Combination of sleeper berth and off duty while taking 10 hours rest.

Please, correct me, if I am wrong but you can be in the sleeper berth and off duty while taking your 10 hour rest intermittently, without any limits. For example:




Let's not confuse it with the split sleeper berth break technique, which requires the 8 hour of uninterrupted sleeper berth.

Never mind. I figured it out. The graph is up there now.

 

Before the full ELD compliance, I either logged full 10 hours in the sleeper or off duty too.

Now, the graph you see reflects the reality. I was woken up by a loud, broken air drier truck and decided to PC to another spot to resume the rest. The PC shows off duty driving, and will not be edited back to sleeper. Then I started the engine on and off a few times to cook a meal and brew some coffee. The engine off and on status shows on the ELD log too.
Perhaps to make it look nicer, I should draw 10 hours off duty straight...? Would it be a false log though? I don't want to sound cynical...I am seriously debating it. Somehow I can't dislodge the stupid dilemma from my mind.

 

It is impossible to do full 10 hour sleeper with the PC in the middle of it. On the same token, I would like to avoid unnecessary questions from a zealous DOT cop about this or that of what I was doing during 10 hours off duty.

So if it is perfectly legal the way it is, I want to leave it intact.

 

But where does it say so...?

I have searched the FMCSA site to find a concrete definition of the 10 hour break and something that I could back up my presumption that the graph shown in the post #1 has no violation. A definition that would say that 10 hour break may consist of any multiple combination of sleeper birth and off duty time as long as those combinations build at least 10 hour uninterrupted time block. In order words, the 10 consecutive hours could be any combination of sleeper and off duty time.

I could not find anything with regard to that. I would not worry about it, if I knew that all of the law enforcement who has authority over me to inspect me and put me OOS knows agrees with that too.
The only thing of any use that I found there was in the Interstate Truck Driver's Guide to Hours of Service published by FMCSA.
...
If you drive a truck that has a sleeper berth that meets the requirements of the safety regulations, you may use it to get the required off-duty time in three ways: 1. You may spend time in your sleeper berth to get some, or all, of the 10 consecutive hours of off-duty time. When getting your 10 consecutive hours of off-duty time, what is most important is that you do not go on duty or drive during those 10 hours. At the end of the 10 consecutive hours of combined sleeper and/or off-duty time, your 11-hour driving and 14-hour duty-period limits would completely restart....

Even though it was published by FMCSA, this is still a guide book only. I wish there was a HOS bible book, not just summary of HOS on the FMCSA site,
