How to check if a company card is 'locked'

Updated this week

🚨 If a tachograph device is not 'Locked' with a company card, you might get a fine from the respective authorities. It can also lead to tachograph file download failures or downloads of files with missing data.

  1. In the Tachograph solution ➜ Tachograph data downloads section go to the "Vehicles" tab.

  2. Look for the 'Locked with company card' column.

  3. Check the status for each vehicle:

    • ⬜ Locked: This means the tachograph device in the vehicle has been 'locked' with a compatible company card and also, the vehicle and company card are in the same depot.

    • 🟨 No data: This means we don't have any information about the locking status because remote downloads have never been successful.

    • 🟥 Not locked: The tachograph device in the vehicle hasn't been 'locked' with a company card.

    • 🟥 Warning: The tachograph device in the vehicle is locked with a company card, but the remote downloads could fail because, either:

      • The tacho device in the vehicle is locked with a company card not compatible with any cards currently added to the platform (it's most likely locked with a company card that belongs to a different company).

      • Or, the tachograph device in the vehicle is locked with a known card, but the company card and the vehicle are placed in different depots, so the remote download process could have issues.
