FTSPARK
5.9 Spark plugs
Using non-resistive spark plugs greatly increases spark energy with capacitive
ignitions, however not all installations will function properly depending on the
level of interference generated. In these cases using resistive spark plugs is
mandatory.
Keep the spark plugs clean and free of oil or grease to prevent electrical
insulation problems.
Spark plugs that do not allow GAP adjustment or surface discharge are
designed for use only in naturally aspirated engines. For turbocharged engines
keep the spark plug GAP always less than 0.02 in.
WARNING
Faults in the ignition system due to excessive GAP damage the coils
and also FTSPARK. When the energy released by the ignition cannot
find a path to be dissipated, it returns to the coil or to the output of the
FTSPARK output.
6. FTSPARK control
FTSPARK has two operation modes. Individual triggering (using two or more
ignition outputs) or through Serial bus (1 wire).
6.1 Individual triggering
For the Power FT product line, it is necessary to enable the FTSPARK option
and select multiple outputs in the ignition settings. For older modules, it’s
necessary to select SparkPRO/3 wires option with a dwell time of 3 ms. Longer
or shorter times may cause abnormal operation. The recommended voltage on
input signals is 0V to low level and 5-14V to high level. Use ECU NEGATIVE
(pin 32) connected to the sensor ground output of FT600 or battery negative
in other situations as a reference for these triggering signals.
6.2 Serial bus triggering
In this mode, FTSPARK operates using signals present in IGNITION INPUT A
only. This mode allows more outputs to be used in other features and reduces
the quantity of harness wires. This mode is only available when the FTSPARK
is connected to an ECU of the Power FT product line.
