WARNING
This system is capable of controlling either “intelligent” ignitors which have in-built
dwell control (commonly found on early EFI engines with electronic ignition) or “dumb”
ignitors which contain no such control (modern ECU controlled ignition systems). This
allows standard ignitors to be used in many cases. Most standard ignitors are dumb
igniters.
It is very important to set the system up to match the type of ignitor used!.
In the ignition set-up page the set-up should be:
To control intelligent ignitors set up as “Constant Duty”
To control dumb ignitors set up as “Constant Charge”
If the wrong set-up damage to the ignition system will occur.
Burning out ignitors due to wrong set-up will not be regarded as Warranty!
Please ensure all power supplies are disconnected before commencing any wiring.
Failure to follow all the warnings and precautions in this manual can lead to damage to
engine components and may possibly void your warranty. Incorrect setup of the ECU can
also lead to damaged engine components.
Damaged components due to incorrect setup will not be regarded as warranty repairs.
