    <paragraph num="(2)">
      <text>The device shall retain its tamper detection capabilities when disconnected from the vehicle's power supply, or record that it was disconnected. Devices that lose their memory of tamper events when disconnected from a power source shall have an indicator or interrupt device.</text>

    <paragraph num="(3)">
      <text>The device shall continuously record the time and date for each of the following vehicle and device operations:</text>
