CalAmp Delivers Turnkey ELD Solution to Trucking Industry

CalAmp, a telematics pioneer leading transformation in a global connected economy, announced the V-Series ELD designed to enable the trucking industry to meet the December 18, 2017 deadline of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration electronic logging device (“ELD”) mandate.

The three-part ELD bundle will be offered with a choice of a CalAmp or third-party Hours of Service (HoS) applications.

To reduce cost, compatibility and connectivity issues common with other offerings, CalAmp developed the V-Series ELD as a self-install bundle that includes a removable tablet, custom designed cradle with embedded telematics and a programmable LED malfunction indicator.

“With over seven million connections to our device management platform, we have deep expertise in the complexity of vehicle integration and purpose-built our V-Series ELD to be flexible with easy installation and fewer points of failure,” said Justin Schmid, senior vice president and general manager of CalAmp’s telematics systems business.

The plug-and-play design minimizes the number of components and streamlines integration between the vehicle engine, telematics device, user interface, compliant software and reliable cellular connectivity.

“With our ELD solution, companies can meet mandate requirements and leverage a broad set of applications on our award-winning OneView platform,” added Wade Wilson, chief executive officer for Pedigree Technologies.
