So does this get rid of the need of a distributor ? or does this work with it ? If it does get rid of it do i need a crank case sensor ? thanks Matt ...
The MSS need a distributor to, well, distribute to spark to the different cylinders. MSS only has one output that triggers the coil via an ignition module. To...

Does the softaware support a rev and/or boost cutoff for spark? Actually since both fuel and spark are controlled from one unit both spark and fuel could be...
You'll have to ask the MegaSpark EDIS guys. I'm not up to speed on how the MegaSpark EDIS works, and I really made this to get a dead simple configurable...
No, it doesn't, but it wouldn't be hard to add. But first let's get it to work as is. And adding more features will also mean we leave the original MS...
Let me see if I understand you correctly.... With MSS code, the fast idle output turns into an ignition output. That's a fire low output. A distributor is...
How am I going to determine what to set my cas at? I have the Nissan crank sensor which has 6 windows spaced at 120 degrees for cylinder position and 360...
... Looks to me like it's based on v 2.0, with a few bits from DT (burner routines and bootloader command), plus a tiny bit from 2.98x (the IRQ filter fix)....
So you have examined the code Eric? Yes you're right. Starting out from v2.0, I took the DT burner to free up some RAM for the Spark Table, and added the Tach...
Well, electronics isn't really my cup of tea, so I don't know if the 5 volts is enough to trigger the MS hardware, but I think there are others that can help...
Hi! 1. Yes, it should, as long you have a trigger signal the goes high before the maximum advance, and stays high until TDC where it goes low. Also make sure...
I'm using a GM HEI igniton who's pickup has 8 teeth (V8 Olsmobile... I've read the instructions and am not sure if it will trigger the Spark during cranking......
I would like know if anyone has tried this code using a bosch distributor(hall) equipped vw or audi. about to get my new vw 16v engine in the car and would...
I'm also really interested in doing this with a stock VW dizzy and the bosch ignition module <and an aftermarket coil of some sort>.. I'm just about ready to...
If you download the MSS you should see the status of the trigger on the second LED, was warmup with standard MS. If you the turn the engine slowly by hand and...
First you should download the new software, found in the Software ECU folder in the Files section. Then you have get the triggering working. You need the...
Hi Magnus, I've studied your code untill my head hurts, but I'm having difficulty understanding the principals and methods. I can understand that the time...
Hi Robert! Sorry to have caused you a headache... I will try to explain. People sensitive to headaches should probably stop reading HERE... In the main looper...
Hi Magnus, ... exactly. ... priority ... I'm not very familiar with the interrupt setup of this uC (from the motorola family I only worked with 6502, 68k and...
Hi again Magnus, Thanks, that's a big help, and I think I'm beginning to grasp the concept but the half cycle interval part is still a bit murky. I just need...
So now that MSS controls ignition and has crank position input, ignition input to MS on pin 24 is no more required? Do I understand it correctly? Thanks, ...
I have'nt tried the code yet but I'm going outside in a few to try it. Doing some looking last night into GM HEI modules, the 7-pin version has an "EST Bypass"...
Hi Robert! Well the "murky" half cycle interval is just what makes it impossible to delay the ignition until next cylinder. 10 degrees PLUS a full cycle is ...
Sorry, but you must have misunterstood something. The MSS needs a trigger to fire the ignition (and injection) and for that it uses the normal input pin 24....
