Yes, if it's jumpered for logic level spark output.

If I use the EDIS module
What should be the pin numbers be on the Microsquirt?
# DB37 pin #36 to the SAW pin (#3) on the ignition module
# DB37 pin #24 to the PIP pin (#1) on the ignition module

PIP goes to the OPTOIN+ wire, SAW goes to IGN1.

Hi all,
I'm using an EDIS-8 module with PIP signal going to OPTOIN+ and the SAW on IGNITION1. But i have no idea whether my Microsquirt has it's jumpers set-up for this configuration. Currently i have no speed signal when cranking the engine. Any advice on what's going wrong would be much appreciated! Thanks

Aha! - i found the page on logic-level jumper configurations so will check this first. Maybe this is causing the lack of a speed signal.
Could i have damaged the EDIS module if the jumper configuration was set for coil driving?

Problem sorted, engine now starts and runs (wahey!).
I hadn't connected OPTOIN- to ground, but i only found this out by searching the forum. Perhaps there should to be a new page on the manual for setting up microsquirt with EDIS or other ignition modules because the current one shows the pins the same as MSII. Even with lots of cross-referencing the different diagrams, it took me a long time to work out which pins on the AMPseal relate to those on the DB37 connector.
That aside, i am very happy with my Microsquirt controller.
