Check your hours of service information
This article describes how to use the dashboard to check your hours of service timers and how to use the various timers.
- 30-Minute Break Due timer - When your next break is
- Time Remaining timer - How much of your break is remaining
- Rest Until timer - How much longer you must rest to reset your daily or cycle timer
- Daily Driving timer - How much longer you can drive today
- Cycle On Duty timer - How much longer you can be on duty or driving within your cycle
- Since Daily Reset timer - How much longer you can be on duty today
The Dashboard screen displays your hours of service (HOS) data. The top row highlights your current active status (and sub status, if applicable).
Your status can be one of the following:
- OF: Off duty
- SB: Sleeper berth
- DR: On duty - driving
- ON: On duty - not driving
The timers indicate how much of your HOS time you have used or is remaining.
The timers are color coded to warn you of HOS violations:
- Blue: You are not in violation.
- Amber: You are within 30 minutes of a violation.
- Red: You are in violation or will be in violation if you start driving or go on duty.
30-Minute Break Due
If you are driving, this timer counts down from 8 hours to the next mandatory 30-minute break. To take the break, change your status to OF (off duty) or ON (on duty).
Time Remaining
This timer shows the remaining time of your mandatory, 30-minute rest break. It is displayed while you are either off duty or on duty, and it counts down from 30 minutes. When the time is up, you can continue to drive, provided you have sufficient driving time left.
Rest Until
This timer is relevant if you chose the Daily Reset or Cycle Reset sub statuses. After the 30-minute break period, the timer counts down the time required to reset (for example, 10 hours for a daily reset).
Daily Driving
This timer tracks your daily driving time, either used or remaining. The timer starts when you first start driving for the day. You can reset this timer only after you log 10 hours of off-duty time or if you use the split break provision.
You can choose whether to display hours used or hours remaining:
- Select the Since Daily Reset timer.
- Select either “Used” or “Remaining”.
The Used timer counts up from 0:00 and shows how much time you have spent driving today.
The Remaining timer counts down from your permitted driving time and shows how long you can continue to drive today. Your permitted driving time depends on your rule set.
Cycle On Duty
This timer displays the time that you can continue to be on duty or driving within your weekly cycle. The permitted time depends on your rule set.
Since Daily Reset
This timer tracks your daily on-duty time, either used or remaining. The timer starts when you first go on duty for the day. You can reset this timer only after you log 10 hours of off-duty time or if you use the split break provision.
You can choose whether to display hours used or hours remaining:
- Select the Since Daily Reset timer.
- Select either “Used” or “Remaining”.
The Used timer counts up from 0:00 and shows how much time you have spent on duty today.
The Remaining timer counts down from your permitted on-duty time and shows how long you may continue to be on duty today. Your permitted on-duty time depends on your rule set.
