The Closest Thing to Paper Logs has Arrived.
If you’re an owner-operator who wants more control over your logs, don’t buy an ELD when you can use an AOBRD. Our AOBRD product makes it easy for you to transition from paper logs to e-logs. With HOS Reporter Pro, you can edit your logs and your log edits are not sent to law enforcement. If you’re interested in more flexibility and control over your hours of service, getting started is simple. What’s important to know is that:
- HOS Reporter Pro’s AOBRD must be installed prior to December 18th, 2017 – Don’t miss the deadline!
- It’s grandfathered in for use until December 16th, 2019
- It’s fully mandate compliant with the DOT/FMCSA
- And because we offer a 2-in-1 driver friendly compliance solution, you can seamlessly transitions it an ELD when you’re ready – no additional hardware is required

SIMPLIFYING THE ELD MANDATE
| AOBRD means Automatic-On-Board-Recording-Device and must be installed before December 18th of 2017 and may be used until December 16th of 2019. | ELD means Electronic Logging Device and provides e-Logs under the current regulations. This means more data sent during stops and potentially more citations. |

- How to transmit information to law enforcement
- How Record of Duty Status (RODS) must be graphically displayed on an ELD
It also allows RODS files to be transferred electronically for a road-side inspection stop or a weigh station inspection. Anyone required to keep RODS will be required to comply. Fleets that still comply with existing exemptions, such as short haul will not be required to have an ELD.
