ELD Firmware and Application Updates

 

This article explains the importance of keeping Encompass® ELD firmware and application versions up to date to ensure optimal functionality. It provides step-by-step instructions for locating firmware and application version information both within the Encompass® system and directly on the Encompass® ELD mobile app for iPhone/iPad and Android devices. The guide details how to access relevant menus, including the System Menu and Diagnostics, and where to find version numbers in the Connected Device List or Mobile Device List. Following these procedures helps Drivers and Administrators verify their systems are current, supporting compliance and reliable operation.

 

Firmware updates are vital as they include important updates to the system hardware to improve functionality. Firmware updates automatically in the background when a driver logs into the mobile application, connects to the ELD, and gets to the app home screen. Please ensure your ELD application is up-to-date and on the current version.
