The digiDL-B / BT stores the files it downloads from the Vehicle Unit within its
internal memory. In digiConnect these are classified in either the ’Driver Card’
or ‘Vehicle Unit’ folders. As the unit nears its memory capacity it overwrites the
oldest files. Whilst this storage provides some level of backup it is simply
designed to deal with situations where the unit is offline for whatever reason.
It also allows the unit to independently download and store files whether the
vehicle is connected to the network or not, provided it has received an
authentication in the last 24 hours.
During installation testing or on retrieval of a unit from a vehicle you can view
the current files on the digiDL-B or BT (see
Fig 11.
). These files can be
downloaded to your PC using the “Download” button in the File Management
options. You can also Delete files from the device should you be installing in
another vehicle for instance.

Authentication of the Company Card
Authentication
The introduction of Remote Download makes it possible for the Tachograph to
communicate remotely with a Company Card, in this case by using digiDL-B or
BT as a gateway. digiDL-B will try and authenticate every 18 hours and the
status of authentication is shown in the digiConnect Current Status window .
Please note that the Company Card being used remotely, or one in the same
series, must have been inserted into the Vehicle Unit at some time, if not then
the Vehicle Unit cannot use this Company Card.
The role of digiCentral
digiCentral is a Tachosys product which runs on Windows servers to provide a
communications platform for our devices. The majority of online Tachograph
analysis providers have a digiCentral server in operation. digiDL-B / BT needs
to communicate with a designated digiCentral server in order to open a
dialogue with the appropriate Company Card, to pass data and to receive
schedules and tasks.
There are a number of hardware options for hosting Company Cards as listed
below.
digicard (DC03)
A simple and cost effective solution. However it
requires a permanent connection to a Windows PC.
Supported by our free software ‘digicentral
Authenticate’.

digicard-AUT
(DCA01)

only requires power and a WiFi connection. Designed
for use by companies wishing to host their own
company card.
