Step 6. Digital Channel Input Setup

Use this function to setup your LCU digital inputs as RPM and speed channels. 

The logger references a RPM or Speed input for both the logging criteria (not necessary if activating logger

with  Switch  Activate  option)  and  for  the  engine  logbook.  In  order  for  these  to  function  correctly  you  must

have at least one digital channel set to System Speed or System RPM. If no digital RPM inputs are available

for System RPM the logger must be enabled with a switch. See Step #8.

1. On the menu bar under Channels, click Digital Inputs

2. Select a Input Type for Digital channel. 

3.  If  connected  to  a  tach  output  signal  from  a  ignition  box  for  engine  RPM  enter  the  number  of  pulses  per

engine revolution. If using a trigger wheel or flying magnet enter number of magnets or Teeth on trigger wheel.

The logger calculates distance and speed from the number of pulses received from the wheelspeed sensors

and the tire diameter of each wheel.

4. Select trigger edge for sensor signal. Most sensors trigger off rising edge. If data is inconsistent or has drift,

sensor air gap is correct and pulses per rev are correct try changing trigger edge.

5. Click OK to save changes. 

·

The  System  Speed  Button  allows  users  the  option  of  combining    two  or  more  channels  to  create  your

System Speed channel. 

1. Open the Digital Inputs setup and press the System Speed button. 

2. Select the Active Inputs to be used. 

3. Pick one of the Mode options. 

NOTE

·

Reed Switch Speed Sensor #91116 purchased before Sept.09 require a .33uF capacitor be soldered across

the  signal  and  ground  wires  inside  the  Switchcraft  sensor  connector.  Refer  to  Connecting  a  Reed  Switch

Speed Sensor in Instrumentation section of QwikData 2 Manual.
