The Adjustments button in the Main Menu of the added MIC ignition controller opens the following views:
The and
buttons allow you to switch between the views.
The views are described as follows.
Risk of destruction! Incorrect settings for energy, firing angles and the reset position can lead to damage to the engine and the ignition system. Therefore make sure that engine and ignition kit are designed for the corresponding settings. |
Risk of destruction! Changes to the settings for energy, firing angles, voltage and reset position take effect immediately and without further confirmation. Therefore always comply with the operating manuals of the engine and all components of the ignition kit. |
Self Test
Operational safety! If you carry out a self test, it is essential for the gas supply to be switched off and no more residual gas is left in the combustion chamber. Non-compliance can result in damage to equipment or injury to persons. |
You can run a self test to check the order of the wiring and the connection between the MIC ignition controller outputs down to the spark plugs.
The status display indicates whether the ignition controller is ready for the self test.
Carry out the self test as follows:
Timing Adjustment
Via the corresponding buttons, the global ignition timing can be corrected in 0.1° or 0.5° increments to advance or retard.
Operating Hours
Set the operating hours of the spark plugs or the engine to the desired value using the arrow keys. You can reset the value of the operating hours for the spark plugs and the motor to 0 with the Reset buttons.
Energy Adjustments
In this view, you have the following options:
Voltage Calibration
In this view, you can set a unitless correction value for the secondary voltage estimation for each output.
Changes are made to selected outputs. You have the following options for selecting outputs:
For the selected outputs, set the correction value using the arrow keys:
Reset Position
Using the arrow keys, correct the index/reset position (Reset) in steps of 0.1 °crankshaft or 0.5 °crankshaft to advance or retard. If the correction range is not sufficient, the reset/index position must be adjusted in the configuration in the MICT.
Cylinder Individual Offset
In this view, you can adjust the ignition timing position for each cylinder individually.
Changes are made to selected outputs. You have the following options for selecting outputs:
For the selected outputs, set the correction value using the arrow keys:
