Driver Options; Introduction - Navman MDT 860 User Manual

6 Driver Options

6.1 Introduction

Driver Options contains the functionality to support the Driver ID and Driver Hours features.
Note: These features are enabled over the air from the OnlineAVL application.
When either the Driver ID or Driver Hours features are enabled, in order to use the MDT 860 the driver
needs to be logged on.
Logging on consists of entering a Personal Identification Number (PIN) into the MDT 860, which is then
checked over the air by the OnlineAVL server. A successful PIN results in the driver's name being sent
by the server to the MDT 860. If no match is found for the entered PIN, the log on fails and the MDT 860
continues to beep until a correct log on is recorded.
• The requirement for the driver to be logged on in order to access all services of the system is
configurable from the OnlineAVL application
• When a vehicle with no-one logged on is detected to be in use (ignition has been turned on), the
MDT 860 will beep until a logon is confirmed
The Driver Hours feature makes it possible to monitor drivers' activities and to record their working time
as well as the duration of breaks taken. This, in turn, makes it possible to monitor and to report driver's
compliance with relevant industry and health and safety regulations.
