Basic ignition timing control
The ignition signals are output for the ignition timing that has been programmed according to the
engine speed.
Normally, the ignition timing is controlled so that it is between BTDC 6 degrees and BTDC 26
degrees.
In addition, this ignition timing is controlled when the engine is started, during acceleration, and
according to the engine cooling water temperature.
