This document presents draft amendments to UN Regulation No. 169 for the EDR Step 2 workstream. It defines non-volatile memory as permanent EDR data storage retained after power loss, and volatile memory as temporary buffering that does not retain data. Requirements specify that EDRs capture and record data to non-volatile memory when triggered, with capacity for at least five events. Trigger conditions include sudden deceleration exceeding 3.25 m/s² for 0.7 seconds and vehicle stops at 0 km/h for 20 seconds. An amendment allows certain stop events to be recorded in volatile memory first, transferring to non-volatile memory when other triggers occur or the master switch deactivates, reducing memory wear in vehicles with frequent stops.
