8 Overview
M400
Up to four ignition outputs are available for multi coil applications.
M600
Up to six ignition outputs are available for multi coil applications.
M800 & M800
Up to 6 ignition outputs are available for multi coil applications.
Outputs not used for ignition may be used as Auxiliary Outputs.
Up to 8 coils may be driven from one Ignition Output using a MoTeC CDI8
or MoTeC Ignition Expander .
Up to 12 coils may be driven from two Ignition Outputs using two MoTeC
CDI8’s or two MoTeC Ignition Expanders.
Auxiliary Outputs
The ECUs have eight Auxiliary Outputs that may be used for :
Turbo Waste Gate Control, Idle Speed Control, Gear Change Light, Driver
Warning Alarm, Tacho Output, Fuel Pump Control, Thermatic Fan Control,
Fuel Used Signal, Air Conditioner Fan Control, Air Conditioner Clutch Control,
RPM / Load Activated Output, or other functions.
CAN Communications
The CAN Communications system is a high speed network communications
system that allows multiple devices to be connected and communicate with
each other.
The CAN connection is used for all communications with the PC via the ECU
Manager software which includes; calibration, diagnostics checking,
retrieving the logged data, firmware upgrading and enabling options.
CAN may be used to communicate with the MoTeC ADL Dash Logger.
CAN will also be used to communicate with future MoTeC devices.
RS232 Serial Communications
Optionally used to communicate with the MoTeC ADL Dash Logger. In this
case the ADL is effectively picking up Telemetry data from the ECU. (Note
that CAN communications may also be used to connect to the ADL)
