the Mallory SparkMap software
MIL - Malfunction indicator light - ground output to illuminate a MIL
light when a trouble code has been set. The trouble code can be
read with the Mallory SparkMap software.
2 Step - a 12v input on this line activates the 2 step rev limiter
based on settings in the Mallory SparkMap software.
3 Step - a 12v input on this line activates the 3 step rev limiter
based on settings in the Mallory SparkMap software.
Signal Ground - provides ground circuit for sensor inputs such as
ECT, IAT and TPS.
VSS - Vehicle Speed Sensor input.
ECT - Engine Coolant Temperature signal input
IAT - Intake Air Temperature signal input
Fan 1 - ground output to control a single electric fan relay based on
temperature settings in the Mallory SparkMap software.
Fan 2 - ground output to control a secondary electric fan relay
based on temperature settings in the Mallory SparkMap software.
PTS - points trigger input. This line is used to trigger the module
from a distributor module output, coil negative wire, or Gen 7/
Thruster EST wire input.
In points trigger mode the ignition advance tables programmed in
the module are ignored and timing is based on the distributor or
module triggering it.
Tach - Engine speed output for an external tachometer or as an RPM
input to another module (i.e. Gen 7/Thruster ECM in fuel only mode)
TPS - Throttle Position Sensor signal input
UEGO - Universal Exhaust Gas Oxygen (wideband O2) sensor input
Data - ground input to trigger internal datalogging for applications
where datalogging without a laptop is required.
Aux 2 - Ground output. Use to ground a relay based on settings in
the Mallory SparkMap software ouput configuration screen
FP / Aux 3 - Ground output to control a fuel pump relay, or other
auxiliary relay based on settings in the Mallory SparkMap software
ouput configuration screen
Switched 12v Out - 12v output at key on to provide power to other
modules.
ROUTING WIRES
Route all wires away from heat sources, sharp edges, and moving
objects. Route the trigger wires separate from the other wires and
spark plug wires. If possible, route them along a ground plane, such as
the block or firewall, which creates an electrical shield. The magnetic
pickup wires should be routed separately and twisted together to help
reduce extraneous interference. For best results use Shielded Ground
Cable.
WARNING: The Firestorm Ignition Control Module is a capacitive
discharge ignition. High voltage is present at the coil primary
terminals. Do not touch these terminals or connect test equipment
to them.

PRESTART CHECKLIST
• The only wires connected to the coil terminals should be the shielded
clear connected to coil positive (+) and shielded black connected to
coil negative (–).
• The small red/white wire is connected to a switched 12 volt source, such
as the ignition key. This wire must be hot in crank and run positions.
• Power leads are connected directly to the battery positive and nega-
tive terminals.
• If you’re not using an alternator, the battery should be connected and
fully charged.
• The engine MUST be equipped with at least one ground strap to the
chassis.
Installing Mallory SparkMap Software and programming
the module for first use.
Install the Mallory SparkMap software from the CD included in the
kit. Connect the included serial communication cable to your PC. It
may be necessary to use a USB to serial adapter if your PC is not
equipped with a serial port. Turn the ignition key on and select “Online
to Firestorm”. If you are using a USB to serial adapter, you will need to
determine which port your computer is using for your adapter. This can
be found in your PC device manager under “Ports”. Device manager
can be found under My Computer / Properties. The details of how to
access it can vary slightly depending on your operating system. If you
need assistance with this, contact the MALLORY Technical Service
