Datalogging project for older engines...
Customer of mine asked if I could build him a datalogger/monitoring system for his OB. Just got something working in prototype form, part of it requires rpm measurement and datalogging of run time/hours... But the first challenge was to get it sensing at all.
Basically by making basic pick up and some basic filtering on the signal I have fed this into a small microprocessor and is snowing me engine RPM on my laptop... It will do a whole lot more than this to allow the owner to optimise prop/engine for speed etc, but this part was just testing that the pickup works...
