    PC on Paper is showing Line 1 and a comment.

    PC on the AORBD/ELD - should show line 1 and a comment.

    Yard Move on the AORBD/ELD - should show on line 4 either grayed out or Dashed line showing YM.

    Yard Move and PC software under the Admin part should note a distance.. Admin can change the distance, the <5mph trigger on the ELD should not be in effect to trigger a line 3 event. If you go beyond the distance then it should trigger a line 3 event. On the AORBD, you can set the speed up to 35 mph before a line 3 event happens.


    But note - in a Yard Move each time the ignition is turned off/on you have to place back into Yard Move. It is not automatic.

    How does the electronic logging device reflect personal conveyance when the personal conveyance status is selected and the commercial motor vehicle (CMV) is driven?

    When the personal conveyance status is selected (as allowed and configured by the motor carrier), the CMV’s location is recorded with a lower level of precision (i.e., an approximate 10-mile radius). Personal conveyance will be reflected on the ELD using a different style line (such as dashed or dotted line).

    By the way, BigRoad shows an annotated line for PC as off duty driving and drops it down to where line 5 would appear. Let's not split hairs here.

    Nothing in my post refers to any manufacture... it is posted under the FMCSA site and several others. What is wrong with giving correct information?

    If you do not like RM, then please keep your comments about RM out of the reference.

    Yes, default is to put you on duty when the truck moves or stops. Did you tell it what you wanted to do before moving the truck?

    PC defined as i know it. Starting point end point must be the same. Cant be under dispatch . Cant be hood to a trl.

    So if you need pc time tell dispatch not to dispatch you and drop your trl . When you return then dispatch the load
