Have never noticed omnitracs kicking me to on duty when I shut the truck off, I will have to pay attention today, and see what it does.
EDIT: Just shut the truck off after driving a little bit and omnitracs kept me in "driving" status? Close to 1 minute then I decided to switch it manually...Last edited: Oct 5, 2020

On the mcp they had numerous issues with editing, which they've been fixing over the last year, but should never have been issues in the first place.
For their tablet software - I haven't looked at it in over a year, probably closer to two years. When if first came out we got three days into the beta test and had to suspend testing because nothing was working right. A month later we restarted, and there were still issues. The biggest was what appeared on the driver's screen was different than what was in the erod file. It was also a pain to use - one of the drivers in the test group flat out said "if this is the software we have to use, I'm going to quit".
Using Omni eld on the mcp isn't too bad for the driver, but Platform Science is a lot easier. Omni also has issues playing nicely with other software.JonJon78 Thanks this. -
I use Blue Ink Tech's BIT ELD. It's simple, no subscription and great customer service.
You should also search the forum. I think there was a detailed comparison previously posted. -
