Introduction
The Digidown device downloads data from digital tachograph vehicle units (VUs) from
all current tachograph manufacturers. Data downloaded from the Tachograph is
stored in a Secure Digital memory card, normally known as an SD card.
Three types of download are available:
ALL VU
Downloads all contents from the VU
LATEST VU
Programmable
1
. Options include the last 1, 2 or 3 months of data
plus a selection from events & faults, detailed speed and technical
information.
CARD
Downloads a Driver Card inserted into the VU
If required, ‘Latest VU’ can also be programmed to include download of a Driver card
inserted in the VU.
Pressing the relevant button starts the Download. Download status is indicated by
the 3 LEDs positioned by the buttons.
Initial Set Up
In order to operate successfully, the Digidown requires an SD card to be inserted into
the slot in the end of the device. A suitable ready-formatted SD card is supplied with
the unit. When a suitable memory card has been inserted into a Digidown and the
Digidown is connected to a VU it checks the card format and then indicates that it is
ready for use.
Insertion and removal of the SD card
When in use a suitable SD card must be inserted into the slot in the bottom of the
Digidown. To insert the card, push it into the slot in the end of the Digidown until it
latches in place. To remove the SD card from the Digidown (for instance in order to
read it using a different memory card reader) the protruding end of the memory card
should be pushed back into the Digidown. This will release the SD card and it will
spring out for easy removal. DO NOT try to remove the latched memory card by
pulling on the end of the card.
