Subsequently, the driving record operation of the present invention and the confirmation inquiry operation on the recorded driving record data based on the program set value set as described above will be described in detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 5.

First, when the starter 202 is started while the vehicle is installed in the driving recorder 200 in operation 50, the controller 28 controls the starter device through the connector 6 and the input interface 20. The driving distance based on the engine speed, time and date is received by the start on signal from the vehicle 202, and stored in the data storage 24, and the driving distance is based on the vehicle speed detection signal supplied from the vehicle speed detection device 204. The data of the number, time, and date related to the throwing vehicle speed, the speeding, and the rapid braking are prepared and stored in the data storage unit 24. In this state, when the start-off signal is supplied by the starter 202, the data of the time and date together with the number of off-offs of the engine is created and stored in the data storage unit 24.

In the above state, the process proceeds to step 51 and the control unit 28 determines whether or not the first confirmation mode for the confirmation display of the current time is set by a key operation by the mode setting key button 2A of the keypad 2. Determine whether or not.

As a result of the determination in step 51, when it is determined that the first confirmation mode is set as a result of the key operation on the mode setting key button 2A of the keypad 2, the control proceeds to step 52 to generate a timing clock. The current time is calculated by the timing clock generated from the unit 26, and the display driver 32 is driven accordingly, and the " 1 " indicating the first confirmation mode is displayed in the division mode display area 4B on the display unit 4. As shown in FIG. At the same time the number is displayed and the hour, minute and second numbers of the current time are displayed on the number display area 4C.

In that state, the control unit 28 determines that the decrease key button 2E of the keypad 2 is being operated for printing of the driving graph (YES in step 53), for example, several seconds, for example, 20 seconds. The driving speed, driving distance, speeding list, and braking list calculated in units are transmitted to the printer apparatus installed in the vehicle through the printer output port 12 as driving record data together with the driving date, driving time and vehicle registration number. The running graph is printed out on the predetermined recording sheet (step 54).

If it is determined in step 54 that the increment key button 2C of the keypad 2 is being operated (YES in step 55), the controller 28 outputs the print output of the driving graph. The transmission of the driving record data is stopped to end the printout (step 56).

On the other hand, when it is determined in step 51 that the mode setting key button 2A of the keypad 2 is not operated for the first confirmation mode, the control proceeds to step 57 to set the second confirmation mode. Determine whether key operation is performed.

As a result of the determination, when it is determined that the mode setting key button 2A of the keypad 2 is being operated for the setting of the second confirmation mode, the display driver 32 is driven based on the data of the preset date. In the division mode display area 4B of the display unit 4, the number " 2 " representing the second confirmation mode is displayed, and the current date is displayed on the numeric display area 4C in units of years, months and days. Display (step 58).

However, if it is determined that the key operation for the third confirmation mode is performed while the mode setting key button 2A of the keypad 2 is not operated for setting the second confirmation mode (NO in step 57) ( YES in step 59), the display driving unit 32 is driven based on the data according to the total mileage of the vehicle which is continuously added to the data storage unit 24 and stored to display the division mode display area 4B of the display unit 4. The number "3" indicating the third confirmation mode is displayed on the screen, and the number of total travel distances is displayed on the number display area 4C (step 60).

On the other hand, with the mode setting key button 2A of the keypad 2 not being keyed for mode setting in the third confirmation mode (NO in step 59), the key operation for setting the fourth confirmation mode is performed. If so (YES in step 61), the control proceeds to step 62 so that the traveling distance for each predetermined section in units of 0.1 km is displayed on the display unit 4. FIG.

In this state, when the left navigation key button 2B and the right navigation key button 2D of the keypad 2 are simultaneously operated in order to erase the traveling distance for each section (YES in step 63), the predetermined sections The mileage is eliminated.

On the other hand, if it is determined in the determination result of step 61 that the mode setting key button 2A of the keypad 2 is not operated for the setting of the fourth confirmation mode but is operated for the fifth confirmation mode (step YES at 65), a count value that counts the number of times of the overspeed state detected by the vehicle speed detection signal from the vehicle speed detection device 204 in accordance with a preset speed reference speed, that is, the number of speeds is displayed numerically on the display unit 4. In addition to being displayed in the area 4C, a number of " 5 " representing the fifth confirmation mode is displayed in the division mode display area 4B (step 66).

In this state, when the control unit 28 determines that the decrease key button 2E of the keypad 2 is being operated (YES in step 67), the overspeed state stored in the data storage unit 24 is maintained. In the driving record data for, for example, the driving speed data indicating the speeds of two recent speeding states, time, vehicle registration number, and total driving distance thereof are transmitted to the printer apparatus of the vehicle through the data input / output port 10. The speed list is printed out (step 68).

On the other hand, the mode setting key button 2A of the keypad 2 is not operated for the fifth confirmation mode (NO in step 65) but for key operation for execution of the sixth confirmation mode for confirming the number of rapid braking operations. (YES in step 69), the control proceeds to step 70 to determine the total number of rapid braking of the vehicle detected by the vehicle speed detection signal from the vehicle speed detection device 204 based on a preset sudden braking shift speed, for example, such as 255 times. The number of times " 6 " representing the sixth confirmation mode is simultaneously displayed on the numeric display area 4C of the display unit 4 up to the limit number of times.

In this state, when the increment key button 2C of the keypad 2 is key operated (YES in step 71), the control unit 28 stores the driving record data related to the sudden braking state stored in the data storage unit 24. While the driving record data indicating the sudden braking time and speed for the previous braking state is displayed in the numeric display area 4C of the display section 4 (step 72), the increment key button 2C is not keyed. (NO in step 71) If it is determined that the decrease key button 2E is being operated (YES in step 73), the data on the subsequent braking time and speed is stored from the driving record data stored in the data storage unit 24. The display unit 4 is displayed on the numeric display area 4C (step 74).

Next, if it is determined in step 75 that the left navigation key button 2B of the keypad 2 is key operated, the left shift key button 2B is operated before the sudden braking time at the time of the corresponding display in correspondence to the number of times of the key operation. While the speed trend can be displayed on the numeric display area 4C of the display unit 4 in units of 1 second (step 76), if it is determined that the right shift key button 2D is operated (YES in step 77). The speed trend after the indicated sudden braking time is displayed on the numeric display area 4C of the display unit 4 in units of 1 second.

At this time, when it is determined that the left navigation key button 2B and the right navigation key button 2D of the keypad 2 are being operated at the same time (YES in step 79), control proceeds to step 80 and the control unit 28 Causes the current date for the displayed sudden braking time to be displayed on the numeric display area 4C of the display section 4.

On the other hand, the control unit 28 determines that the mode setting key button 2A of the keypad 2 is not operated for the sixth confirmation mode (YES in step 69) but for the seventh confirmation mode. (YES in step 81), control proceeds to step 82 to detect the number of on / off times of the engine stored in the data storage unit 24 according to the start on / off signal from the starter 202.
