Manual download of tachograph files: 6 reasons why it’s still a good solution.

Manual tacho download:
avoid fines, hassle, and comply with legal requirements

There is a lot of talk about ARTD – Automatic Remote Tacho Download. A very good solution for many. However, a good old solution like manual download can still be a viable option for securing your data. Examples could include companies with a few vehicles, newly established businesses, seasonal businesses such as agriculture and tourism, the need for a flexible solution, special driving patterns, or companies with infrequent tachograph obligations.

Flexibility and Cost-effectiveness

Manual download gives you full control over when and how you retrieve data from the tachograph.

This level of autonomy is especially useful when it’s necessary to have the data available immediately or at precise times.
With manual download, you can customize data collection to your specific needs and work patterns, making it a highly flexible solution.
Manual download offers both affordability and a high degree of flexibility. This solution does not involve significant investments in expensive equipment, and when combined with cloud-based services, it can be an extremely cost-effective solution suitable for many different types of businesses.

Simple Implementation and Easy Handling

A manual download solution means simple implementation.
Manual download doesn’t require complex installations or expensive system upgrades. It can be as simple as using a download key or another device that can be connected to the tachograph.

Once data is manually downloaded, it can be easily archived on physical media or in a straightforward file structure on a computer, providing a simple and direct way to store and access historical data. Additionally, a cloud backup solution can easily be integrated to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements for professional data backup.

Compliance and Proven Technology

Manual download of driving and rest time data is an effective method that ensures companies comply with the applicable legal requirements.

This approach allows companies to carefully plan when they collect data.
These data are crucial not only for regulatory inspections but also for a company’s internal audits and analysis.

Ensuring regular data collection ensures that legal requirements are met.
Furthermore, a manual download solution relies on tried and tested technology, ensuring robust and secure data handling.

This reduces the risk of technological errors or data corruption that may otherwise occur. This traditional approach ensures that the data remain intact and unaffected by the frequent updates and changes that may sometimes characterize modern IT systems.

Moreover, the manual process adds an extra layer of security as it requires physical interaction, reducing the risk of external intrusions or hacking.
