Orion eLog ELD

About Orion eLog ELD Android App

Orion eLog provides Driver Hours of Service, electronic driving log records, driver behavior, and diagnostic maintenance interrogation and reporting. Orion eLog a standardized single-step compilation for the driver’s ELD records and initiation of the data transfer to authorized safety officials when requested during a roadside inspection. The official accesses Inspect Daily Logs and taps on INSPECT ON-SCREEN. The data is displayed on the screen for the one or more vehicles that comprise the Hours of Service for the individual driver. Alternatively, the Driver data can be emailed to the official by entering an email address. Orion eLog offers a unique capability in that the data from the ECU is extracted from the J1939 CANBUS and transmitted to a central transceiver located within or on the dashboard of the vehicle. This transceiver then communicates via Bluetooth with the Orion eLog mobile app installed on a smart phone, tablet or computer. If Bluetooth is not turned-on or available, a warning message is presented to the Driver. Initialization consists of the Driver either entering an eLog transceiver code in the mobile app or using the mobile app to scan a QR code placard inside the vehicle. This procedure automatically pairs the transceiver, the CANBUS device, and the mobile app that is unique to the vehicle-driver combination. Orion eLog also sends data to the Orion Cloud for reporting and data history using server-side tools within the Orion Portal. This arrangement allows for fully-duplex communications whereby the Orion Portal can send additional instructions to the CANBUS in the event of a malfunction indicator.
