Installation

ALTERNATOR WIRE (JABIRU)

The most common tachometer pickoff location for Jabiru 2200 and 3300 engines is one of the
alternator wires. Splice a wire off one of the two white alternator wires, connect it through a 1-
amp fuse to the RPM Left input on the EMS-D10.

DIGITAL IGNITION AND OTHER PICKOFFS

The EMS-D10 can read frequency-based RPM signals, provided the peak voltage is at least 10
volts above ground. If the peak voltage exceeds 50 volts, use the included 30kΩ resistors as
described in the P-lead Pickoff section above. Like the other methods above, you must know the
number of pulses per revolution for your RPM transducer.

Manifold Pressure Sensor

EMS-D10 Installation Guide

3-5

The manifold pressure sensor is an integral
assembly consisting of three pins, a rubber
seal, and a connector housing. Strip 3/16”
insulation off the ends of the three wires listed
at right. Slide the three rubber seals onto the
three wires and the pins onto the ends of the
wires. Crimp the 3 provided pins onto the
ends of the wires, ensuring that the long tabs
that cradle the rubber seal wrap around the seal (see picture at
right for example). For more details on preparing and crimping
the Weather Pack pins, see

Function

Note that you will need access to the +5V excitation circuit for
other sensor installations, so make allowances for breaking out
the connection to other areas. Route the three wires to the
location where you would like to mount the manifold pressure
sensor.
Plug the crimped pins into the provided Weatherpack connector.
Now, mount the manifold pressure sensor in a secure fashion
using the mounting holes on either side of the sensor.
The pressure port on the manifold pressure sensor requires 1/4” inner
diameter tubing for a secure fit. You may need to use adapters to
convert down to smaller inner diameter tubing for your specific
engine. We recommend that you use pipe clamps at every transition
point, including at the sensor itself.

If you notice fluctuations on the manifold pressure reading on the
EMS-D10, you may need to install a restrictor with a small hole
inline between the sensor and the head where the manifold
pressure line is split off.
