Need help with ignition timing scanner with PIC (my first interrupt project)

[Matej]

Hello,

I'm new at this forum. I've been using PicBasic for some easy projects (like pwm driver, same analog measuring...). Now I have a problem with starting a project.
The idea is to measure timing for internal combustion engines (motorcycle).

If I know the angle, PICK-UP is mounted (36 degrees), signal PICK-UP and ignition coil and also actual RPM, it is posible to calculate actual ignition angle ?

Like this: first signal come from PICK-UP, the next signal is from transducer on igniton coil. Mounted angle of PICK-UP is fixed (about 36 degrees). RPM can be calculated with PIC.


Signal 1 - from PICK-UP
Signal 2 - from ignition coil
Signal 3 - galvanic separated and combined


Can someone help me with the code to determine RPM and time betveen PICK-UP and ignition coil? I have a PIC 16F877. I have no expiriance with interrupts in PIC, so please help me.

Thanks

BR, Matej

Hi, its great to see you visiting our forum. Why not try Proton Compiler for FREE? Download the FREE version of Proton Compiler, Its called Amicus18 and its available from HERE Already using proton Compiler??? Get rid of these pesky messages... get LICENSED USER STATUS

[wastrix]

Just firstly... Are you using Proton Development Suite or PICBASIC PRO?

Thanks

Go to `settings' on the top right hand side of the website, and follow the registration requirements. Have the invoice number at hand as you need it.

Matei,

You did not register to be a licensed user, you registered to be a forum member. The version you have is an illegal copy of the compiler, and of so you annot be a licensed user. Please consider buying PDS and come back then.

It's a beta (as you said) and iz was legaly taken from the web (yust installed and it worked - no cracking or something else). Why would I asume it's not legal ?
I don't expect support but help from other forum users. It's OK that I have to buy it. And I will also do so, but why then this product? How can I know it's so good to buy it? I must test it before buying it (with full features).
