  1. 0:03hello folks uh in this video I'm going
  2. 0:05to show you uh how to use our video
  3. 0:09simulator now this is designed and
  4. 0:12developed by video Continental who are
  5. 0:14one of the UK's uh number one or the
  6. 0:18largest uh tachograph
  7. 0:20manufacturers um now this simulator is
  8. 0:23designed to sort of allow um trainers to
  9. 0:26be able to train drivers on how to use
  10. 0:30tackle graph using real time
  11. 0:32scenarios um and without having to get
  12. 0:36into a lorry or mess about with real
  13. 0:38live data so uh the the simulator itself
  14. 0:43is costing around £75 plus V8 uh per
  15. 0:47anom and uh it can be purchased from our
  16. 0:50website which is
  17. 0:51www. compliance solutions. co.uk and if
  18. 0:57you go into our shop you'll be able to
  19. 0:58purchase it from there direct or you can
  20. 1:01just contact us and we can arrange for
  21. 1:03the product to be uh sent to VI email so
  22. 1:07um the layout is pretty simple once
  23. 1:10you've logged in you see a bunch of
  24. 1:13different tabs over here so you've got
  25. 1:14various different models of tachograph
  26. 1:16So currently it's uh by default it's on
  27. 1:20the latest uh dtco 4.0e which is the
  28. 1:24latest Gen 2 teor graph um you still
  29. 1:27have the older Gen 2 as well and then
  30. 1:29you've got the one before that and then
  31. 1:31you've got dtco 2.2 with a slightly
  32. 1:33different layout of buttons and um um
  33. 1:37and pretty much functionality is pretty
  34. 1:38much very similar slight difference in
  35. 1:40the menus Etc and then you've got the
  36. 1:43one which is between 2012 and 2015 and
  37. 1:47then the older one as well so the oldest
  38. 1:49we've got here is dtcl
  39. 1:521.4 now that being said I'm just going
  40. 1:54to show you very quickly how the
  41. 1:56simulator Works uh so click on start and
  42. 1:59then you've got uh the welcome screen uh
  43. 2:03now you can start the engine obviously
  44. 2:05and then it basically highlights
  45. 2:07everything so you've got a bunch of
  46. 2:09cards over here you've got driver card
  47. 2:11which is a gen one Gen 2 company card
  48. 2:14and a control card um so you can pretty
  49. 2:16much do everything that you would uh
  50. 2:20normally do on a real tachograph so in
  51. 2:23this example I'm just going to quickly
  52. 2:24put the card in slot one and then it's
  53. 2:28going to show you exactly the same
  54. 2:29screen you would see on a real
  55. 2:31tachograph uh it's loaded the card it
  56. 2:33tells me what time the the last
  57. 2:36withdrawal was and then I can make a
  58. 2:38manual entry as a normal tachograph
  59. 2:40would ask you to do so uh obviously you
  60. 2:43can play around with different things
  61. 2:44over here you can change the modes um so
  62. 2:47I'm just going to leave it onr press
  63. 2:49okay okay okay and that's it so that's
  64. 2:53it that's the entry
  65. 2:55confirmed um you can choose this yes or
  66. 2:58no this is the remote date that you can
  67. 3:00publish if you want it um entry stored
  68. 3:04and um that's it we are pretty much
  69. 3:07ready to
  70. 3:08drive um so there you go so basically
  71. 3:11you can sort of put the taco in drive
  72. 3:14mode on other work paa everything you
  73. 3:17you you would do on a real tachograph um
  74. 3:20so let's just try and uh put in some
  75. 3:23other work at the start of the shift so
  76. 3:26I would simply click on the Activity one
  77. 3:28button until you got the crossers and
  78. 3:31then I can say he's been on other work
  79. 3:34for let's
  80. 3:37say say 15 minutes press okay and then
  81. 3:41that's recorded uh 15 minutes of other
  82. 3:44work now I can drive around say let's
  83. 3:47say you know put it on drive mode as you
  84. 3:50can see and then uh I can increase the
  85. 3:53time let's say 1 hour off drive so
  86. 3:55increase the time by 1 hour press okay
  87. 3:58and then um can stop the
  88. 4:02driving and it should switch back
  89. 4:05automatically to other work once I come
  90. 4:08to a stop um and then you know you can
  91. 4:11put various different entries so we can
  92. 4:13put a break entry if you want um so
  93. 4:17there you go rest and then another hour
  94. 4:19of rest right and then we can probably
  95. 4:22put some other work or POA whichever we
  96. 4:26prefer and then put that for another one
  97. 4:29hour and that's that's the end of our
  98. 4:31shift let's say quick and easy shift um
  99. 4:35yeah and then obviously you can eject
  100. 4:38the card press and hold the uh activity
  101. 4:41mode one and that's it allows you to
  102. 4:44make another entry so this is just a
  103. 4:47quick demonstration so I can give you a
  104. 4:49feel for the actual tachograph itself um
  105. 4:52obviously there are options to do print
  106. 4:54outs as well you can do print outs here
  107. 4:56press okay yeah and that's the actual
  108. 4:59print out so it gives you very realistic
  109. 5:02uh information the shift that we've just
  110. 5:04completed as you can see um it's good to
  111. 5:07sort of you know get the drivers
  112. 5:08familiar with everything um you know so
  113. 5:12yeah so that's pretty much our um
  114. 5:15simulator like I said you can purchase
  115. 5:17it on our website or you can give us a
