I looked at it and figured out the shiftlight using the spare ports configuration, but I couldn't see how to do the clutch switch input for selecting a lower launch RPM Limit. eg. when i pull the clutch in i want the rpm limiter to be set at 5000RPM but when the clutch is not in I want the rpm ...

Additions to Firmware

I Just received my MicroSquirt today and stated thinking some more about how everything is going to get hooked to my bike when I had a couple ideas.

First, a Launch RPM setting using the Spare ADC as an input for a normally open clutch switch. You could run 12V through switch and put a voltage ...

Ian.
Yeah, I guess that it is better to play it safe.

I Think that it can be a normal 1/8 or 1/4 watt resister. All that it is doing is pulling the output high instead of leaving it floating. Assuming 12v and a resistance of 1kOhm then the current through it will be 12mA. If I am wrong could someone who knows please let me know before i 'F' something ...

Ok, this is my understanding of your advice, is this correct?

Here is my guess at megatune settings:

Ignition input capture: Falling Edge
Cranking Trigger: Calculated
Coil Charging Scheme: Standard
Spark Output: Going High ...

Would the resistance and inductance be measured off the Primary Winding or the secondary winding?

Dual Spark Ignition

I have just ordered a microsquirt and have been looking at the installation instructions and other documentation and could not quite wrap my head arround how to wire up the dual spark for my application.

I have a 78 Suzuki GS1000 (inline 4 wasted spark)that i have converted from Points to Dyna S ...

Tuning Alpha-N

Am I correct in assuming that Speed Density would still be best for a turbo strip vehicle?
