Figure: Engine – Speed Settings
Ignition Release
Enter the release speed for the ignition at which the first ignition is to fire. The value shall not exceed 1/7 of the nominal speed.
Security Speed
Enter the security speed (max. half the nominal speed). Below the value entered, the ignition can be switched on and off as desired. If the ignition is deactivated during operation above the set speed, the ignition cannot be immediately reactivated. Only when the ignition no longer reads a speed, i.e., the engine has come to a standstill, can the ignition be reactivated.
Nominal Speed
Enter the nominal speed at which your engine is to be operated. With engines that are to be operated with variable speeds, the max. speed of the operating range must be entered.
Overspeed
Enter the speed at which the ignition is to be shut off as overspeed protection. With engines that are to be operated with variable speeds, a speed above the operating range must be entered.
Max. Power-on Speed
Enter the maximum permitted start speed at which the MIC100 starts sending ignition pulses.
A value of 6000 rpm is set as the default value: The MIC100 can be activated at the starter speed and immediately send ignition pulses.
For a value of 0 rpm the MIC100 can only start sending ignition pulses once it has registered that the engine is at a standstill.
