Nexiq Blue-Link ELD 16-Pin OBDII Bluetooth Device

The Nexiq Blue-Link ELD is designed to work with the various ELD software manufacturers. This version is designed for vehicles with an OBDII connection.

Features

• 1939 Protocol
• OBD CAN (ISO15765) Protocol
• Calculated Engine Hours If No ECM Support

General Support

• Seamless Background OTA Firmware Updates
• Secure Communications and Firmware Updates
• Limited access to BLE bondable mode via physical pushbutton on device with built-in timeout.
• All communications between mobile client and device employ standard BLE encryption.
• Authentication required between mobile client and device to enable datalink communications, and to enable OTA device firmware update.
• Encrypted firmware update file.
• Running firmware locked and encrypted to prevent data extraction.
• Automatic Vehicle Link Detection for ELD Data of Interest (Engine Controller)
• CAN auto-baud detection
• Calculated Odometer Support If No ECM Support
• Fully-Documented Driver/Device API for Developing Mobile Apps To Communicate with the ELD

Bluetooth Support During Active Connection

• Device Notification of Powered-On Date and Time
• Log Record Parameter Support with Selectable Raw Data or Pre-Scaled Format, with the following information
• GPS position and UTC time data
• Vehicle Identification Number (VIN)
• Engine serial number
• Odometer
• Engine hours
• Vehicle speed
• Log Records Notifications Automatically Occur at 15-Minute Intervals
• Updated Log Record Can Also Be Requested Immediately by Mobile Client
• Automatic Notification Of Each Vehicle Motion State Change
• Key Off
• Key On (Engine Off)
• Key On (Engine Running)
• Automatic Notification of Each Vehicle Motion State Change
• In-motion event = vehicle exceeds 5mph after being considered motionless
• Motionless = vehicle motionless for more than 3 seconds after being considered in-motion
• Automatic Data Capture Timeout Notifications
• Device checks for more than 5 seconds without one or more required core parameters being received from expected source (ECM or calculated), and sends notification to client application on each occurrence.
• The following parameters subject to DCT check:
• Odometer
• Engine hours
• Engine speed
• Vehicle speed
• Configurable Distance Traveled Notifications
• Device sends periodic odometer notifications to mobile client for specified distance traveled. Default trigger is 5 miles, configurable via API call.
• Configurable Hard Driving Detection and Notifications:
• User-configurable mph/s threshold for device detecting hard acceleration/deceleration events and sending notifications back to mobile client

Bluetooth Support During Vehicle Activity with no Application Connection

• Log Record on-device archiving, with flag indication of reason for each capture.
• On subsequent mobile application connection, archived log records can then be retrieved via the following defined API commands:
• 15-minute periodic capture when engine running
• Ignition-on (engine running) / Ignition-off events
• Driving / Not Driving Events
• Driving = 5mph or greater detected
• Not Driving = motionless for more than 5 minutes after "Driving" event detected
• Initial Data Capture Timeout event, i.e., first time any of 4 core parameters not received within 5-second timeout is detected.
• Data Capture Recovery event, i.e., all four core parameters received within 5-second window after initial Data Capture Timeout event has been previously captured.
