Stoneridge tachograph: Significant features of the SE5000 Smart 2

The SE5000 Smart 2 Stoneridge tachograph features a wide array of new functionalities, such as automated departure and destination country input when the card is kept inserted overnight and a simplified procedure for manual entries. What's more, companies can update the software to ensure compliance with future legislative changes and adapted functionalities.

One of the standout features of the SE5000 Smart 2 Stoneridge Tachograph is its automated departure and destination country input, a convenient feature that activates when the card is left inserted overnight. This simplifies the process for drivers and reduces manual input errors. Additionally, manual entry procedures have been streamlined, further enhancing usability for both drivers and fleet managers.

Stoneridge prioritizes adaptability with the SE5000 Smart 2, offering software updates to accommodate future legislative changes and evolving functionalities. This commitment to flexibility ensures that companies can maintain compliance with regulations and leverage the latest advancements in tachograph technology.

This Stoneridge Tachograph is designed to provide drivers with easy access to essential information such as driving times, rest periods, and breaks. Simultaneously, fleet managers can effortlessly monitor their fleet's data to ensure compliance and efficiency. Stoneridge supports fleet management efforts with the OPTAC3 web-based tachograph analysis system, empowering companies to analyze driver and vehicle data effectively.

This innovative SE5000 Smart 2 features a user-friendly interface akin to its predecessor, facilitating a smooth transition for drivers. Updates have been implemented to accommodate specific scenarios, such as rest times during ferry crossings and crew handovers. Moreover, the introduction of a 12-day rule for international coach trips enhances regulatory compliance.

Fleets benefit from remote card download capabilities, contingent on telematics compatibility, and the ability to verify company card locking details via printout or display. Workshops can easily update the Stoneridge tachograph software and access tools for data analysis, including the OPTAC3 system, ensuring optimal performance and compliance.

Prepared for the future with the SE5000 Smart 2

The SE5000 Smart 2 tachograph has a GNSS function that automatically records when national borders are crossed without any action being required on the part of the driver. The tachograph has an integrated Bluetooth/ITS interface, which gives drivers control over their personal data and allows external devices such as smartphones to access the tachograph for downloading data.

Here at Stoneridge, we understand that service centers need to prepare for the mandatory retrofitting of tachographs by the end of 2024 at the latest. We will be providing training and support for our Optimo² UGC functionality which helps service center engineers to collect, exchange and reuse required configurations for the retrofit. Our Optimo² tool also provides regular software updates and is compatible with Smart 2 tachographs from version 7.0 onwards.

In short, the SE5000 Smart 2 tachograph offers a user-friendly, efficient solution, ensuring compliance with the new tachograph requirements and optimising your fleet.

Tachograph symbols and meanings

Tachograph symbols play a crucial role in ensuring drivers and fleet operators stay compliant with EU or AETR regulations. These symbols are more than just icons; they help accurately record driving, working, and resting times, which are essential for road safety and fair competition in the transport industry.

 

Why is it important to understand tachograph symbols?

By using tachograph symbols, you can accurately record your activities, meet legal requirements, and reduce the risk of fines. Incorrect usage can result in non-compliance, leading to costly fines during roadside inspections. Persistent violations may lead to the suspension of licenses or fleet restrictions.

Understanding the symbols and their meanings improves road safety. By accurately tracking rest periods, these symbols help prevent fatigue. Understanding the symbols on your tachograph helps you as a driver or fleet manager monitor productivity and ensure smooth operations.

Main tachograph symbols and meanings

There are a number of tachograph symbols that come up often and whose definition you need to know when working with tachographs.

  1. Driving: Represented by a steering wheel, this symbol is used when the driver is operating the vehicle.
  2. Other Work: Depicted as work tools, this symbol is for activities other than driving, such as loading or unloading.
  3. Break/Rest: Represented by a chair or bed, this symbol indicates designated breaks or daily rest periods.
  4. Availability: Shown as a square with a diagonal line, this is for periods when the driver is on standby but not working.
  5. Maintenance Warnings: Indicate when the tachograph requires service or calibration.
  6. Error Symbols: Highlight issues such as card malfunctions or incomplete data.
  7. Ferry/Train Crossing: This indicates when a driver is traveling by train or boat. To the UK or to Sweden, for example. This movement is recorded, and the driver can move the vehicle (on the boat, off the train, etc.) without this taking away from his rest time.

New symbols on your tachograph

The SE5000 Smart 2 features user-friendly pictograms for easy use of the tachograph:

  • Load operation
  • Unload operation
  • Simultaneous load/unload operation
  • Load type: passengers
  • Load type: goods
  • Load type: undefined load type
  • Position where the vehicle has crossed the border between two countries
