Here are some instructions how to connect the Tachometer version II to a single cylinder. Thanks Firoz! (3/9/2007)

Hello Jose,
Taken from http://www.josepino.com
I found your PIC project collection very nice. I have been working on tachometer for my motorcycle.

In your article you said that you don't know how to connect the signal wire to automotive.

I have a idea using simple transistor by which you can connect your tachometer circuit to any automotive. Its based on inductive pickup and very easy to install. Have a look at the pic. (remove LED and connect transistor collector to pin4).

I hope it will exactly suits to your tachometer.

Regards firoz

That is great information! I guess you are using a coax cable to connect the coil to the circuit. Thanks Firoz!
