TruckX ELD One: Moving to Most Advanced ELD Technology!
For Owner-Operators and Fleet Managers alike, the journey of trucking operations is not just about getting a load from Point A to Point B – it’s about getting there safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with the latest regulations. That is where the newest TruckX ELD One technology comes into play. We have recently launched our new Electronic Logging Device (ELD) and it is more powerful, accurate, and easier to use than ever. Whether you are an owner-operator or run a larger fleet, TruckX is here to help you navigate the complexities of ELD compliance while keeping your business moving – now with advanced ELD hardware.
What is an ELD?
An Electronic Logging Device (ELD) is a piece of hardware that connects directly to a commercial vehicle’s On-Board Diagnostics Port (OBD) as well as digitally to a driver’s electronic logbook App to automatically record a driver’s hours of service (HOS). This includes driving time, vehicle movement, engine hours, and more to create accurate and tamper-proof records required for electronic driver logs compliance with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations.
ELDs are not just a regulatory requirement but a game changer for the trucking industry, allowing fleets to improve safety, reduce paperwork, and increase operational efficiency. ELDs help eliminate human error and ensure drivers follow the rules to reduce fatigue-related incidents on the road.
Understanding the ELD Mandate
The ELD Mandate applies to most of the commercial motor vehicle (CMV) carriers in the United States. Whether you are an owner-operator or a fleet manager of a large fleet, understanding who needs an E log is crucial to ensure regulatory compliance and smooth fleet operations.
The ELD mandate applies to drivers who are required to maintain records of duty status (RODS) under the Hours of Service (HOS) regulations. This includes drivers of vehicles that:
- Weigh more than 10,000 pounds
- Carry hazardous materials that require placarding
- Designed to carry 16 passengers or more (including the driver)
However, certain drivers are exempt from this requirement, such as those operating vehicles manufactured before the year 2000 or drivers who have to maintain RODS for only 8 days or fewer within a 30-day period.
How is TruckX ELD One better than ELD Pro?
TruckX ELD One has all the advantages of ELD Pro and more! Its advanced hardware is designed to make your fleet management experience even smoother, more accurate, and more efficient. Here’s how TruckX ELD One stands out:
• 4G SIM Card
TruckX ELD comes with a 4G SIM Card and Data Plan included. While TruckX ELD One and many popular E logs rely on a Bluetooth connection with the Driver’s mobile device, this can create unwanted dependencies on the driver’s tech stack. With TruckX ELD One, your electronic log is network-connected 24/7, independent of your driver’s Bluetooth and network connection status. Plus, not carrying the data load on their personal mobile plan can remove unnecessary complications.
• 24/7 Real-time GPS Tracking
TruckX ELD One provides you with 24/7 real-time GPS tracking. The TruckX platform will independently access and share data with the 4G SIM plan of the truck, regardless of the driver’s connection status. This becomes especially useful in cases of theft detection and rapid asset recovery. Dependable access to real-time location data allows you to see exactly where your vehicles are at any time, optimize routes, and improve overall operations.
• ELD & IFTA Data Accuracy
Whether GPS or Odometer data for your Logbook and IFTA Automation, ELD One provides uninterrupted, highly accurate data accuracy.

TruckX ELD One goes beyond electronic HOS logging by offering Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) fault detection. This feature tracks your vehicles for engine or system issues and will alert you in real-time if a fault code is detected. Early detection of potential problems can prevent costly breakdowns and keep your fleet running.

This feature is perfect for managing unauthorized use, monitoring delivery zones, or ensuring that vehicles stay on approved routes.
