5.0 PRIMARY WIRING
5.1
The CD200D system requires a battery or other DC power source providing
12-30Vdc for running and a minimum of 8 volts for engine starting. Refer to
FIG. 2 for details of the connection to the DC power source.
5.2
Primary wiring hookup is shown in the wiring diagram template – FIGS. 5 or 6.
Use the table below to record the actual firing order and wiring.

The common coil ground lead on all units is the J harness lead.
5.3
All connections at unshielded coils should be made using ring-type terminals
specified for 16 AWG (1.5 sq. mm) wire and #10 (5mm) stud size. Terminals
should either be soldered to the wire or attached with an appropriate staking
tool. Protect primary wiring from physical damage, vibration and temperatures
in excess of 200°F. (95°C.).
5.4
For details of the hookup for the analog timing signal, see FIG. 7.
6.0 SHUTDOWN WIRING
6.1
The CD200D system is shut-off by interrupting the DC power to the unit; use
a switch or relay with contacts rated 24Vdc, 10 amps - refer to FIG. 2.
6.2
The CD200D can also be shutdown by using the G-lead of the output harness.
To shutdown the unit, connect the G-lead of the output harness to ground. The
CD200D will draw about 0.1 ampere from the power source when shutdown,
see FIG. 5 or 6.
7.0 SECONDARY WIRING
7.1
With unshielded coils, spark plug leads should be fabricated from 7mm, silicone
insulated, ignition cable with suitable terminals and silicone spark plug boot.
7.2
Keep spark plug leads as short as possible and at least 2" (50mm) away
from any grounded engine part. In deep spark plug wells, use rigid, insulated
extenders projecting out of the well.
7.3
The use of a clear, silicone grease (such as Dow Corning DC-4, G.E. G-623
or GC Electronics Z5) is recommended for all high-tension connections and
boots. This material helps seal out moisture and prevent corrosion from atmo-
spheric sources.

NOTE: Keep the primary wiring at least
2" (50mm) away from the spark plug
leads.
NOTE: Do NOT run the input power line
through a series of normally closed
switches.
NOTE: The CD200D should not be
used to power ignition-powered panel
instruments.
NOTE: The use of resistance spark
plug cable or individual 5,000 ohm
resistors (mounted either at the spark
plug or coil) is recommended.
