patterns only. When the encoder is mounted to the crankshaft of a four-stroke engine, then a cam signal must be
provided to mask every other encoder Z pulse (FALSE = Mask, TRUE = Pass). When the encoder is mounted to the
crankshaft of a two-stroke engine, or the camshaft of a four-stroke engine, then masking may be disabled via the
Engine Position Tracking Setup window EncZMask control so that every encoder Z pulse passes through to the EPT
cam input.
Exp_CamX_DigChanAsn
Tip Strip: Assigns digital signal source to cam signal
Detail: There are two available Cam signal destinations named Cam1 and Cam2. Both have similar function. For
EPT encoder patterns, one of the Cam signals can be selected, via the Engine Position Tracking Setup window,
as the mask for the encoder Z pulse. For EPT N-M or N+1 patterns, one of the cam signals can be selected as
the direct EPT cam trigger input for four-stroke engine phase information. Other functions can be implemented on
the Cam signals for capturing the angle of the cam rising edges, configured via the Cam Phase Capture tab of the
Engine Position Tracking Setup window.
Exp_PFIX.Y_DigChanAsn
Tip Strip: Assigns digital signal source to channel during Direct and TMP Modes
Detail: Up to eight PFI channel destinations are available which will directly command the PFI channels from the
selected digital signal source. These destinations are only available when PFI Driver module(s) are inserted in the
assigned slot . In order to utilize this direct command functionality, the PFI Driver module must be placed into Direct
Mode or TMP Mode via the PFI X Module Control tab of the PFI and LS Driver X Setup window.
