Running more than 1 tooth per cylinder
Set the Ignition Type parameter to “Normal”. If there are more trigger teeth per cam cycle than cylinders, then set the number of teeth per cam cycle parameter to the number of teeth counted. It is important to remember that 1 cam cycle is equal to 2 crank revolutions therefore if the trigger wheel is running off the crank then you must double the count.
Note: The number of teeth per cam cycle must divide down equally by the number of cylinders. Below is an example for a 24-tooth wheel on a 4-cylinder engine.
eg. 24 teeth divided by 4 cylinders = 6. This is ok.
eg. 18 teeth divided by 4 cylinders = 4.5. WILL NOT WORK!
The teeth must be spaced evenly and a sync sensor MUST be used. The trigger tooth directly after the sync sensor tooth is the index tooth and is usually positioned in front of the trigger sensor when the engine is somewhere between TDC and 15 deg BTDC on cylinder number 1.
