ACCESSING AND INTERPRETING HEAVY VEHICLE EVENT DATA RECORDERS ”Excellent course for anyone
dealing with data extraction and support of Heavy Vehicle EDR’s!”
Recent advances in commercial vehicle equipment have increased the potential for incident-related data to be recorded surrounding a collision event. What some have called a “black box” is more properly referred to as a Heavy Vehicle Event Data Recorder (HVEDR) as defined by the SAE J2728 HVEDR Recommended Practice. The term HVEDR is used to describe any type of electronic function that has the capability of storing data surrounding a defined event within an electronic control module found on a heavy truck or bus and that communicates on the SAE J1939 or J1587/J1708 data communications protocol. This course highlights the various vehicle systems and triggering events that may provide data useful in a collision investigation. Guided by recognized industry experts, techniques for preservation and interpretation of HVEDR data will be explored. This highly interactive workshop includes in-class instruction, demonstrations and practical hands-on experiences for acquiring and analyzing data from commercial vehicles. LEARNING OBJECTIVES By completing this workshop, you will be able to: • Identify the potential sources of HVEDR data available on commercial vehicles • Utilize various methodologies for accessing and imaging data from HVEDRs while preserving the data in its original electronic format within the control module • Compile documentation of the vehicle and the imaged HVEDR data to properly establish foundational facts that tie the data to the vehicle and to ensure the reliability of incident specific data • Properly interpret data from HVEDRs and understand the limitations of this data • Analyze HVEDR data in the context of collision reconstruction WHO SHOULD ATTEND This course is a must for anyone involved in the investigation and analysis of commercial vehicle crashes who needs to understand the types of event data that are available on commercial vehicles, how it is generated, how it is accessed from the vehicle, and how to apply it in a collision reconstruction.
