Programmable ignitions NEED an external pickup to be able to change the advance timing.
The external pickup is the TIMING REFERENCE.
That is why SEM, MVT, PVL, SELLETRA stators with their so-called “internal timing” CANNOT work with this CDI.

Tip: No need to use all 13 points if the curve is straightforward.
Just use the first 2 or 3 timing pairs ! The ignition box will process that faster.

CDI ignitions need a CAPACITIVE coil type (AKA Transformer type) for CDI (Not a INDUCTIVE coil for TCI)
Ignition coils are different from TCI to CDI systems.
A CDI ignition can work with a TCI coil but the spark energy will be halved ! Why CDI coils don’t work with TCI ignitions?
– CDI coils have low inductance (L=0.1 to 0.7mH) and primary resistance of around 0.3 to 0.8ohm
– TCI coils have higher inductance (L=4 to 15mH) and primary resistance of around 1 to 5ohm
CDI coils: IMFsoft, Ignitech, FireCore, FuelTech, PW, M&W, Suzuki coil, Kawazaki coil,

great job congratulations! I wanted to ask you, in your opinion is it possible that it works on a vespa 50 (pk 50 s) with electronic ignition? In this case I’m talking about the original Ducati 4-pole ignition with pick-up on the stator. In case I can send you some photos or you can find them on the internet! Thanks and Merry Christmas!
Thanks!
Is it this one ?
If it has one external pickup, only one bar on the flywheel and a +12v battery: Yes it works.
You just have to be sure that the pickup puts out a positive pulse first otherwise you’ll have to invert the 2 wires that go the pkp.
(Read Pickup polarity section in this page)
Regards
Hello! I only saw the message now! Then the stator (4 poles) has the internal pickup and the external HV coil. is the model without battery!

Thanks for the Answer! I want the V11 so bad but from the text I took it that it sadly won’t work with 2 pick-ups, right?
After reading the text more thoroughly, I think that two pickups should work, but I’m not sure where I can connect the second one, just to the same port as the first? (That can’t be right, can it? )
Or do I not need two pickups at all with the programmable ignition curve and one is enough? (sorry for the spam)
You took it right. ACCDIv11 DID NOT used 2 pickups.
In fact it didn’t need the LOW pickup that sends a pulse at 12°btdc
The cdi uses the HIGH rpm pickup at 36° to make 12° from it.
I’m currently testing a new version of ACCDIv11r5c1 with added features (See https://transmic.fr/2021/08/14/ac-cdi-v11/#versions )
This version now uses the two pickups on XT550-600 but I haven’t got the time to write the documentation…
Thank you so much!
I think I’m slowly getting there.
now I ask myself only the question with the wiring. I have the circuit diagram from am motorcycle, sind from the pickups come 3 cables: 12°, 36° and the pickup ground. Is said ground important or is it simply ignored?
and what exactly is the HV cable in your wiring scheme? a brown and a red cable come out of my alternator, where do i connect them?
Oh i see now your updatet wiring, thanks! going to purchase
I have purchased this excellent product for older 4-stroke motorcycles, programmable curve between 0 degrees and 38 degrees. Thank you for your help and knowledge on these products.
Ciao Thierry, do you have any experience using your CDI on a points Piaggio Ciao / Bravo ?
Hi,
No. But there is not improvement in performance to expect on a 50cc…
ahahah…you are right but i m interested more in reliability than in performance !
Hello,
Looking for a cdi for Artic Cat spirit 500 2cyl 2 stroke. Have your accdi 2.7+ and have had the motor running but not well. nipponddenso 070000-0680 is factory unit cdi. Can you help out..
I think that the most reliable assembly is a TCI with a Hall sensor so there is no use of the alternator neither the pickup coil, but it needs a battery and it’s a big mod !
Hello,
You mean the Artic Cat snowmobile with the “Spirit” engine from Suzuki?
It seems to be a 360° parallel twin (both pistons up and down simultanously)
Beside it runs with the ACCDIv27+ so I bet there is only ONE pickup and a twin ignition coil to fire both cyl. at the same time.
Sure the ACCDIv27 is a crude ignition created as an affordable solution.
If you want to fine tune the advance timing, the ACCDIv11 is better (or a TCIv11 but the ignition coil MUST be replaced)
To set the v11 you MUST know the pickup position BTDC, don’t ask me
I described same ways to do it on both web pages.
Th
bonjour Thierry,
je suis motivé pour prendre la v11 pour ma xt 600 3TBK.
Petite question suite à la lecture de tes commentaires et quelques recherches :
la version ACCDIv11r5c1 permettrait d’utiliser les 2 capteurs (12° et 36°) si je vous comprends bien.
par contre il y’a une mofif Hardware dans la ACCDIv11r5c1 pour une deuxième entre analogique pour le capteur 12° donc.
La version actuellement en vente serait compatible ou dois-je attendre encore ?
Encore merci pour ton travail
Bonjour et merci pour votre commande.
La version a ce jour est ACCDIv11r6c1 donc elle integre de r5c1 une entrée pour le pickup low a 12° dans le cas des XT600.
merci pour votre réponse.
Colis réceptionné ce jour, merci !!
Déjà connecté dessus j’ai un petit doute quand à la valeur du PICKUP
(oui mon anglais est …. fatigué.. et malgré google traduction je ne suis pas sur de comprendre)
en fait ces deux phrases me mette le doute :
“The “Pickup Position” on the Yam XT600 is 50°”
“The cdi uses the HIGH rpm pickup at 36°”
pourquoi 50° , on a un capteur 12° et un autre 36°
pouvez-vous svp me confirmer pour un 600XT:
PICKUP TYPE : 0 (vr analog)
PICKUP POSITION : 36 (BTDC)
aussi dans la documentation il n’y pas d’indication concernant SHAFT: Crankshaft ou CamShaft
je suppose que c’est pour ceux qui on le capteur sur le haut moteur ?
je laisse donc Crankshaft pour mon utilisation.
Encore merci,
hâte de tester sur la moto !!
Le pickup de la Yamaha XT600 est physiquement placé à 50°.
Le CDI attend un peu puis envoi l’étincelle à 36° BTDC.
Les pickups sont TOUJOURS positionnés a une valeur SUPÉRIEURE à la valeur d’avance maximale.
(pour obtenir 36° d’avance max, les ingénieurs Yam auraient pu placer mécaniquement le capteur a 37, 50, 70, 93° btdc etc, le CDI se débrouille mais il faut le lui dire.)
PICKUP TYPE : 0 (vr analog)
PICKUP POSITION : 50 (BTDC)
>je suppose que c’est pour ceux qui on le capteur sur le haut moteur ?
>je laisse donc Crankshaft pour mon utilisation.
Evidemment.
Merci pour votre réponse plus que complète !
Demain ça démarre du coup, j’ai hâte !
Bonjour ,
Je viens donner nouvelles,
j’ai enfin eu le temps de monter le CDI sur ma moto.
Malheureusement après de bonnes heures de recherche je sèche -> pas d’étincelles.
1) j’ai mesuré à l’oscilloscope je pense l’essentiel des composants (je peux faire des captures si besoin ?)
– vérif de la tension HT du stator : OK (sinus de -150v à +150v environ)
– vérif du capteur PICKUP : OK (premier pic positif d’environ 7v suivi du négatif à -7v)
2) j’ai enlever le faisceau elec de la moto et fait un faisceau sur mesure pour uniquement cabler le CDI tel que sur le schema “full rectification” (avec un inter pour le “kill switch” pour accéder au paramétrage facilement)
– je n’ai pas essayé en Half-rectification par contre.. mais je ne verrais pas pourquoi ce serait mieux
3) batterie neuve chargé ou alimentation de labo pour le 12v (avec test de masse différentes pour être sur , cadre, moteur, sur le régul, etc..)
4) bougie neuve, bobine neuve, antiparasite neuf (même si à l’ohmètre tout était bon mais j’avais ça en stock donc autant essayer)
-> les symptôme sont :
– sur la broche 1 (sortie CDI pour bobine) il n’y a rien : mesuré à l’oscillo. (bobine branchée ou non branchée)
– la led du boitier clignote si je fais tourner le démarreur ou un coup de kick (je suppose donc qu’il capte bien le PICKUP)
– j’ai mis une courbe d’avance simple à 3 points (500-8 ; 1000-10 ; 6000-30 ) , si je fais “READ” c’est bien écrit comme dans la doc.
Voilà, je vous avoue que je sèche . ça fait beaucoup à lire mais je tenais à essayer d’être le plus précis possible. Avez-vous une idée ou une piste ? je peux bien évidemment mesurer ou fournir d’autre informations si nécessaires
En vous remerciant par avance,
Robin
>la led du boitier clignote si je fais tourner le démarreur
Donc le CDI voit bien le pickup
>sur la broche 1 (sortie CDI pour bobine) il n’y a rien
C’est qu’il manque la Haute Tension
Essayez en Half rectification. J’ai vu des cas ou ca ne marchait pas en full. Surement a cause de masse non communes…

Encore merci pour les nombreux conseils et pour l’aide apporté.
A bientôt j’espère et bonne continuation !
do you plan on adding TPS support and therefore ignition mapping with rpm and throttle position to those devices?
No. One day perhaps but surely not yet.
To make a universal TPS input, you must deal with 2, 3 or 5 wires sensors. Sensors that go forward or backward, sensors that provide voltage, different min and max voltage or provide ohm resistance value… etc etc
And of course a real time 3D mapping. If you need more look at Megasquirt.

Good morning,
I wanted to check the “pickup position” angle (50 degrees on my yamaha XT600) with the stromboscopic lamp.
I set a fixed curve from 500 rpm to 6000 rpm: fixed advance 12 degrees. (and I increased the idle to 2500rpm)
I can’t get a fix point on the flywheel. it moves a lot so very difficult to adjust the value of “picikup position”.
I see the “TDC” mark through the hole with the strombo lamp so I already have almost 12 degrees not good
So my question are: What I’m doing wrong or what’s the precision of this CDI ?
(I can’t film, problem with frame rate and oil vapor projection, but I’m motivated for other tests)
Thanks in advance
Hello Thierry. I got an CR500 with an Aftermarket ignition from panthera. It has inside 90W light coils and one ignition coil. I will have a batterie installed. I got one Accdi and one dcccdi from you. Can i Connect the ignition coil too, or leave it alone? Second bike is Peugeot 103 with the original CDI ignition, how to Connect this to your ecu. I didn’t found a picture, where i can connect the ignition coil for power your cdi. Regards Frederick Krosse
[Open a NEW thread, don’t REPLY on a 3 years old comment!]
Hi, The ignition coil is the one connected to the sparkplug. I suppose you mean the Charging coil.
Of course ACCDI MUST be connected to the charging coil (high voltage output from stator)
DCCDI don’t need charging coil. You have version v12. On this one you can also connect a charging coil between pin2 and pin4/ground.
This way you have both charge but I think it’s useless and I never tested it.
First Peugeot 103 in the 70′ 80′ were with Magneto. Doesn’t work with my ACCDI.
If yours is ACCDI with external pickup, (like this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlIyjoU_ywg) you can connect it to ACCDI.
Which wires? I f… don’t know! Send me a wiring diagram and I will tell you.
Perhaps this YT video would help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUO2bCfuNSQ
