Paul,

The arduino based engine monitor is coming along.

I currently have a RX8 trigger wheel and sensor that will feed the Tracy's EC-4 box.

Can I feed the engine monitor off of the same sensor for a tach value displayed via the arduino?

What kind of signal conditioning is required so I can keep the EC-4 happy.

I think the EC-4 is the same as the EC-3 but with just one processor.

Thanks for any help.

The RX8 trigger wheel requires some sophisticated programing to derives the necessary information
from it. I have no idea what the EC-4 does inside. Tracy does not release the source code.

Put a carb on it :)
