    Hey all. How the hell do I use this thing? Not really trained to use it at orientation. And of course there's no manual in the truck for it, AND the manual on the DT is no help at all of course.

    i miss the Qualcomm!

    How is the manual on the DT no help at all? It clearly spells everything out. Not sure how to explain it any simpler. If you can use a computer to get on here you should be able to figure it out.

    I never really found it that difficult. Had to learn from scratch also as I was trained on a dedicated account where we hardly used the thing.

    At the Dallas orientation, we did get some training on the driver tech, and a handout to go with the training. Best thing is when you get to a terminal, or meet up with someone who has been with USX for a while, ask for some tips on driver tech use.
