NOTE: The DIP switches are located just to the
right of the Hall Effect trigger. DIP switches are
labeled #1, #2 and #3. For the DIP switches,
the forward position is “ON” as labeled and the
backward position is “OFF”. The DIP switches
only move about 1/16” between the forward and
backward positions. These DIP switches are
delicate and you do NOT need to use a crow
bar to move them – a very small eye glass
type screw driver or a pick tool and very light
pressure works well.
The E-Fire Distributor a 3 position DIP switch on
the circuit board. When all of the switches are
off, the advance curve can be set by using the
external HHC or PC software. If any of the
switches are set to “ON”, then the selected
curve will be one of the seven pre-programmed
curves, according to the table below:
Advance Curve Theory And Setup
These distributors have a total of 8 selectable
advance curves. Seven are preprogrammed,
and can’t be changed, and there is the “custom”
selection, which allows you to select up to three
separate curve segments. Each segment has a
start RPM, an end RPM, and an advance
amount. For segments two and three, the start
RPM is automatically set to the end RPM of the
previous segment, so the settings will show only
an end RPM and an advance amount.
