As a driver, pairing a vehicle in the E-logs mobile app can be done in simple steps. Being paired to your vehicle ensures that the ELD records the hours you are driving for the day. You must be 1/4 of a mile from a vehicle to pair.

Pairing your Vehicle to the E-Logs Mobile App

  • Open the E-Logs Mobile app.

  • From the dashboard, select Pair Vehicle.

  • A list of nearby vehicles within the 1/4 mile radius of the ELD's last known location will display for pairing.

    • The nearby vehicles will display a status label if they are Driving, Out of Lock, or Unplugged.

  • Select the vehicle for pairing.

    • If the vehicle's ELD is unplugged, you cannot pair it with the vehicle as it will not record logs.

    • If your vehicle is driving, you cannot unpair from it.

    • If someone else is paired to a vehicle, you can reassign the asset to yourself, as long as the vehicle is not moving. A message will prompt confirming you'd like to reassign the asset to yourself. Click Yes to reassign. A message will also prompt the other driver.

  • Once paired, your vehicle is connected and ready to log hours.

Unpairing your Vehicle to the E-Logs Mobile App

  • Open the E-Logs Mobile app.

  • From the dashboard, select Paired Vehicle.

  • Select the Unpair setting.

    • Note: You cannot unpair to a vehicle that is moving.

  • The vehicle is no longer paired with the E-Logs mobile app.
