Since June 15^th 2019, second generation recording equipment is being installed in vehicles registered in the Union for the first time, and second generation tachograph cards are being issued. In order to smoothly implement the second generation tachograph system, second generation tachograph cards have been designed to be also used in first generation vehicle units built in accordance with Annex IB to Regulation (EEC) No 3821/85. Reciprocally, first generation tachograph cards may be used in second generation vehicle units. Nevertheless, second generation vehicle units can only be calibrated using second generation workshop cards. The requirements regarding the interoperability between the first and the second generation tachograph systems are specified in this Annex. In this respect, Appendix 15 contains additional details on the management of the co-existence of both generations. In addition, due to the implementation of new functions such as the use of Galileo Open Signal Navigation Messages Authentication, detection of border crossings, entry of load and unload operations, and also to the need to increase the driver card capacity to 56 days of driver activities, this Regulation introduces the technical requirements for the second version of the second generation recording equipment and tachograph cards.’;

• (58) Upon driver (or workshop) card withdrawal, the recording equipment shall display the current place of the vehicle on the basis of the GNSS information, and of stored digital map in accordance with point 3.12.19, and shall request the cardholder to confirm or to manually rectify the place.
• (59) The place entered in accordance with requirement 58 shall be considered as the place where the daily work period ends. It shall be recorded in the relevant driver (or workshop) card as a temporary record, and may therefore be later overwritten. Under the following conditions temporary entry made at last card withdrawal is validated (i.e. shall not be overwritten anymore):
• — entry of a place where the current daily work period begins during manual entry according to requirement (61);
• — the next entry of a place where the current daily work period begins if the card holder does not enter any place where the work period begins or ended during the manual entry according to requirement (61). Under the following conditions temporary entry made at last card withdrawal is overwritten and the new value is validated:
• — the next entry of a place where the current daily work period ends if the card holder does not enter any place where the work period begins or ended during the manual input according to requirement (61).’;
• (ii) the following subparagraph is added in paragraph (60): ‘The recording equipment shall display the current place of the vehicle on the basis of the GNSS information, and of stored digital map(s) in accordance with point 3.12.19 and shall request the driver to confirm or to manually rectify the place.’;
• (b) in point 3.6.2, paragraph (61) is replaced by the following:
• ‘(61) Upon driver (or workshop) card insertion, and only at this time, the recording equipment shall allow manual entries of activities. Manual entries of activities shall be performed using local time and date values of the time zone (UTC offset) currently set for the vehicle unit. At driver or workshop card insertion the cardholder shall be reminded of:
• — the date and time of his last card withdrawal;
• — optionally: the local time offset currently set for the vehicle unit. At the first insertion of a given driver card or workshop card currently unknown to the vehicle unit, the cardholder shall be invited to express his consent for tachograph related personal data output through the ITS interface. For checking if a card has already been inserted, the recording equipment shall use the tachograph card data stored in its data memory, as set out in requirement 133. At any moment, the driver (resp. workshop) consent can be enabled or disabled through commands in the menu, provided the driver (resp. workshop) card is inserted. It shall be possible to input activities with the following restrictions:
• — Activity type shall be WORK, AVAILABILITY or BREAK/REST;
• — Start and end times for each activity shall be within the period of the last card withdrawal – current insertion only;
• — Activities shall not be allowed to overlap mutually in time. It shall be possible to make manual entries, if required, at the first insertion of a previously unused driver (or workshop) card. The procedure for manual entries of activities shall include as many consecutive steps as necessary to set a type, a start time and an end time for each activity. For any part of the time period between last card withdrawal and current card insertion, the cardholder shall have the option not to declare any activity. During the manual entries associated with card insertion and if applicable, the card holder shall have the opportunity to input:
• — a place where a previous daily work period ended, associated to the relevant time (thus overwriting and validating the entry made at the last card withdrawal),
• — a place where the current daily work period begins, associated to the relevant time (thus validating a temporary entry made at last card withdrawal). For the place where the current daily work period begins entered at the current card insertion, the recording equipment shall display the current place of the vehicle on the basis of the GNSS information, and of stored digital map(s) in accordance with point 3.12.19, and shall request the driver to confirm or to manually rectify the place. If the card holder does not enter any place where the work period begins or ended, during the manual entries associated with card insertion, this shall be considered as a declaration that his work period has not changed since the last card withdrawal. The next entry of a place where a previous daily work period ends shall then overwrite the temporary entry made at the last card withdrawal. If a place is entered, it shall be recorded in the relevant tachograph card. Manual entries shall be interrupted if:
• — the card is withdrawn or,
• — the vehicle is moving and the card is in the driver slot. Additional interruptions are allowed, e.g. a timeout after a certain period of user inactivity. If manual entries are interrupted, the recording equipment shall validate any complete place and activity entries (having either unambiguous place and time, or activity type, begin time and end time) already made. If a second driver or workshop card is inserted while manual entries of activities are in progress for a previously inserted card, the manual entries for this previous card shall be allowed to be completed before manual entries start for the second card. The cardholder shall have the option to insert manual entries according to the following minimum procedure:
• — Enter activities manually, in chronological order, for the period last card withdrawal – current insertion.
• — Begin time of the first activity shall be set to card withdrawal time. For each subsequent entry, the start time shall be preset to immediately follow the end time of the previous entry. Activity type and end time shall be selected for each activity. The procedure shall end when the end time of a manually entered activity equals the card insertion time. The recording equipment shall allow drivers and workshops to alternately upload manual entries that need to be entered during the procedure through the ITS interface specified in Appendix 13 and, optionally, through other interfaces. The recording equipment shall allow the card holder to modify any activity manually entered, until validation by selection of a specific command. Thereafter, any such modification shall be forbidden.’;
• (c) in point 3.6.3, paragraph (62) is replaced by the following:
• ‘(62) The recording equipment shall allow the driver to enter, in real time, the following two specific conditions:
• — ‘OUT OF SCOPE’ (begin, end),
• — ‘FERRY / TRAIN CROSSING’ (begin, end). A ‘FERRY / TRAIN CROSSING’ shall not occur if an ‘OUT OF SCOPE’ condition is opened. If an ‘OUT OF SCOPE’ condition is opened, the recording equipment shall not allow users to enter a ‘FERRY / TRAIN CROSSING’ begin flag. An opened ‘OUT OF SCOPE’ condition must be automatically closed, by the recording equipment, if a driver card is inserted or withdrawn. An opened ‘OUT OF SCOPE’ condition shall inhibit the following events and warnings:
• — Driving without an appropriate card,
• — Warnings associated with continuous driving time. The driver shall enter the FERRY / TRAIN CROSSING begin flag immediately after selecting BREAK/REST on the ferry or train. An opened FERRY / TRAIN CROSSING must be ended by the recording equipment when any of the following options occurs:
• — the driver manually ends the FERRY/TRAIN CROSSING, which shall occur upon arrival to destination of the ferry/train, before driving off the ferry/train,
• — an ‘OUT OF SCOPE’ condition is opened,
• — the driver ejects his card,
• — driver activity is computed as DRIVING during a calendar minute in accordance with point 3.4. If more than one specific conditions entry of the same type is done within one calendar minute, only the last one shall be kept recorded.’;

• ‘3.6.4 Entry of load/unload operation
• (62a) The recording equipment shall allow the driver to enter and confirm, in real time, information indicating that the vehicle is being loaded, unloaded or that simultaneous load/unload operation is being performed. If more than one load/unload operation entry of the same type is done within one calendar minute, only the last one shall be kept recorded.
• (62b) Load, unload or simultaneous load/unload operations shall be recorded as separate events.
• (62c) The load/unload information shall be entered before the vehicle leaves the place where the load/unload operation is carried out.’;

• ‘(84) This event shall be triggered, as specified in Appendix 12, while not in calibration mode, in case motion information calculated from the motion sensor is contradicted by motion information calculated from the internal GNSS receiver or from the external GNSS facility or by other independent source(s) in accordance with requirement 26. This event shall not be triggered during a ferry/train crossing.’;
• (c) in point 3.9.15, paragraph (86) is replaced by the following:
• ‘(86) This event shall be triggered, while not in calibration mode, when the VU detects a discrepancy between the time of the vehicle unit’s time measurement function and the time originating from the authenticated positions transmitted by the GNSS receiver or the external GNSS facility. A ‘time discrepancy’ is detected if the time difference exceeds ±3 seconds corresponding to the time accuracy set out in requirement 41a, the latter increased by the maximal time drift per day. This event shall be recorded together with the internal clock value of the recording equipment. The VU shall perform the check for triggering the ‘time conflict’ event right before the VU automatically re-adjusts the VU internal clock, in accordance with requirement 211.’;
• (d) in point 3.9.17, the eighth indent is replaced by the following:
• ‘- ITS interface fault.’;
• (e) the following point is added:
