FWIW......

When I was running EDIS I started with non resistor plugs and wires. That experience was not good!

I switched to resistors on both and essentially eliminate those problems. I would suggest the same for any EDIS installations!

Just my experience though..............

what was ...

is there any way to use megasquirt to control an externally regulated alternator like the oem's do?



thank you,

those settinig do affect pip. with the settings i had, the pip was being ignored in regards to timing out put. it was still getting rpm input though.

I'm confused here. :?

PIP is generated in the EDIS module. It is then sent from EDIS to MS, to drive the MS tach input. How can you be "still ...

an msq is the actual tune file with all your settings that gets save to your computer.

i am no help with data logs. sorry

they were generated by mega tune. we changed the mask time to .1 ms and 10 %. megasquirt imediately started outputing a saw signal.

we got it figured out.
after a few emails with matt cramer, we determined that the mask number and percentage were off. i set them to his recomendations and i now have a saw signal and full ignition control.

thank you for the trouble shooting assistance!

i have since fixed all of those values. i had some glitches that was inputting those goofy numbers. i have attached the current msq with the coil charge scheme set to standard. that produced an ac voltage on the saw wire. all other settings the same with the edis charge shceme settings produce no ...

i switched the coil charging scheme from edis to standard charging and i get ac voltage at the saw wire. still nothing when edis is selected.

i am pulling my hair out with this thing.

do i have the correct settings in my msq. file.

i am also not reading any voltage ac or dc on the saw wire while running.

i have also removed the saw wire from the twisted set with the pip. it is not shielded but it is routed as to not pick up or lose signal through induction.

i have continuity between js10 and pin 3 of the edis.

yes i jumpered js10 1nd ign. i have not checked continuity between js10 and edis pin 3 yet.

you say a screened cable for the saw. do you mean shielded?

the pip and saw wires are twisted together in the harness for about 3 feet. could the signal be getting muddied up by the pip?
the original edis ...

here is the msq. there may be some fuel settings out of whack because i am not running fuel right now, just ign.


also what would be a good way to verify the presence of a saw signal?



i am not an electrician or computer guy. i know just enough to get myself in trouble.
this is my second mega ...

i am trying to use a ms2 as a standalone ignition controller for an edis8 setup.

the ms2 is seeing the pip, i assume because the tach is functioning on the mega tune display. (btw i am using megatune right now because my tuning laptop wont connect to the internet to download TS.)

the only timing ...
