Ignition Home Screen

=== STATUS ===
Displays the current status of the ignition system. Possible statuses include:

* “Configuration/Setup Required” – Configuration and setup have not been completed
* “Ready to Start” – The ignition system is waiting for timing inputs from the engine
* “Engine Operation Detected” – Timing inputs have been detected and the ignition is preparing to start
* “Ignition Started” – Ignition is firing, but the engine is not yet at full running speed
* “Engine Running” – The engine and ignition are running properly
* “Engine Running with Warnings” – The engine is running, but warnings are present
* “Ignition Stopped – Critical Alarm” – The engine has been stopped due to a critical alarm
* The alarm must be acknowledged in the Alarms screen (Pg. 40) in order to re-start the ignition
* “External Shutdown” – The shutdown input is grounded
* “Compression Test Mode” – The ignition is locked out and will not start during cranking
* “Firing Order Test Mode” – The ignition is firing desired coils with the engine off to verify wiring and operation
* “Bad Configuration” – There is a setup or configuration issue

=== TIMING BOX ===
The timing box on the Ignition Home screen (Pg. 400) displays the active total timing. The timing display can be clicked to go to a larger timing display screen (Pg. 443) to see the three timing components of total timing- rpm advance, load advance, and base timing. The base timing can be adjusted here as well. Values displayed on this secondary screen are:

* “Total Timing” – Current and active timing of the ignition system
* Sum of the “Base Timing”, “RPM Advance”, and “Load Advance” timing values
* “Base Timing” – User adjustable fixed timing
* Adjusted through the “Advance Base Timing” and “Retard Base Timing” buttons
* Increments are +/- 0.25°
* “RPM Advance” – Amount of timing advance added to the total timing for changes in RPM
* RPM advance timing is configured during the setup process
* “Load Advance” – Amount of timing advance or retard added to the total timing for changes in manifold pressure
* Load advance timing is optional and requires a manifold pressure transducer for operation
* Timing is typically retarded for increases in load or manifold pressure

=== STATUS LIGHTS ===
At the bottom of the Ignition Home screen are three status lights- “System”, “Timing”, and “Alarm”. These lamps give a quick snapshot of system status. Clicking on this area will go to the Engine Running Diagnostics and Testing screen (Pg. 420 or 422), to see runtime diagnostics.

==== Status Light ====

* Displays green if the Ignition is connected and powered on, and configuration is complete.

==== Timing Light ====

* Off (white) when the engine is not turning
* Illuminates green if engine is turning and timing is valid
* Illuminates in yellow for minor timing issues while the engine is running
* Illuminates in red if the engine is not running and there are unexpected faults

==== Alarm Light ====

* Off (white) if there are no critical alarms
* On (red) if there are currently critical alarms

==== SPARK DURATIONS ====
The right side of the Ignition Home screen shows the current spark durations. If not relatively steady and similar values, this could indicate a problem with a plug or coil.
