Hi, electronic instructions you can find inside the app. HOS-ROADSIDE-CREATE PIN-ELD IN CAB MATERIAL and then you can find the instructions there www.samsara.com/pdf/docs/dot-inspection-card.pdf
Hey @Tanguitos, we got our ELD expert to sit down and respond to your issues. Check out our July 2024 Community Response video for his reply. Feel free to watch the whole thing or just skip to 5:55
I drive a semi dump for an hourly wage. Our company is going to try the road and cab dash cam that records audio. I will not be installing this junk on my phone. We don't even worry about hours of sevice.
In that case you’d only need the app if you wanted to see your Safety score or review footage of a safety event. Recording audio is optional with these cameras. We have audio recording turned off in our trucks for driver privacy.
PC - i suggest explaining FMCSA rules a bit more. For instance, when it's legal to drive on Personal Conveyance with a trailer such as Ag Exemption. Also, the other driver in a Team is called a Co-Driver.
We are working on a few videos that explain HOS basics, PC and split sleeper. You are correct on the Co-Driver part, we may have made a mistake in the video.
thank you so much, for my capability this is the best instructive video, again for me and in my opinion.
Very nice. The pace is very good, deliberate but not too fast. Some people mean well, but go too fast because they assume too much.
Thanks for the kind words @creaturafauna
How do I keep the samara charging, I been losing a little power and I’m not seeing the battery go up
You most likely have a weak charger. Try turning off the screen while you are standing. That might help raise the battery percentage.
We are thinking about buying the Samsara device but I am wondering if we have to buy an Ipad/tablet separately as shown in this video?
You have to buy the tablet separately
Can we get a printed instruction sheet on how to transfer to dot officers

Can Samsara App work on Mac laptop ?
@zoranmarjanovic1262 We just checked this and found that yes, it can!
We have an issue with app . If you don’t removed your screen name it will keep you sign in
And if the t truck is moving it is going to on you
Open app¿ what app what is the name ... ? Do it again please, like u care
How long are you required for pre trip and post trip?
About 15 minutes. It’s hard to fully look over your truck and trailer any faster than that.
Job well done, I love it
Where do you see your total hours worked that shift?
5:14
From the main screen click HOS, then scroll down until you see the rows with dates and under Today you will see the hours worked.
For example I am in canada and I want to check my hours left in the USA how's that?thanks
