Forum thread on www.vemssupport.com : http://www.vemssupport.com/forum/index.php/topic,2248.0.html Engine setup: * V12 with ITBs and turbo Sensor/setup * 6 teeth on crank * 1 tooth on cam ''' Problem ''' The issue with 12 cylinders and this trigger setup is that you require 12 actual events to be defined between cam sync pulses. One for each crank tooth. The '''trigger reference tooth table''' is limited to 8 cylinders. I have previously asked for a more flexible solution for 10 cylinder engines as well. Simple solution would be : * Increase length of trigger ref tooth table * Or allow the trigger logic to accept cam sync every other crank revolution and still use only 6 rows of the ref tooth and ignition output table. Wasted spark (even fire) engines only. A: If its an even fire v12, the coils can easily be wired in pairs (as well as injectors). Therefore 6 only 6 cells would be needed in reftooth table - DB. Q: This is not my car or my project, it is many 1000 kms away. I will try to help him. He can not change the trigger wheels. The fact that it can be set up as wasted spark is no surprise to me - the point of this page is that we know it can be, but the trigger setup does not agree. or does it? \ Here is how I would try to do it, VemsTune complains about setting this up : * Number of teeth of full engine cycle : 12 ** Setting to 6 and it does not complain * Next trigger tooth : 1 * Ref tooth table : 0,1,2,3,4,5 It would be nice if someone could simulate and check that both revolutions of the crank get spark and fuel, not only the first. If the firmware logic expects to see 6 teeth and then camsync, and doesn't until 6 more teeth have passed, will that just cause trigger errors? If what you're saying is true a 4 cylinder engine with 2 teeth on the crank and 1 pulse cam sync should be able to run with wasted spark by defining only two rows in the ignition output table and trigger reference tooth table. * Number of teeth of full engine cycle : 2, 4 ? * Next trigger tooth : 1 * Ref tooth table : 0,1 Will the firmware automatically understand that the cycle repeats twice or throw trigger errors? '''Avoid''' primary trigger settings ''visual'' dialog, it can sometimes wreak havoc with the settings when you try things outside what it knows, so open the dialog carefully.
