Abstract: Disclosed is electronic control unit data recorder readable code which is configured for storage in memory of an electronic control unit data recorder, such as a vehicle data recorder. The code is configured to provide that the electronic control unit data recorder has access to a plurality of configurations, receives data from at least one electronic control unit and uses at least a portion of the data to determine which configuration to use during data collection and processing. The configuration which the electronic control unit data recorder uses dictates what additional data is received from at least one electronic control unit by the electronic control unit data recorder, as well as what data regarding the electronic control unit is stored and/or transmitted by the electronic control unit data recorder.

Abstract: Disclosed is electronic control unit data recorder readable code which is configured for storage in memory of an electronic control unit data recorder, such as a vehicle data recorder. The code is configured to provide that the electronic control unit data recorder acquires data in a plurality of different modes.

Abstract: Disclosed is an automated data acquisition and issue management system which includes a server, and code which is readable by an electronic control unit data recorder. The electronic control unit data recorder is configured to receive data from at least one electronic control unit. The code is configured to provide that the electronic control unit data recorder receives data from at least one electronic control unit, collects, processes, and transmits the data to the server. The code is also preferably configured to provide that the electronic control unit data recorder identifies at least one issue with regard at least one electronic control unit and communicates data regarding said issue to the server.
