Great job on this video, I really enjoyed all the extra tips you have added in. So many drivers can get stuck on things like Available Drive Time thinking that is always using their 11 Drive Time.
Thanks, Jessie! It is confusing for many drivers, so I'm glad this can help!
I appreciate the time you took to make this vid.
Thanks! I hope it was helpful for you!
I'm new to PeopleNet, this was a good informative video thank you.
I'm so glad it helped you!
THANK GOD FOR YOUR VIDEO AND THAT YOU EXPLAINED IT THAT WE COULD UNDERSTAND TOO SOMETIMES PEOPLE GO SO FAST THANK YOU THIS VIDEO IT WAS REALLY HELPFUL GOD BLESS YOU 🙌🏼 🙏🏾 ❤️
You're very welcome! Glad it was helpful!
I'm trying to figure out how to do split sleeper on PeopleNet. Any idea? Thanks!
Ben, I just saw this comment! So sorry! PeopleNet will automatically calculate the split for you under the new 2020 rule changes.
How do you enter your brake check info.
Where to go yard move?onduty like fueling ?
Sorry I can't be more help on this Azim. We recently switched to a different system for our ELDs. I hope you find your answers!
Isn’t their a option for taking your break in the fuel island like some drivers do
Yes. If you take on-duty for 30 minutes it will count as your 30 minute break according to the newest rules of the FMCSA. If your device isn't doing this, call customer service.
What's red triangle
IT SHOULD ALSO be noted.. that if you have the tablet running off WIFI to connect to the Black Box... You NEED TO MAKE SURE the Wifi is connect to your trucks own Black Box... At JB Hunt they have had it set to auto connect to their black Box but also have it set to connect to the Terminals WIFI signal as when the truck is shut off for 1-2 hours... the WIfi on the Black Box turns off and that's which the red alerts pop up say that "This device is not functioning as a ELD". Making sure the tablet is only Set to connect to just 1 Wifi connection (the Black Box) will create less issues... easier way to fix this for drivers that are not tech savy is to just have them reboot the Tablet.
Sorry that we didn't reply earlier. You're right! There can be issues if the device is always scanning for wifi!
i am a new driver and in my ELD it shows unidentified driver id, can you tell me why it shows like this ?
Sukhwinder, I'm so sorry we didn't get back to you sooner! I'm sure you've resolved the issue by now, but I'll answer it anyway so that others can benefit later!
An unidentified driving alert will show up on the corner of the options menu when your truck is used while no one is logged into the PeopleNet device. For our drivers, this most often happens when a mechanic moves the truck in our yard without logging in.
If you notice an unidentified driving event, click "unidentified driver" in the Options menu and look for the orange/yellow entry on your log. Click that entry and either accept or reject the entry. If you accept it, it adds it to your log as YOURS. If you reject it, your system administrator will have to assign it to someone else (whoever drove it).
Hope this helps anyone else with a similar question!
So i am EMT i move to truck stop on PC miles thinking i had only about an HR to wait for my 10hr break then it kicks me to on duty and driving with zero miles and engine off ....what do i do know?
My best guess (without looking at your logs) is that you went into PC and then started your truck to leave for the truck stop. Unfortunately we learned the hard way that turning the ignition on or off interrupts both PC and YM and will kick you into D when you start moving. I'm not sure if this describes your situation or not. If your truck truly kicked you into on duty and D while the engine was off you might need to call PeopleNet (but they are closed today and tomorrow). You could try turning the device off and on again, or doing a reinstall. Those are my suggestions! Hope you find answers!
Quick update! They are working on a fix for this and it is in beta testing now!
Do you know how to change the 16 hour to the 14 hour clock?
I believe this has to be changed at the management level.
Is there a driver facing camera built in or is a separate item?
There are cameras built-in to the PeopleNet units themselves, but you have to pay to turn them on. We don't use them for our company.
@@drivekandj where are the cameras located on the unit?
@@befree8251 if you have a PeopleNet unit from PeopleNet (not an Android tablet) you can see a small driver facing camera on the top middle. We don't have many actual PeopleNet units left in our trucks as we have mostly switched to Android units because of cost. We don't turn on the driver facing cameras and never will so I'm not that familiar with how that setup would work, sorry!
@@drivekandj the ones we use must not be equipped... I don't see one. My fellow drivers were all paranoid. I am the only girl... I don't know anyone who wants to just sit and watch a bunch of guys who talk about fishing, cars or listen to rush limbaugh!!! Lol
@@befree8251 ha! We are a women-owned company, we get it! Lol!
Yard move still counts from hours of service, from what I had been told
You're right. It does still count from total hours of service, but it doesn't take away from your 11 hour drive clock. So it does still "save your hours" if that makes sense. Thanks for the comment!
@@drivekandj yes it does, I have a warning for being off duty while waiting 4 hr to get loaded. They say those hr count
Yard move must be in a fenced yard per DOT reg.
Where are you reading that, Glad?
@@drivekandj From 2019
FMCSA is proposing to broaden the yard move guidance to clarify that a driver can use yard move status “only if the movement of the CMV occurs in a confined area on private property (or intermodal facility or briefly on public roads, as described below).
Examples of properties that may qualify as yards include, but are not limited to:
An intermodal yard or port facility.
A motor carrier's place of business.
A shipper's privately owned parking lot.
A public road, but only if and while public access to the road is restricted through traffic control measures such as lights, gates, flaggers or other means. For example, if a driver must operate on a public road briefly to reach different parts of a private property, the movement may be considered a yard move if public access is restricted during the move
Thanks for posting and opening the conversation. The FMCSA did open up a comment period earlier this year on clarifying the usage of yard move, but they have not yet published any updated guidance on this in the Regulatory Guidance section of their website. For now, it is up to the company to define what is a "yard" and what is not. Thanks again for commenting!
Is there a way to sign up for a login. My company has given me a driver ID but not a password.
Your company will have to sign you up for a password.
Anyone know how to add drive time. If you didn't sign off drive time
Sorry for the late response! I don't think we have a video that illustrates how to add a duty status, but that would be how you would do it. I would contact your safety director/tech person, or PeopleNet directly for instructions. Thanks!
What a mess up system I like the video
Thank you!
I am new ..using peoplenet.. can you pls upload video how to use in team..??
So sorry I didn't see this earlier! At 2:59 you will see a little button on the bottom that says "+ Driver" click that and you can add another driver. That is how you do team. And then you can easily switch back and forth between drivers.
Esuite is very bad and updating GPS location on the fly.... The intergration is not GREAT at all with the PeopleNet software as they are 2 separate software linked to each other... So PeopleNet might easily link up to the truck.. but the Esuite side might take longer to fully link to the truck and get a good GPS location... In most cases... once everything is up.. these things will easily fully link up with everything once you crank the truck up.
We do not disagree. Honestly, this is a big flaw we've seen with PeopleNet. You're definitely right.
@@drivekandj A lot of times when it comes to this stuff... It all depends on how you have it set up... and how much trust you have in your drivers... I troubleshoot this stuff all the time with my fellow drivers that have issues with PeopleNet when I still worked on JB Hunt....
The other thing is that ANY Log modifications.. you have to manually request logs whenever a log advisor edits your logs... THIS ALSO is an issue when drivers decide to certify their logs at the end of the day... If you certify your logs at the end of the day and THEN log out... The unit will request logs and ask you to certify again because there has not been enough time for the Software to communicate with the Database in saying the logs have been certify so the unit is pulling CURRENT logs from the Database in which says logs on that day have not been certified.... TO SOLVE this issue so drivers are not certifying there logs multiple times... I would certify yours logs at the beginning of the day when you first log into the unit.. NOT at the end of the day.
Lmao i found that thing in my closet and im tryna learn how to use it
Ha! Seriously? Best of luck!
I'm a dunce I still don't get it!
You aren't a dunce at all! Watch it a few more times and play around with the device in your truck. It takes hands on practice for a lot of our drivers to have it all click into place.
@@drivekandj Thanks
ISAAC is way better
Interesting! We always love hearing about other people's experiences. Glad you found something you like!
People net sucks js
As they say anytime it has wires or tires... or something like that!
Yeah I agree! People net sucks! Platform Science much easier/faster for the driver, but companies don't care if we use all our punching buttons just to get going!
By the way you can't use yard move for fueling, DOT will catch that
