Recording device and recording method

Abstract

To allow a time-series change among signal values to be recorded easily for a process of recording the respective time-series values of input signals, a recording device includes: a determination reference value obtaining section configured to obtain a determination reference value on a basis of signal values during a reference time period, the reference time period being a predetermined time period after a start of input of time-series signal values, the determination reference value indicating a feature of the signal values during the reference time period, and a recording control section configured to (i) obtain information on a recording start condition on a basis of the determination reference value, the recording start condition indicating whether, as compared to the signal values during the reference time period, there has been a large change among signal values after the reference time period has elapsed, and (ii) start recording signal values in response to the recording start condition becoming satisfied.
