ABSTRACT:
An automotive data recording device for collecting data from a vehicle and for storing the data for further analysis includes a first electrical interface adapted to interface with a vehicle data terminal capable of supplying raw data internally monitored by a vehicle computer having a memory for storing the raw data. A volatile memory temporarily stores substantially all the raw data stored in the vehicle computer's memory, and a non-volatile memory stores a desired portion of the raw data. The device also includes a microprocessor programmed to provide a first control signal to retrieve the desired portion of the raw data from the volatile memory for storage in the non-volatile memory and to provide a second control signal to retrieve the desired portion of the raw data from the non-volatile memory.
