SMART 2 DTCO 4.1 Soon Becomes an Inevitable Solution

FAQ – Frequently asked questions about SMART tachographs 4.1

What are the differences between DTCO 4.0 and the new DTCO 4.1?

The main difference between the current tachograph DTCO 4.0 and the new DTCO 4.1, which will be installed in vehicles from August 21, 2023, is reflected in the redesigned hardware and software components. Although similar in design, the DTCO 4.1 has an additional Bluetooth icon for direct access via the VDO Fleet app, without the need for additional equipment. The new version automatically records border crossings, supports specific rules for international transport, including the ability to take two reduced weekly holidays in a row. There is also an “Ex variant” intended for vehicles with dangerous goods, marked with the “Ex symbol” for identification in accordance with the ADR agreement. These changes make DTCO 4.1 modern and compliant with the requirements of the EU Mobility Package.

What changes do the new SMART tachographs bring about when crossing the border?

Previously, drivers had to enter the country at the start and end of the journey and at each border crossing. The new DTCO 4.1 will automatically detect and memorize border crossings. The digital map is stored in the device, and signals from satellite positioning are used to detect the crossing of the state border. This is how smart tachographs of the new generation relieve drivers of part of the task – with DTCO 4.1, they manually enter the country only at the beginning and end of daily working hours, and even then this device suggests a country for manual entry based on the current location of the vehicle, enabling faster entry.

What are the differences between analog, digital, and second generation smart tachographs?

Analog tachographs, installed in vehicles registered before April 30, 2006, use sheets (so-called speedometer plates) to record data. Digital tachographs of the first generation (G1), mandatory since 1/5/2006, have gone through three versions until 14/6/2019, following technical changes and improvements, such as improved movement readings. The second generation of digital tachographs (G2), introduced on June 15, 2019, includes intelligent devices that use the ITS interface, are connected to the satellite navigation system and provide data for remote inquiries. DTCO 4.1, the second version of the smart tachograph from 21.8.2023, brings further improvements, including automatic border crossing recognition. These devices set new standards in accuracy and functionality, making them essential for modern fleet monitoring.
