SmartCard Desktop Reader
The Desktop Reader is connected to a
computer via a free USB port. The
Desktop Reader works in conjunc-
tion with the FMS software to down-
load DriveRight data via the
SmartCard and to configure all the
SmartCards or DriveRight devices in
the fleet.
Starter Interrupter Kit
The Starter Interrupter Kit is an
optional device installed with the
On-Board Reader that allows
only authenticated users with
validated SmartCards to use and
operate their assigned vehicles.
The kit contains a 12-volt starter
interrupter relay that gets con-
nected to the car’s starter circuit.
If a SmartCard with the assigned Driver ID to the vehicle is inserted into the
On-Board Reader, the vehicle is allowed to start. If an unauthenticated driver
or driver without a SmartCard tries to use the vehicle, the vehicle will not start.
