Functional Description

The devices of the MIC100 series are microprocessor controlled ignition systems, each consisting of a board with a 32 bit main processor (CPU).

Please note that the manufacturer is not generally required to implement configurations of the ignition controller for specific engines, and that devices may be delivered without pertinent configuration.

The ignition controllers of the MIC100 series use information supplied by the pickup to precisely determine the correct timing for the respective outputs. The ignition timing is influenced by various inputs. This can be implemented using analog input signal, a speed characteristic, or using a serial interface (CAN bus).

By checking the information received, the ignition controllers continuously monitor the system status of the installed pickup and the correct operation of the primary ignition circuit during operation.

Depending on the severity of an error that is detected, the device will shut down immediately or warn the operator. A corresponding message can be viewed on a connected computer.

To protect the engine, the ignition controllers additionally have an adjustable overspeed shut-off.
