* Digital tachograph DTCO 2.1 active autonomously stores position data and enables easy interaction with fleet management programs like TIS Web
* Improved dynamic menu provides a better overview
* VDO Counter now extended by ferry/train function

VDO has added important functions to its Digital Tachograph 2.0. The new model, the DTCO 2.1, offered in the retrofit market with the affix “active”, in conjunction with a GPS module, now can continuously save position data and take idle times on ferries or during rail transport into account. “DTCO 2.1 active is the next rung on the evolutionary ladder and further improves the effectiveness and efficiency of fleet management with new functional modes,” explains Dr. Michael Ruf, head of the Commercial Vehicles & Aftermarket Business Unit at Continental, to which the VDO brand belongs.
