Introduction 

The Digidown device downloads data from digital tachograph vehicle units 
(VUs) from all current tachograph manufacturers. Data downloaded from 
the VU is stored on an SD memory card and can be uploaded via Bluetooth 
to wherever it is required.   

Three types of download are available:

activity data plus a selection from events & faults, detailed 
speed and technical information and can include a 
download of a driver card inserted in the VU.

Insert a compatible SD card in the device. A suitable ready-formatted 

SD card is supplied with the unit.   

 

In order to read tachograph cards direct into the unit and use any of 

the Bluetooth functions a pair of AA-size batteries is required. These 
are also supplied with the unit.  Please observe the correct polarity 
when inserting the batteries.

Please note that for any download to work including download of a Driver 
Card in the VU (see note below) the VU needs to be authenticated. That is 
achieved:

the card. Push it back into the Digidown Blue. This will release the SD card and it
