My company uses Peoplenet AOBRD. I know with ELD's you are supposed to have an instruction card to give a DOT officer when inspected. I don't have one with my AOBRD and can't find anything saying whether that is required or not. I have yet to be inspected with this company and want to be prepared just in case. Thanks in advance for any answers.
Is instruction card required for AOBRD's or just ELD's?

Instruction card for the driver and logs in case of a failure. That's what's supposed to be there.

I have the logs but no instruction card. Just was not clear if this was required for AORBD's or just ELD's. I'll need to call safety and see about getting that. Thanks!

ELD or AOBRD, it is a requirement to have the in cab instruction card on you.

Aobr and eld requirements are slightly diffrent. All you need for an aobr is enough blank logs to recreate for the trip. Eld's need 7 logs.
Only need one card for aobr, describing how to retrieve data. Eld's need 3.
Here is the actual regs for aobr from 395.15
(g) On-board information. Each commercial motor vehicle must have on-board the commercial motor vehicle an information packet containing the following items:
(1) An instruction sheet describing in detail how data may be stored and retrieved from an automatic on-board recording system; and
(2) A supply of blank driver's records of duty status graph-grids sufficient to record the driver's duty status and other related information for the duration of the current trip.deathB4decaf, brian991219, Bank_Lbr and 2 others Thank this. -

My unit is Qualcomm, came with two laminated cards in the box.
Better believe you need that card. It's supposed to be so the occifer can retrieve your logs.
I keep one right in the cover of my registration, and permit book, first thing they see when they open it.Truckermania Thanks this. -
