Modding V3 board with HE to use VR?

Post by lukej »

Morning chaps,

I did the following mods to my MSII to go with a HE sensor but I now want to change to using VR since I've gone for a new triggerwheel setup that has much finer teeth...

TACHSELECT to XG1
TACHIN to pin24
C30(top) to S12C to JS9
TSEL to OPTOOUT
1k resistor @R12

Am I better off undoing all of the above or can what I have be used for VR?

Cheers!

Took me a minute to figure out what you meant by an HE sensor - I couldn't figure out why you were trying to use High Explosives. Gives new meaning to "blown engine" ...

Wire it up according to the manual for a VR sensor; adjust the pots for a hall sensor. Stick C30 in the H1 pads.
Temporarily shut down - back soon!

Yeah, I was trying to relate it to GM's HEI dizzys...
