Considerations for Using CarChip and DriveRight Together
• If both CarChip and DriveRight devices are installed in the same vehicle, 
you will need to create two entries for the driver and two entries for the 
vehicle in the DriveRight FMS database. Otherwise you will see duplicate 
trip data in your DriveRight FMS reports.
• If you are using both CarChip and DriveRight devices, make sure both 
types of devices use the same safety settings. 
• Speed Band 3 in the CarChip Settings dialog box should match Speed 
Limit in the DriveRight Settings dialog box.
• Hard Braking in the CarChip Settings dialog box should match Decel 
Limit in DriveRight Settings dialog box.
• Hard Acceleration in the CarChip Settings dialog box should match 
Accel Limit in the DriveRight Settings dialog box.
