Method and electrical system for recording and processing time-related date
First Claim
1. A method of electronically recording time-related data, in particular data relating to the operation and driving of vehicles having a plurality of data sensors, using a system comprising data collecting means, data recording means and means for generating reference code signals representative of time data, comprising the steps of:
- collecting data from the sensors using the data collecting means;
generating reference code signals using the generating means;
associating to collected data to be processed reference code signals generated time-related to said data, andstoring the collected data to be processed and the associated reference code signals in the data recording means, wherein said generating step comprises;
generating completely autonomously said reference code signals based on a relative time unit, said reference code signals being not adjustable by means external to the system.

Abstract
Method and system for recording and processing time-related data, in particular data relating to the operation and driving of vehicles. The time-related data to be processed are recorded autonomously with the aid of data collecting means and data recording means to be connected detachably thereto, with the addition of time-related reference codes, the reference codes being generated completely autonomously on the basis of a relative time unit.

- 9. A system for electronically recording and processing time-related data, in particular data relating to the operation and driving of vehicles having a plurality of data sensors, comprising data collecting means, and data processing means, and data recording means detachably connectable to both the data collecting means and the data processing means, and means for generating reference code signals representative of time data including counter means and oscillator means, coupled to the counter means, for autonomously driving the counter means, wherein the counter means are provided with at least one counter unit the count number of which and the oscillator means being not adjustable by means external to the system, the collected data to be processed and the reference code signals generated time-related to said collected data are autonomously, associatively recorded in the data recording means.
