A heavy vehicle fleet usually needs two kinds of hardware: a GPS tracker for the vehicle and a device for the driver's work diary.
Logmaster doesn't make trackers, but it does supply the in-cab side: tablets, truck mounts, mobile device management and an eSIM for its NHVR approved EWD.
Many fleets fit trackers, then leave drivers to run the work diary on whatever phone they have. Batteries die, apps get deleted and personal phones mix with work. The diary is only as reliable as the device it runs on.
Dedicated in-cab devices fix that.
Logmaster: The In‑Cab Half of the Setup
Logmaster supplies tablets and truck mounts for the app, along with Logmaster Mobile Device Management and the Logmaster eSIM. Drivers can still use their own Android or Apple phones if you prefer.
Your GPS trackers come from your telematics provider. Where the platform is supported, such as Geotab or Microlise, Connected Fleets links it to Logmaster so tracker data is checked against diary entries.
Together, the tracker covers the vehicle and the Logmaster device covers the driver's record.
Logmaster can supply tablets set up for the app, so drivers have a dedicated device for their work diary.
Truck Mounts Included
Mounts keep the tablet secure and in reach in the cab.
Devices Managed Centrally
Logmaster Mobile Device Management helps the business keep in-cab devices set up and under control.
An eSIM Option
The Logmaster eSIM is available for in-cab devices, and the app still records offline whenever coverage drops.
Tracker Data Linked In
With a supported tracking platform connected, odometer readings are pre-filled and mismatches between the tracker and the diary raise alerts.
Personal Phones Still an Option
Drivers can use their own Android 7 or later, or iOS 12.5.5 or later, device if you'd rather not supply hardware.
Who Benefits From Dedicated Devices
Heavy Vehicle Drivers
Drivers keep work and personal phones separate, with a mounted tablet that's always there for diary entries and pre-start checks.
Fleet Managers and Record Keepers
Record keepers spend less time on drivers whose phone died or whose app was deleted, because the device is managed by the business.
Transport Business Owners
Owners get reliable hardware for the work diary, alongside the trackers they already run, from suppliers who each handle their own part.
Hardware Backed by an Approved EWD
Logmaster's NHVR approved EWD is used by more than 10,000 drivers and 1,200 businesses, across the HVNL states and territories and in WA with WA plans.
It's ISO 27001 certified, and customers include PFD Food Services and Cleanaway.

No. GPS trackers come from your telematics provider. Logmaster supplies the in-cab devices for its work diary: tablets, truck mounts, mobile device management and an eSIM.
No. Drivers can use their own phone or tablet running Android 7 or later or iOS 12.5.5 or later. Dedicated tablets suit businesses that want work devices kept separate and managed.
It's Logmaster's service for managing the devices drivers use for the app. Ask the Logmaster team for details of what it includes for your fleet.
Yes. Logmaster records work and rest offline and syncs when the device reconnects. Ask the Logmaster team about the Logmaster eSIM for connecting in-cab devices.
On a supported telematics platform, Connected Fleets links the two. Tracker data pre-fills the odometer, the driver is assigned to the vehicle on login, and the office is alerted when the diary and the tracker disagree.
