the files received by the digipostpro to somewhere other than
digiCentral (therefore it does not require registration). Pressing OK
on Type option (when displaying digiFFS) will then give you the option
of selecting a specific forwarding type. Toggle left/right to select
which option you want. By pressing OK on the option you require, you
will be required to fill in further credentials. For company specific
credentials that are unknown, please contact your reseller.

If your network does not support a dynamic IP and you need to enter
a static IP, refer to your network administrator for all of the
necessary entries. Refer to ‘How to type and set configuration
options’ on Page 9 for details on how to change characters in each
entry.

Transferring Driver Card Files
To transfer files from a driver card make sure that the
digipostpro is on the main screen (displaying the
present card icon). Simply insert the driver card with
the chip facing up. The file transfer will begin
automatically and a progress bar will indicate the transfer status.
Completion of the file transfer is indicated by a driver card with tick
icon or, if analysis is enabled, an option to run analysis. If sounds are
enabled, an alert will also sound after the completion of the transfer.
Driver Card Analysis
If analysis has been enabled press the OK button when
prompted with the analysis icon and the ’Run Analysis’
text. This will begin the generation of the analysis and
progress will be indicated.
To navigate the analysis report records, use the left/
right arrows to scroll through all available analysis records.
Pressing the down arrow will give a description of what that record is
displaying.
To aid the analysis of driver cards, please see the following tables
which explain the meaning of each icon. They are split into first,
second and third level icons which, when displayed together, drill

Connecting digivu to the Vehicle Tachograph Unit
Insert a valid Company Card into Slot 1 or Slot 2 of the Vehicle
Tachograph.
Please note: The new Smart Tachographs vary from the above and
therefore download sockets may be located in a slightly different
position.
digivu internal memory
digivu has 16MB of internal memory which on average will store 120+
VU data files. The indicator shows a green LED for sufficient
memory, an orange LED for 75% used memory and a red light
indicates that there is insufficient space for the current VU download.
The digivu will manage its own file storage by default so will
automatically overwrite archived files.
Insert the digivu into the
appropriate download socket of
your specific Tachograph unit as
indicated.
The digivu is powered by the
Tachograph.

digifobpro
To connect a digifobpro use the same cable that connects the
digifobpro to the Vehicle Unit (spare part code: DFP02-TC), placing
the cable in the front socket of the digipostpro.
Please note that if you are using an original digifobpro, the cable
used will have the same socket/plug at both ends - it does not matter
which end goes in the digipostpro.
The file transfer will start automatically and a progress bar indicates
the progress of each transfer. When the transfer is complete an
alert will sound (if enabled) and a digifobpro with tick icon will be
displayed. Simply disconnect your digifobpro from the device.
Archived Files
Once files from a digifobpro or digivu have been transferred to a
digipostpro, it will mark the transferred files on the digifobpro and
digivu as archived. If the download device is plugged in again, it will
not transfer archived files. Only new or unarchived files will be
transferred.
If required, files can be manually archived or unarchived on the
download device. With the digivu this can be done via the
digipostpro using the digivu configuration menu when the digivu is
inserted(see page 21). With the digifobpro this can be done on the
device itself or by using digiConnect on a PC.
