Don't forget your company card
To download data from the vehicle, a company card must be inserted in the tachograph. You apply for it at the competent authority in your country.
Without an active company card, the tachograph will not allow you to download vehicle data. It acts as your electronic key to the vehicle.
Reading driver cards in the station does not need a company card – it is only needed for vehicle (tachograph) data.
Benefits for you
Fast, easy card reading without assistance.
The device is stored safely in a locked cabinet on the wall.
Take the key out at any time and download data in the vehicle.
Seamless work with the data in the TAGRA program.

How it works
Driver inserts the card
The driver inserts the driver card into the station. The card is read within moments – no company card and no office staff needed.
Key to the vehicle
For vehicle data, take the key out of the station and connect it to the tachograph. A company card must be inserted in the tachograph.
Data to TAGRA
Connect the key to your PC by USB and transfer the data. You then evaluate and archive it in the TAGRA program.
The data must also be evaluated
DOWNLOAD STATION gets the files off the tachograph and driver cards. The law also requires you to evaluate and archive them.
The TAGRA program for tachograph data analysis checks downloaded data, flags driver infringements and cites the relevant regulation and prepares the records you need for an inspection. Try it free for 30 days on tagra.app – no credit card needed.

Complete data analysis and archiving
Need downloads without visiting the vehicle?
DOWNLOAD BOX REMOTE downloads tachograph and driver card data automatically and remotely, straight into the TAGRA program – nobody has to walk round the vehicles. The unit is installed permanently in the vehicle by a qualified installer.
Installation is currently available in Slovakia and Hungary. We are looking for installation partners in other EU countries – if your company installs tachographs or vehicle electronics and would like to represent us in your country, write to obchod@tdt.cz.

Frequently asked questions
What do I need to download data with DOWNLOAD STATION?
To read driver cards, DOWNLOAD STATION on its own is enough. To download data from the vehicle, a company card must be inserted in the tachograph.
How often do I have to download data?
Legislation requires you to download driver card data at least every 28 days and tachograph data at least every 90 days. You must archive the data for at least 1 year. We recommend downloading a little more often, so you have a buffer if a driver is unavailable (illness, holiday).
What format is the downloaded data saved in?
Data is saved in .DDD format, or .C1B/.V1B depending on the tachograph make. To open and analyse it, you need analysis software, such as the TAGRA program, which is fully compatible with DOWNLOAD STATION.
Does the station support the new G2V2 smart tachographs?
Yes. The station is built around DOWNLOAD BOX II S, which supports Smart Tacho II (G2V2) and works with VDO and Stoneridge tachographs.
Can I also use it for vans from July 2026?
Yes. DOWNLOAD STATION is ready for the tachograph requirement for vans (light commercial vehicles) of 2.5–3.5 t used in international transport for hire or reward and in cabotage, which applies from 1 July 2026.
