Trigger output based on crankshaft angle

For an experimental setup, I need a trigger signal at a specified crankshaft angle.
For example, I'd like the MS to put out a pulse at 10°BTDC.

I guess I could watch the spark output and subtract the ignition advance, but maybe there's an easier way?

This is currently not possible. There was a discussion a long time ago by Ken, who proposed the "angle clock", but I no longer think it's in the todo list.

The knock system allows for an angle based windows output signal, perhaps you could tap into that.

Seems like it will work. Thanks!

The int/hold signal? That means that he won't be able to use the exact know window that he wants, but obviously there's no other way.
