RTITB Digital Tachograph Training for Drivers

  • Gain a clear understanding of both EU and UK legislation governing the operation of digital tachographs.
  • A detailed examination of the actual digital tachograph system, comprising the vehicle unit, sensor, speedometer and smart cards.
  • Looking at the different tachograph smart cards, how they differ, how they are issued and to whom.
  • Data security.
  • How the digital tachograph is used, including logging on and off, manual entries, data display, menu structures, adjusting time settings, etc.
  • Learning about pictograms and their various combinations.
  • Using printouts, interpreting the data and understanding the requirements for mixed analogue and digital operations.

Certification and Registration
