Transferring Data to an Inspector Using Bluetooth Wireless Technology

The inspector's device must support the Bluetooth® Personal Area Networking (PAN) profile and must be able to connect to FMCSA Web Services to complete transfers using Bluetooth wireless technology. Ensure that Bluetooth wireless technology and a Wi-Fi hotspot are enabled on the inspector's mobile device.

The Garmin eLog™ device uses the inspector's mobile device as a network access point to send inspection information to FMCSA web services.

  1. From the Garmin eLog app, select Inspection.
  2. Select an option:
    • For a device with Android™, select Share > Yes.

    • For an Apple® device, select Send Report > Yes.

  3. If necessary, enter an annotation.
  4. Select Bluetooth.
  5. Select Enable Pairing Mode.
  6. Follow the on-screen instructions in the app to pair the Garmin eLog adapter with the inspector's mobile device.

The inspection report transfers automatically after the pairing process is complete.
