Evidence of tampering/circumvention shall be reported by the manufacturer or his representative to the department and to the appropriate court within 48 hours of detection. All data downloaded from the device evidencing the driver's violation of state law, the department's regulations, or the appropriate court's orders shall be reported by the manufacturer to the appropriate court and to the department within 14 days of discovery.

B. Monitoring shall also include physical re-calibration of the device and downloading of all events contained in the device's memory. These events shall be printed in a summary fashion and maintained in the applicable probationary driver's file.

C. The manufacturer may allow the devices to lock out the probationary driver and may terminate monitoring in the event of the driver's failure to pay monitoring fees.
