SmartCard System
Introduction
The DriveRight
®
SmartCard System allows you to download DriveRight data
from any DriveRight device using the SmartCard On-Board Reader (#8105),
transport it to a computer easily using the SmartCard Desktop Reader (#8108)
and SmartCards (#8112), and also transfer administrative data from the com-
puter to the DriveRight.
The SmartCard System can also be used with the optional Starter Interrupter
Kit (#8116) to prevent unauthorized drivers from using a vehicle or vehicles.
The DriveRight Fleet Management Software (#8186) should be used to set up
and maintain the SmartCard System operations. It is also required to configure
the SmartCards. All DriveRight 600 (#8156) and 600E (#8126) models work
with the SmartCard system.
Before You Install
Because the specific installation of the SmartCard System hardware can vary
considerably from vehicle to vehicle, these instructions are intended to be a
general guide for the professional installer or experienced mechanic. We
strongly recommend that you read the entire manual before beginning the
installation. Be sure you understand each procedure thoroughly before starting
that procedure.
CAUTION: Installing SmartCard hardware or any of the DriveRight components in a vehicle
can be hazardous to both the installer and to the vehicle’s electrical system. This
manual assumes you are aware of the inherent dangers of working in and around
a vehicle and have a working understanding of electricity. If you are uneasy about
any part of the installation, please have an ASE-certified technician or professional
mechanic do the installation. Davis Instruments specifically disclaims any liability
for injury or loss resulting from the installation or use of DriveRight Products.
