successful completion of the initial breath test, successful completion of any
running retest breath test, unsuccessful delivery of the initial breath test,
unsuccessful delivery of any running retest breath test, any refusal to take

within three (3) months of removal of the device unless they have received a
violations reset during that time period.
3. Provide near real-time data transmission
between the operator's device and the manufacturer's server while the device is
in use.
4. Make available for
viewing, when a violation occurs, all data, including photos or digital imaging
and global positioning system coordinates, if required, on the manufacturer's
website within ten (10) minutes from when the data was recorded on the device
or as soon as cellular transmission will permit. This includes any last event
data recorded after power off or as power is restored (e.g., skipped running
retest data).
5. Make available for
viewing, during normal operation without violations, all data, including photos
or digital imaging and global positioning system coordinates, if required, on
the manufacturer's website within twelve (12) hours from when the data was
recorded on the device or as soon as cellular transmission will permit. This
includes any last event data recorded after power off or as power is restored
(e.g., skipped running retest data).
