SPARKER DCCDIP1 Race v106: Hardware
SPARKER DCCDIP1 Race v106: Hardware
SPARKER DCCDIP1 race is an ignition unit suitable for 1 and some 2 cylinder motorcycles. The ignition principle is
capacitive. The unit is programmable through PC. The unit is fully adjustable regarding the ignition timing. It contains two
switcheable ignition advance curves / maps dependent on RPM and position of throttle or underpressure in the intake manifold.
The ignition also contains output for tachometer, three multifunctional outputs, four multifunctional inputs, outputs and an
input for the servomotor exhaust throttle and a configurable input for a correction potentiometer. The unit is also equipped with
some racing features - mainly Quickshift, Gear shift light and Start limiter. During programming, the unit is connected to a
computer via a serial port. DCCDIP1 RACE.EXE configuration software ("software") is included. Connection is provided via
a waterproof connector JAE MX23A 34-NF1.
HARDWARE
Supply voltage +12 V input
The unit is possible power supply with two ways:
1) DC power supply (battery).
Nominal supply voltage should be 14 V. It must be within the range from 7 to 20 V. Within this range, the ignition unit is able
to control all processes. The ignition unit will be switched off if voltage exceeds 20 V (overvoltage protection). With low
voltage (under 10 V) spark energy can decrease at high engine speed. Supply voltage is connected with the positive pole to
+12V (pin 5) and with the negative pole to GND (pin 10).
Pins 4, 10, 26 and 30 are interconnected inside the unit. They can all be used either to connect the power (power supply)
ground or to connect the ground for sensors. Ground for sensors should be connected from unit and it should not be
interconnected with power ground or with engine or chassis mass.
2) AC power supply (low voltage AC generator).
Main winding of AC generator should be connected to MAIN AC SUPPLY (pins 14 and 15). If AC generator contains also
auxiliary winding - it should be connected to AUXILIARY AC SUPPLY (pin 17) and ground. Current capacity of each
winding should not exceed 1.5 A.
During AC supply power is measured supply voltage in on-line monitor approx. 18 V. This value is not battery voltage at bike.
We recommended to consult AC supply voltage with us.
Multifunction inputs
The unit contains four multifunctional inputs. Inputs should activate with switch with respect to ground. Input can activate
various functions preselected with software:
KILL SWITCH - the unit will stop ignition when input is grounded.
BLOCKING - the unit will stop ignition when input is ungrounded (security circuit of sidestand).
QUICKSHIFT - activate Quickshift sequence (gear shift up with full gas).
RETARD - decrease ignition advance with preselected value in full range.
START LIMTER - activate Starting limiter (launch control).
2nd ADVANCE CHART - switch to 2th ignition advance curve/map.
GEAR - only multifunctional input 3 (standard resistor gear position sensor is expected).
SPEED - only multifunctional input 4 (standard hall type vehicle speed sensor is expected).
Multifunctional switch 1 should connected with one outlet to M IN 1 (pin 19) and with second outlet to ground.
Multifunctional switch 2 should connected with one outlet to M IN 2 (pin 12) and with second outlet to ground.
Multifunctional switch 3 should connected with one outlet to M IN 3 (pin 1) and with second outlet to ground.
Multifunctional switch 4 should connected with one outlet to M IN 4 (pin 13) and with second outlet to ground.
POTENTIOMETER input
The correction potentiometer wiper will be connected to POT (pin 2). Start of potentiometer path will be connected to SENSE
GND (pin 4 or 30) and end of potentiometer path will be connected to +5V (pin 21 or 28) . Use the software to select which
value will be corrected by the potentiometer.
Tachometer output.
The tachometer output is compatible with most dashboard instruments used on motorcycles. The number of pulses per one
revolution is set in the software application.
The tachometer is supplied with +12 V wit respect to ground. The tachometer input is connected to the TACHO (pin 3).
Multifunctional outputs
The unit contains three multifunctional outputs (Power Outs). Outputs are type NPN opek collector (it provide ground when is
switched on). Outputs can switch resistive or inductive load up to 2 A. Outputs can work with various modes preselected with
software:
Fuel pump - it is switched on for 4 seconds after unit switch on and always when engine is running.
Gear shift light - two stage gear shift light.
PowerJet Honda - behavior like PowerJet at Honda RS125.
Special - switch on and and switch off according curve/map with pulse-width modulation possibility (powerjet).
Special PWM - continuous control with pulse-width modulation according curve/map (powerjet for example).
Speciál pulse - continuous control using the pulse length according curve/map (oilmaster for example).
Multifunctional output 1: Load should connected with one outlet to POWER OUT 1 (pin 6) and second outlet to +12 V.
Multifunctional output 2: Load should connected with one outlet to POWER OUT 2 (pin 7) and second outlet to +12 V.
Multifunctional output 3: Load should connected with one outlet to POWER OUT 3 (pin 8) and second outlet to +12 V.
Icons menus
- sets default values. Warning!!! Clicking this icon results in automatic default settings of all parameters.
- tools for going back or forward step by step when changing the settings.
- by pushing it measures and sets voltage for 0% TPS (unit connected with PC, no gas).
-by pushing it measures and sets voltage for 100% TPS (unit connected with PC, full gas).
After determining the limit values, it is necessary to store these values in the ignition by pushing the "program" button,
otherwise they will not be executed.
Switching into 2nd advance chart
Acc. tres. - acceleration treshold. Value of engine acceleration at which the map is switched from Advance map 1 to
Advance map 2. If this function is not desirable, it is necessary to set a high acceleration value which cannot be reached (25000).
Acceleration = - visualisation of current engine acceleration.
Potentiometer - this is used to select which value will be corrected by correction potentiometer. Zero position is 2500 mV.
Off - no correction.
Ignition advance - the potentiometer will be to correct ignition advance by +/- the value set in the Range cell.
Starting limiter - the potentiometer will be to correct starting limiters by +/- the value set in the Range cell.
Gear-shift light - the potentiometer will be to correct gear shift light by +/- the value set in the Range cell.
Acceleration treshold - the potentiometer will be to correct acceleration threshold by +/- the value set in the Range cell.
On the bottom left of this tab there are some statistical data collected from the unit. These data are read out even in the case
when the version of the unit control firmware and software are not compatible. It is sufficient when the connection is
established and active. The following data are read: The name of DCCDIP1 race unit, firmware version date, number of
programming sessions.
Base advance - is the angular difference between the position when the crankshaft position sensor is directed to the end
of the virtual pulse lobe pulse and the top dead centre position (see angle "base advance" in the picture below). This value is
always determined by the mechanical constitution of pickup system and shall never be changed by software settings!!!
The field "Base advance" thus is not there to change the base advance: into this field the value must be entered that
corresponds to the physical condition of the engine. Use stroboscope lamp for check of base advance value.
To the first point of the revolution of advance curve the unit ignites on the value of base advance (at the end of the virtual pulse
lobe). The exception is the "Start of lobe system" that can ignite at the beginning of the of the virtual pulse lobe. Therefore
for revolutions lower than the first point of advance curve early ignition point cannot be set, as it is derived from the
mechanical design of the pickup system!!! The first revolution point of the curve in most cases should be chosen above
idle speed!!!
Please contact us in case of any uncertainties regarding the design of the pickup systems and their functioning with unit.
