Garmin ELOG, Owner'S Manual

From the Garmin eLog app, select the icon   next to the user who should be listed as the active driver.

Changing Duty Status

For the most accurate records, you must change your duty status in the Garmin eLog app every time you change 
your driving status, such as when you start driving, take a break, switch drivers, or change the type of driving you 
are doing. The Garmin eLog adapter automatically switches to driving status when the vehicle's diagnostic port 
reports a speed greater than or equal to five miles per hour. The vehicle is stopped when the diagnostic port 
reports a speed of zero miles per hour.
NOTE: The vehicle must be stopped to change duty status. You cannot manually change duty status while you 
are driving.
