Navigating FMCSA ELD mandates can be complex, but Garmin eLog offers a straightforward solution. This one-time purchase electronic logging device (ELD) ensures Hours of Service (HOS) recording compliance without the burden of recurring subscription fees. Simply buy it, install it, and drive with confidence.
Broad Compatibility for Semi-Trucks
The Garmin eLog is designed for easy installation and broad compatibility. Supporting both 9-pin J1939 and 6-pin J1708 diagnostic ports, this standalone device is ready to integrate with virtually any semi-truck right out of the box. Just plug in the Garmin eLog, download the free Garmin eLog™ app, and you’re set to comply with ELD regulations.
It’s important to note that Garmin eLog is not compatible with vehicles using the OBD2 protocol (SAE J1979). For Volvo Trucks with a Volvo engine utilizing a 16-pin J1962 configuration, a 16-pin to 9-pin adapter cable (sold separately) will be required.
Seamless Integration with Your dēzl™ Truck Navigator
For added convenience, Garmin eLog works seamlessly with many Garmin dēzl GPS truck navigators (sold separately), including models like the dēzl 580, dēzl 780, and dēzlCam 785. This integration allows you to conveniently view duty status and HOS information directly on your dēzl navigator’s display. Please note that some dēzl navigators may require a smartphone or tablet¹ to display remaining hours.

With Garmin eLog, you can drive assured that your HOS recording adheres to FMCSA ELD mandates. The device automatically and accurately records driving time, grants easy access to driver duty status, and provides a quick view of remaining driving hours for the day or week. Stay compliant and focused on the road ahead.
