Connect your ELD (electronic logging device) or telematics provider and Tread tracks your trucks in real time. Live positions show on the Live Map and let Tread detect when a truck enters or leaves a geofence (a virtual fence around a Site).

​
Supported providers

Tread connects to more than 300 ELD and telematics providers, including: Don’t see yours here? Search for it in the provider list when you connect. If it’s not there either, contact support@tread.io.

​
Connect your provider

You need a login for your ELD provider’s account. Some providers ask for an API key instead.

​
Match vehicles to Equipment

After the fleet connects, click View vehicles and match each vehicle to an Equipment record. Tread records each matched vehicle’s live position against that Equipment.

​
Troubleshooting

The most common cause is expired credentials at your ELD provider. For example, the user account you signed in with was archived or its password changed. Reconnect with an active account. If trucks still don’t show, contact support@tread.io.
Check the vehicle’s match under View vehicles and pick the right Equipment record.
