Why is the DLD® Wide Range the
right download solution for me?
The DLD® Wide Range is a powerfully efficient VDO solution for vehicles on
the road – because it makes short work of the legal downloading of mass
memory and driver card data – anywhere and anytime, via GPRS (mobile
wireless network).
The files are downloaded from the DTCO® to VDO’s remote server via GPRS – so mass memory and driver card
data can be downloaded 24/7, Europe-wide. The download process is controlled from the office PC, meaning
that the company card can stay in the office – at no time does it have to be inserted in the DTCO®.
Advantages of data transfer via GPRS
• You save on administrative costs
– no staff are needed, because data
download is carried out automati-
cally at pre-defined intervals.
• You avoid hefty fines too – because
the DLD® Wide Range makes sure
that you adhere to legal archiving
deadlines.*
• Downloading from driver cards and
mass memory takes place without
the need for a company card in the
vehicle. The company card stays
in the office
– authentication takes
place via GPRS.
• Encrypted data transfer via GPRS
offers the highest level of security
for drivers who usually have to send
their data media by post, because
they don’t return to their fleet of-
fices at regular intervals.
• The DLD® Wide Range saves you
data downloading time
– the
files are downloaded straight from
the DTCO® to the remote server.
From there they are automatically
forwarded to TIS-Web®, or they can
be manually downloaded from the
office computer.
• DLD® download files are compa-
tible with TIS-Web®, TIS-Office®
and third party archiving solutions.
• Your fleet manager has complete
control of the whole centralised
process.
DLD® Wide Range
* Provided that the legally specified download
intervals are input into the system.

Downloading data with the
DLD
®
Wide Range
The user-friendly Remote TCO Manager (RTM) configuration software manages the DLD® Wide Range data
downloading process. The software uses a task list with pre-defined intervals, specifying when downloading
is to take place. You can also use the RTM to create further download tasks.
The task list is sent to the remote server once a day. The remote server transmits the relevant tasks each time
a connection is established with the DLD® Wide Range.

Data transfer
4 The DLD® Wide Range transmits
the encrypted data to the remote
server via GPRS.

Data for TIS-Web® customers
is transmitted directly to the
TIS-Web® server via a secure
Internet connection (https) – so it’s
immediately available for evaluation.
For Office applications like e. g.
TIS-Office®, the data is transferred
from the remote server to the office
computer via a secure Internet
connection (https).
This is how DLD® Wide Range data transfer works:
Authentication
1 The DLD® establishes a connection
between the DTCO® and the RTM on
the office PC
2 Authentication takes place between
the company card and the DTCO®.
Data download
3 Secure data download from the
DTCO® to the DLD® (driver cards
and/or mass memory data), where
the data is collected and encrypted.
