the previous trip to my planned hours for the current trip?
Like; I worked 2 hours from 0000 to 0200, DOT break, then this current trip. So I'd put 13:30 on that HRS : TODAY line? -
-
I mean like if I had 2hours from a previous trip and this trip I'm planing had different PU DEL times.
0000-0200 from a previous trip
0200-1200 DOT break
Then this plan of 11.5 hours. (just assume that the PU/DEL times are for later in the day.)
That would equal 13.5 worked hours for the day.
I guess the question is what exactly goes in that "HRS : TODAY" line? -
-
Oh man!!! I gotta get to bed.
If you have anymore questions, I'll catch up in the morning. Worked all day running electric service to my barn. Like Arnie said, "I'll be back"!!! -
NP johnday!
Thanks so much for your help thus far!
Same to you GraniteState.
Beautiful!
Now, I only need to remember which macros to send and when.
I'm talking about the stuff other than the PU/DEL replies...
OK, so macro 18 with every trip plan OR the start of my day if on a multi day load.
Macro 6 goes out with each trailer change or when shutting down for the night.
If I'm going to be need my PU/DEL times changed, I'd send a macro 29 followed by a 18...
What others am I forgetting?
I suppose I should hit the sack as well.
I'll be sure to check back in the AM.
Thanks to you all yet again! -
Never a problem trying to help another driver.
You sound anxious to get going. It's too bad there can't be some sort of standardization with QualCom. I understand each company is different to a point, but do they all have to make it this difficult?
A nice thing about that new QC. IMO, it is a bit easier to read and use.
It's going to take a few times before you're comfortable with the system, just relax, and don't do like I did. I sat there with heartburn a number of times because I was too stubborn to make a phone call.
Once you get low on your hours, expect a message from the planners as to your hours for the last 8 days. I know, I know, you sent Mac 18 everyday. This was the only time I thought with SNI that the right hand didn't know what the left was doing.
I had 16 hours left once, and the planner couldn't understand why it would take me 3 days to drive 1100 miles. I think someone educated her about the HOS. Those were some of the few times that I thought WTF! -
