ELD APP workflow
ELD functionality start to send data periodically via BT right after external BT device has been connected if OBD Feature (parameter ID 40000) is set to ELD (option 2). ELD data sending is paused if Configurator is connected. ELD data is resumed after configurator disconnects. ELD data sending resumes automatically when external BT device reconnects after connection loss.
