Description
CoilX is a sensor module that safely intercepts the RPM signal from an ignition coil primary circuit into a clean 5v logic-level square wave that can be safely handled by the RaceCapture/Pro Timer / RPM input or other devices.
The module features an optically isolated circuit with additional filtering, to help prevent false triggers.
The 1" x 0.5" compact board is designed to be assembled with heat shrink and bundled in-line with your wiring harness.
Wiring Information
===Sensor Use 22 gauge wire to solder the connections to the CoilX module.
Be sure to clip the soldered wires flush to prevent sharp surfaces.
Slip then module into a length of heat shrink tubing or wrap in electrical tape to insulate the module. You can include this assembly with your wiring harness bundle.
