How does it work?A Remote Download Device isinstalled in each vehicle andconnected to the digital tachograph.The device manages theauthentication of the Company Cardand download process for the DriverCard and Vehicle Unit data. Thedevice transmits the data via GPRS orWLAN over the Internet for analysisand reporting using Smartanalysis.
Smartdownload allows you to holdthe Company Card in your office. The process authenticates as if theCompany Card were in the vehicle so that the required files can bedownloaded and passed toSmartanalysis.
Once the schedule for downloadingdata has been set up everythinghappens automatically in thebackground with minimalintervention and management.
Smartdownload eliminates the needfor depot based download devices.Existing operators are saving 26 man-hours/vehicle/year usingSmartdownload.
What do I need?To take advantage of Smartdownloadyou will need the following:
1 Smartanalysis for analysis andreporting of Driver Card andVehicle Unit tachograph data.
2 A Smartcard reader in the office forauthenticating the Company Card.
3 Remote Download Devicesinstalled in each vehicle.
4 Digital tachograph (VDO 1.3 or Stoneridge Rev 7.0).
5 Connection via WLAN or GPRS to the Internet.
Automatic Remote Download of Digital Tachograph DataManaging and controlling the process for downloading tachograph data can be time
consuming and a real headache when drivers, vehicles and depots are spread around
the country.
Smartdownload is the new way of collecting Driver Card and Vehicle Unit data from
digital tachographs for analysis and reporting using Smartanalysis.
It enables operators to download Driver Card Files and Vehicle Unit data automatically
to a set schedule, safeguarding compliance, cutting costs and minimising time spent
managing the whole process.
“We decided to use automatic remote download of digital tachograph data to
safeguard our compliance and reduce the man hours spent managing the
process and downloading data from the vehicle. Using remote download is
saving us around ten man-hours per week. The tachograph data is downloaded
in the background for analysis and reporting using Smartanalysis from Exentra.”

GPRS Data CommunicationsGPRS enables data to be transferred to Smartanalysis whilst
the vehicle is being used in your normal day-to-day
operations outside of the depot. GPRS is the ideal solution
for operators that wish to transfer data from any location in
Europe. A SIM card will be required for the GPRS
communications. Exentra will supply them for £100 per
annum per vehicle (£8.33/month per vehicle) inclusive of
all data charges.
Remote Download Devices also support WLAN. However
they will need to be configured for your network and will
only work within your depot WLAN coverage area. Please
contact Exentra if you are interested in this option.
