 Posted: Tue Jan 16, 2007 4:44 pm Post subject: LASAR ignition system questions |
 |
|
I have questions about the LASAR ignition system that I am planning to use.
I need an installation wiring diagram and the physical size of the controller (black box)
Does the controller need access for engine set-up or maintenance?
What is the approx. physical size of the controller?
Has anyone installed the controller on the cabin side of the firewall?
Any information about the T-300 ignition timing tool?
Any other LASAR system input will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul Grimstad

Contact Unison tech support person Steve Carter who would probably fax or
e-mail this to you. Contact info... (904) 739-4068,

Not sure what you're asking here. The controller box is non user servicable,
if there's a problem you'll remove it and send it back so you need to be
able to remove it. Of course the system will operate in conventional mag
mode without the controller. If you get the "bush kit" it will even start
without it because an impulse coupling is included. If you are ordering an
engine from Bart (Aero Sport Power) he configures all his LASAR
installations with the bush kit.

Approximately 8" wide including the mounting brackets, 5.5" tall including
the connectors, and 3.375" deep.

|
Bad idea because of the large connector you'd have to pass through the
firewall requiring a large hole. Also, it is specifically designed for fwf
installation.

IIRC they are about $175 and I have one you could borrow, I'm in your local
chapter.

Be sure and order it WITHOUT the CHT sensor circuit that is required for
certified installations -- you don't need it and don't want it because the
sensor connection is known to be flakey trip the system into backup mode.
Contact me directly if you need more info or want to come over and see an
actual installation.

Thanks Randy
That's a great start. Helps me select the location for the controller unit.
Plus the contact for Steve Carter. I went to the Unison site but couldn't
find tech info.
I will contact you off line about the CHT issues. Looking forward to that
RV3 flying soon.

the only time you want to have access to the box (better the connector
|
on the lower left edge) is, when you want to know why exactly the red
light is on. A serial cable to your computer gives you a diagnostic
screen with some engine parameters and error code.
I'm able to access the plug trough the oil access door.
