Ref Pulses 0 0 0 $$ Defines the number of primary trigger pulses to skip between reference events to send to the ECU. The number of reference pulses sent to the ECU in one cycle must equal the number of engine cylinders. The primary trigger can have many more and skip unwanted pulses.

The module measures the time between normal trigger teeth, a tooth is determined to be the extra tooth when it occurs within this percentage of the previous tooth gap. During normal running the module always checks that this extra tooth occurs at the correct time to stay in sync with the trigger. % 0 0 $$ Above this RPM the sync pulses (360 slot outer trigger) will be ignored. The module must be set to use noise filtering on the Primary Input in this mode. There is 100RPM of hysteresis, ie if set to 1000RPM the sync pulses will be ignored above 1000RPM but will only begin processing again when the RPM falls below 900RPM.

Setting to 1 allows for +-1 of the expected value Example: If expecting 8 and 7,8 or 9 teeth are counted the module determines that sync is still valid. -+ 0 0 0 $$ See "Nissan Mode – Cumulative Tooth Error Count Threshold" for details. 0 0 0 $$ The cumulative error mode works in tandem with the allowable error from expected item. The difference being that the cumulative test is run over multiple sync windows as defined by "Sync Window Counts For Cumulative Errors". On every window the error from expected is summed or accumulated. After the number of sync windows if the summed count exceeds "Cumulative Error Tooth Count Threshold" a trigger reset occurs. Example: Sample length is 6 and threshold is 2. This allows for 2 errors in 6 trigger windows to remain in sync. NOTE: It is very important that the primary trigger tolerance is setup correctly. Combining a properly configured primary trigger tolerance and the cumulative threshold scalars the module can sucessfully reject intermittant electrical noise without any impact on ignition performance, it should not however be used to mask poor electrical installations. 0 0 0 $$ This is how many reference events will be sent to the ECU for one cycle, or two engine revolutions.

If the tooth occurs within the % time defined by this item the tooth is deemed valid and not noise or interference. % 1 0 0 $$ Not used for Nissan trigger type due to the high pulse count or ref/sync mode due to the long time between pulses (it cannot be accurately calculated, instead the pulse must occur between defined teeth on the primary trigger) % 1 0 0 $$ When an error occurs the module will drop back to module spark for this many reference pulses.
