Mallory Ignition ACCEL timing retard module 49355 - Manual (Page 4)

P RECAUTIONS AND W ARNINGS
The A CCEL Timing Retard Module will cause a small, fixed timing retard in the trigger.
This is due to computational delay. Engine ignition timing must be checked, and
re-adjusted, to account for this delay after your timing retard module is installed.
This flexible product makes it easy to select values that can damage your engine.
Start by selecting safe values. Carefully evaluate their effect. Make small changes,
when changing values, and use caution.
M ODES OF O PERATION
our new A CCEL T IMING R ETARD M ODULE has three different modes of operation.
1. Programming Programming and Control modes overlap in the sense
2. Control
that timing control is still performed in Programming Mode.
In Programming Mode the display shows the value you are
in the process of programming. In Control mode the LED’s display the
current timing retard from the trigger input.
3. Diagnostics Mode – See Pg. 12.
CAUTION : It may take a few seconds for the Timing Retard Module to SAVE values.
Be sure the display shows the current timing retard (default display) before turning
the module off. Powering off during a SAVE may cause you to lose stored values.
T HE SAVE B UTTON
Pressing the SAVE button tells the Timing Retard Module to store all the values that
have been adjusted. They will be remembered until they have been re-programmed
and over-written with the SAVE button. Turning off the module does not erase any
values that have been stored with the SAVE button.
You can adjust, and test, different settings, without storing values, by turning your
Module off, before pressing SAVE. The unit remembers the last values stored with
he SAVE button, and restores them the next time it is used.
After you have completed the wiring (according to diagrams detailed later in this
ocument) you must do some basic configuration of your A CCEL Timing Retard Module.
