Diad Holder Thing

[sudhop]

Any other centers have this?

We have it here in Charlottesville it works very well, you must keep it in the holder a lot because it will kill the batteries in about 6 hours to save it self it will go into safe mode turn off navigation and the battery will last another hour we had them installed last November and I went through peak with no failures. It is really helpful when running a nda stop off of another driver

Does it stick out in the work area? I will snap off the plastic with my hip. Getting out of the back. Looks like the old slot is still there still. Does it pivot to different angles?

I hope they do. It's a in cab distraction. We are not to look at the DIAD while the truck is running. So how is this map going to help us.

You know it’s only so that they can give you area you have no knowledge of and throw cover drivers out blind....

Trying to dumb our job down as much as possible. Ups will come after pay cuts eventually. This is the start. Now you take the hardest part of our job and make it so easy my ten year old could do it. I played around with one Saturday and I do not like it. Very distracting.

Yea we just need to keep it like it always been by just doing the route and overtime it will click and you will just know it through trial and errors

Has anyone been able to charge their phone with the USB. I can't get my iPhone to charge.

I disagree. UPS doesn't care about us or a cover driver going out blind.

It's for the time they need to replace us because of a strike.

So was the backup monitor when we first got them.

It makes an excellent drink holder

In our center they are removing the old daid holders when they install these. I end up just tossing the daid on the dash now since it takes a bit longer to pull it from the charger.

In my center they are forcing us to dock it all the time. This generates another metric they're after.

Gotta love the great directions! "Go north on 1st street, then go north on 1st street"

Just tried it and it's useless. While it will charge your phone, it's only when the truck is running and it's a low voltage USB. It also sends an error message to the DIAD about an unrecognized USB drive and screws up the screen.

Sucks, was hoping to not have to keep a portable battery charger with me. I stream radio all day which is why I need charging.

It sends an error message when I use it to charge my iPhone but it still charges it. And it charges my bluetooth speaker without an error message. It kept my speaker going all day.

Electrolytes?

Electrolytes?

No, these Green New Deal trucks are hydro-powered.

In my center they left some of the Diad holders in and others taken out. It probably depends on if room was needed to install the cradle.

Yikes, got another call today to go feeder...if I didn’t have my newborn I’d be all over it. This is the kind of junk that will mess me and my downtown route up all day!

Thanks for the heads up. I plugged my speaker in and no error message. Must just be computerized devices that asks to be identified.
