    Easy way to tell... is it a real old school odometer with numbers that roll or is it just a digital display? A digital readout just displays whatever number the ecm tells it to. The ones with numbers that roll over work off a pulse and have to be set to the pulse rate

    It's digital.

    I'd call kw to be sure but i bet it directly reads from the ecm.

    We've got 18 trucks on JJKeller's AOBRD. Seldom a day goes by that something doesn't get fouled up, whether it's a tablet not connecting with a truck or a tablet losing connection with Verizon service. Throw in driver errors and it's a full time job keeping them fixed..

    Have you noticed if your JJKeller units are reporting the same mileage traveled as what the odometer says? I believe all of our units are still way off and I've been told this could be a major problem for both the IFTA reports and at our next roadside inspection (if the officer notices).

    We have 18 trucks on JJK and have to recalibrate trucks quite often. That's why we still use paper to keep track of trip miles. Some day they may get it fixed, but not holding my breath..

    We should probably start comparing hardware, firmware and software versions. I have been on JJK(forced from RM) for about a month now. My hardware version is 2.5 and the software version is xxxxxx.168. I haven't touched the odometer calibration since 03/15/2018, it was 3/10 of a mile off. This is a 2012 Cascadia w/ an ISX using the j1939 port.

    I'm wondering if our older (2007) trucks have anything to do with it. Maybe the ECM is not as compatible with the software programming?

    How was the transition to ERoad?

    I think I still hold the record. I had two days that I drove over 55,000,000 miles. Try doing that on paper logs.:rolleyes:
