No matter the conditioner the pin outline should be facing UP, and the gaps in the white marking, or sometimes it’s a half-moon, should line up. See pic.

My first time here.
I am interested and it is about time something like this has been built.
Thanks
I have been working with an ssr interface for hall sensor input and outputs to ignition and injectors. Looks real promising.
I am having some luck with hall sensor ac volt through bridge rectifier to gate ssr.
I have read in two places that arduino can work with dc rectified pulse signal just fine.
From what I understand if I use a missing tooth set up the arduino can see the 0 v signal just fine.
The question is:
Can arduino see the 0v if the 5v is not square wave?
I have a bench set up to test with a variable speed motor so I can read the volt and amp out put at different rpms from hall sensor. I can read the in put and the ssr out put. I can see the dc volt and the peak volts. All look safe for the arduino board.
I know about the adc/vr boards and that they work great. Just looking at a different set up for fun and learning.
Will this work with your shield?
I know it will work on all out puts.
But the what about the hall sensor dc rectified in put after going through an ssr??????
I wish to use your board with many ssr interfaces.
I hope I am clear with this as I am a new comer to electronics and to ecu’s in general.
4 moths now.
Thanks to all.

Hi Mark,
I’m not sure how well that will work. If the 0-5v is not square, it will not treat the signal as high until it reaches some threshold. I would guess somewhere between 2.5-3v. A VR conditioner detects the zero crossing of the AC signal, which is well below the threshold. Experiment, have fun, that’s what we are all here doing in our own way. 🙂 Just be sure that before you try to make an engine run with it, that you have it well worked out, or the engine might not last long.
Thanks, Weaver
