I've been using the paperless logs for quite some time now. There very complicated at first trying to remember all the macros and what they are for, but once you got them down there pretty easy.
Paperless logs have advantages and disadvantages. The biggest advantage is that DOT doesn't like to mess with the paperless logs. When I got pulled in for a LV. 1 inspection near Ashland, OR the DOT guy asked for my logs and I told him I was paperless. After a few minutes of silence, he just moved on to the inspection. After he was done, he asked to see my logs again
, and again I told him I was paperless. He then asks me to bring my weekly log up and I told him I couldn't. "Why's that?", he asked and I told him if anything is over the truck, I can't get a signal thru. Holding an umbrella over the Qualcomm dome will block the signal and being in the bay was the same thing....lol Well, he moved on, I passed, and was on my way.
The down side is you can't slip a few hours off here and there like you can on paper logs. So instead of waiting 10 hours for rest, you wait 9 1/2 and take off. Paperless won't let you do that. It sends a big alarm to you on the Qualcomm telling you that you are in violation of DOT and to pull over. Also, no more of that driving past your 11 hour or 14 hour window, cause again, you get the alarm.
It's a blessing and a curse.
