Method and device for the plotting of scanned information, in particular operating data for a motor vehicle
First Claim
1. A method for recording a curve of information scanned using a specifiable scanning period, comprising:
- subjecting the scanned information to a data reduction to produce reduced data;
storing the reduced data;
viewing the curve, in a context of the data reduction, in a time raster of a multiple of the scanning period;
within individual raster increments, determining at least one characteristic variable of the curve; and
selecting the raster increments so as to vary as a function of at least one further characteristic variable of the curve within one raster increment.

Abstract
A method and a device for recording the curve of information. The information is scanned using a specifiable scanning period. The information is specifically the operating data of a motor vehicle. The scanned information is subjected to a data reduction, and then the reduced information is stored. To record the curve of relevant digital information, in particular, of the operating data of a motor vehicle, so as to use the least possible storage space, it is proposed that, in the context of the data reduction, the curve of the scanned information be viewed in a time raster of a multiple of the scanning period, and, within the individual raster increments, at least one characteristic variable of the curve of the scanned information be determined. The device is advantageously a component part of a control device for controlling/regulating specific motor-vehicle components or of an operating- or accident-data recorder of a motor vehicle.
