Change My HOS Driving Status

TRANSFLO® Mobile+ supports Driver Hours of Service (HOS) when using a TRANSFLO® ELD device. All of the features in the Transflo HOS app are automatically integrated and available to you in the mobile+ app.

ON, DRIVE, SB, YM, PC, OFF

If you have an active ELD and you configured the HOS features to recognize your truck, the app automatically switches you to ON DUTY DRIVING mode when it detects the following driving pattern:

12 mph for at least five (5) seconds

The app changes back to ON DUTY NOT DRIVING when driving has stopped for at least 5:00 minutes (300 seconds).

Tip: To learn more about the Transflo HOS, ELD, and Telematics features, see https://knowledge.transflo.com/telematics/Default.htm. The HOS, ELD, and Telematics features are integrated inside your mobile app; however, we document these features in a separate knowledge base online. This KB for the Mobile+ app also includes all the HOS, ELD, and Telematics articles; however, if you only want to focus and search exclusively on ELD, HOS, and Telematics content, you can switch over to the Transflo HOS, ELD, and Telematics Knowledge Base.

  1. Tap the center dial or wherever your fleet has configured the HOS status to appear. When you are logged in to HOS, the center dial or HOS menu on the Dashboard shows your current duty status. On the dashboard, tap the HOStile.

    The HOS Login item may be in a different menu in your app depending on your fleet configuration.

    The color of the bar on the Electronic Log (HOS) menu item changes when approaching an on-duty violation. When in motion, your screen is locked. When you have safely stopped driving, swipe the It's OK, I certify I'm not driving slider:

  2. The next screen shows your current HOS duty status in one of the following colors:

    ON: On-Duty (■ yellow) This status means you are on duty and on the clock (for example, inspecting your truck) but have not started driving yet.

    D: Driving (■ green)

    SB: Sleeper Berth (■ red) Sometimes misspelled sleeper birth. We note that here so the search feature will still go to this help topic.

    YM: Yard Move (■ orange) For example, you are just using your truck to move pallets or find parking.

    PC: Personal Conveyance (■ gray) Sometimes misspelled personal convenience. We note that here so the search feature will still go to this help topic.

    OFF: Off-Duty (■ gray)

  3. To change your HOS status, tap any of the status buttons. For example, tap ON.

  4. Tap Close in the top left corner of the screen to return to the Mobile+ dashboard.

  5. Your new HOS status shows on the HOS center dial or the Electronic Log (HOS) square tile on tablets.
