ABSTRACT:
A system for storing beginning and ending odometer readings of a plurality of individual trips made by a vehicle. The odometer readings for each trip are stored individually for future retrieval and use. The system can be directly connected to an odometer device included on the vehicle, or odometer information can be manually input by the vehicle operator. The date and other data such as the vehicle and operator identify, trip purpose, and customer identification codes, are stored for each trip. A data I/O port is provided to allow direct transfer of data from the system to a central computer where the data can be used by appropriate computer programs. The distance traveled during each trip can be calculated by a central computer, or the system can be programmed to calculate the trip distance. The apparatus is accommodated in a compact housing which slides into a cradle mounted inside the vehicle for convenient relocation from one vehicle to another or to a computer for data transfer. The apparatus is powered by the vehicle power source. The present invention provides an accurate and convenient system for logging the information associated with each trip made by a vehicle so that accurate records can be easily kept on the use of a vehicle.
