ELD Health Status
The BIT ELD app constantly monitors its health status and provides an
indication when warnings or errors are active.
When a diagnostic warning is present, a triangle with an “!” will be
present in the top-right corner of every screen. When a malfunction is
active a circle with an “!” will be present.
Tap these icons to see a list of active diagnostic warnings and
malfunctions. The table below summarizes the meaning of each
diagnostic warning and malfunction, but more details about the
specific conditions that trigger these messages can be found in the
ELD mandate.
