In the case of Stoneridge tachographs, this works from release 7.0, i.e. vehicles built from 09/2010 onwards. You can easily find out the version of the tachograph by looking at the control sticker on the tachograph. This is located behind the cover in which the pressure roller is located. Alternatively, you can use the menu in the tachograph to make a technical printout, where you will also find the version status. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
