Exempt Logs

Encompass® ELD helps 150 Air-Mile-Radius exempt drivers track their hours. It warns drivers and creates grid logs when thresholds are met.  Using the Exempt Log functionality must be enabled in the backoffice by the Encompass Administrator. 

When operating in an exempt driving status, the Driving Hours Available clock will be grayed out and display driving hours as N/A when the vehicle is in motion.
