As a transporter, you can choose to read your tachograph and driver card manually or automatically. Automatic reading saves a lot of time and prevents high fines for missing data during an inspection.
Nowadays, most companies choose reading equipment that automatically reads the digital tachograph and driver card. With automatic reading, the tacho data is directly imported into the software. Prevent missing data and stop wasting valuable time. Let us inform you about the possibilities.
Looking for reading equipment to read your driver card and tachograph with a low investment? Then manual reading is the solution for you. With our reading equipment, you can easily meet your reading obligations. Prevent tachograph fines and order your manual reading solution today!
Every transporter that is tachograph obligated must read their drivers' cards every 28 days. Failing to do this risks missing data, and hefty fines are issued for this. Additionally, the digital tachograph itself must be read every 90 days. We advise our customers (who manually read) to read the drivers' cards once every 2 weeks and the tachograph itself once a month. This is easy with our reading solutions, so you can avoid the risk of fines for missing data!
With our reading solutions, transporters are able to download the ddd. files from the digital tachograph. This way, they can transfer the data upon request during inspections by the IL&T.
Did you know that in 2020, the Dutch Inspectorate of the Environment and Transport (IL&T) expanded its number of inspectors by 150? With the extra capacity, the number of inspections has risen dramatically. With our wireless reading equipment, you can face these inspections with peace of mind.
Connecting the hardware can be done quickly and easily by yourself using the provided instructions. With our automated solution, you will never again risk receiving a fine for missing data!
We configure your hardware and will ship it as soon as it is properly set up for your vehicles.
You will connect the hardware yourself using our special cables. After that, you send your business card to us.
You are all set! From now on, all data will be automatically read and transmitted wirelessly.
Our tachograph software seamlessly integrates with the reading equipment we provide. With automatic reading, the .ddd files are easily loaded into the software. Prefer to manually read the tachograph? It's also possible to manually load this data into the software in a super simple way!
Roadsoft's tachograph software is innovative and groundbreaking. Traditional tachograph software performs analyses and then stops there, leaving you to investigate where the bottlenecks are. Our software goes a step further by examining violations and providing clear tasks to resolve these issues and prevent tachograph fines!

The driver card must be read every 28 days. However, we recommend our customers do this every 2 weeks to prevent missing data.
The digital tachograph must be read every 90 days. We advise our customers to read the tachograph once a month to avoid missing data.
The digital tachograph records the driving and resting times of the driver. This data is stored on the driver card and in the tachograph itself. The tachograph also monitors working hours and other activities that arise during operations.
Analog tachographs cannot be read by our hardware. Therefore, the driver must keep their own records using the tachograph card.
Let's clarify that both methods are suitable for collecting tachograph data. However, we recommend our customers choose to automatically read the digital tachograph. This method eliminates the risk of missing data, significantly reducing the chance of tachograph fines!
Unfortunately, this is not the case. Digital tachographs manufactured in 2012 or earlier are not suitable for automatic reading. If you have an older tachograph produced before 2012, it can only be read manually.
Both VDO and Stoneridge tachographs are supported by our reading solutions.
