Setting up a redundant pickup system

The index/reset position can be only configured for pickup set 1. For the pickup set 2, the index/reset position is determined automatically the first time the engine is started after the ignition controller has been configured. The following procedure must be ensured:

  1. Download the configuration to the ignition controller.
  2. Start the engine.
    • The ignition controller synchronizes both pickup sets.
    • In the window Runtime Data – Overview, the status display Available in the area Pickup Redundancy is illuminated green if the synchronization has been successfully completed.
    • The index/reset position for the pickup set 2 is now determined and stored automatically.

The saved position is cleared when a configuration is downloaded to the device again. The index/reset position for the pickup set 2 cannot be configured manually.
