can the ignitech be programed on the bench or does it need to be connected to the 12v and elec sys of the bike with the engine running?

Thats the one you need and yes it needs to be connected to the bike 12v system unless you have the lead for on the bench programing. One you have the driver installed goto your system properties and look under hardware to see which port your usb2serial has been assigned to. Set your ignitech program to this port, the autocom function didnt work for me.

ok got the bike running this evening, and firing on all 4 thanks to uber pikey, top man that, karma on its way.

ive communicated and had a little play, i set the RPM to 5k and ill be damned it works!

i notice that the tacho reading it way out on the computer in comparison to the clock, like 300rpm ish.

how do i adjust this lads?

also what else should i toy with to make the most of it?

thanks brothers

I think the pc/ignitech tacho will be more accurate than the standard one. You can't calibrate the standard tacho.

i thought you could set a correction after all its the CDI thats controls it via the pickups right?
