Information about the device
Time is money! Time is money! Tacho-Timer will maximize your time and help you save up to 45 minutes a day of extra driving time. Use 29 or 58 seconds repeatedly for short drives, traffic congestion or rearranging your car. Tacho-Timer will enable you to extend your driving time effectively and will not expose you to interrupting the required rest (pause) in case you need to shift your car.
The new Tacho-Timer3 is a device that has 2 modes of operation:- In the first mode, the device divides the minute into 29 seconds and 31 seconds – during the first 29 seconds we can make a short ride by car without recording the drive. With this procedure, the tachograph will register rest instead of driving. If in particular minute the driving lasts from 1 to 29 seconds, followed by a break, the tachograph will register the break according to the rule of prevailing activity.
- In the second mode, time is counted continuously. The lit red LED indicates stopping time, the green one – moving time. The countdown continues continuously – in descending order – no matter if the device is turned on. When the value on the display comes to zero – the green LED lights up, indicating the start of the driving time. The driver has as much as 58 seconds to pass and must comply with the Tacho-Timer3.

How it works – legal information
On October 1, 2011, the law on new rules for driver activity with the digital tachograph came into force. The changes that have been made create an opportunity for transport companies to increase productivity and are particularly beneficial in cases where vehicles have multiple stops for loading or unloading. The so-called “1 minute rule” in digital tachographs, according to studies conducted in various European countries, indicate that a transport company can get an average of 45 minutes per day of additional driving time. TachoTimer makes it possible to navigate in traffic jams or to make so-called momentary climbs, short stopovers, keeping in mind, of course, the basic principle that in a given minute there must be more rest than driving. Thanks to the Tacho Timer device, we will always know when to stop the car without having to use a stopwatch, and a beep will signal the end of driving time.
For more information – the European Commission regulation – the 1 minute rule.
