ALTRONIC CD1 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

SMALL ENGINES, 1-8 CYLINDERS FORM CD1 II 8-93

WARNING: DEVIATION FROM THESE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS MAY LEAD TO IMPROPER

ENGINE OPERATION WHICH COULD CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY TO OPERATORS OR OTHER
NEARBY PERSONNEL.

1.0 DESCRIPTION

1.1 The Altronic CD1 ignition system consists of these basic components:
1. CD1 Unit
2. Magnetic Pick-up Sensor
3. Harness
4. Multi-tower Coil Module or Individual Coils (one per cylinder)
1.2 The system requires a battery or a suitable power supply with a nominal 12 VDC or 24 VDC (see drawing
709 150). The CD1 unit steps up the DC supply voltage to charge an energy storage capacitor and contains
microcircuit logic and SCR switching devices to release the stored energy to the ignition coils in programmed,
timed sequence according to the application. Holes drilled in the engine flywheel (or other disc running at either
camshaft or engine speed) signal the position of the engine crankshaft to the logic circuitry in the CD1 unit.
One additional hole trails 20-30 degrees after the last cylinder hole; the unit recognizes this as the index signal
that another revolution has started.
1.3 The CD1 system can operate as a single-firing or double-firing (firing on exhaust stroke) system.

2.0 CD1 UNIT

2.1 Select a location for the CD1 unit that will be at least 24 inches (600 mm) away from the ignition coils and spark
plug leads. In addition, the mounting location must be relatively cool, preferably one benefiting from the engine
fan stream (if any); the outside case temperature of the CD1 unit should not exceed 195° F. (90° C.) in operation.
NOTE: Plastic-case CD1 units have a maximum case temperature of 150° F. (65° C.).
2.2 Secure the CD 1 unit to a suitable mounting bracket with four 1/4 inch (6 mm) screws.

3.0 PICK-UP SENSOR- FLYWHEEL HOLES (UNITS 791 010-3, 791 010-4)
3.1 Locate a suitable mounting position for the pick-up sensor so that it may sense either the outside diameter
(preferable) or the side face of the engine's flywheel (acceptable).
IMPORTANT: Rotate the flywheel an entire revolution to be sure that there are no holes or interruptions of ANY
kind in the path that will pass under the pick-up.
3.2 Set the engine with no. 1 cylinder in the most advanced timing position. Mark the point on the flywheel that will
be directly opposite the pick-up. A 3/8" (1 0 mm) diameter hole must be drilled at this point- see drawing 709 151.
3.3 Drill the remaining holes spaced as shown in the appropriate wiring diagram in these instructions and noting
the direction of rotation of the flywheel. Referencing the first drilled hole as 0 degrees, the pattern required is:
- 1' 2 or 4 cylinder engine: 0° - 180° - 21 0°*
- 3 or 6 cylinder engine: oo- 120°-240° -260°* *Indicates index hole.
- 8 cylinder engine: oo - goo - 180° - 270° - 290°*
NOTE: The angular spacing is extremely important as this establishes the basic timing accuracy of the system.
In addition, make sure each hole is drilled so that its center passes directly in line with the center of the
pick-up.
3.4 Secure the pick-up sensor to a rigid bracket or surface to maintain an air gap not exceeding .030" ± .01 0" (0. 75
mm ± 0.25 mm). The center of the pick-up face must line up with the center of the drilled holes as the engine
is rotated. Refer to drawing 709 151.
3.5 Plug the 2-pin pick-up connector fully into its mating receptacle connected to the CD1 unit.
NOTE: Keep the pick-up sensor wires at least 2 inches (50 mm) away from the coil primary wires and at least
8 inches (200 mm) away from the spark plug leads.

4.0 PICK-UP SENSOR- CAMSHAFT DISC (UNIT 791 010-6)

4.1 A disc with the appropriate hole pattern must be prepared for mounting at CAMSHAFT speed. The disc must
be of magnetic material and 4.0" (1 00 mm) diameter or larger. Drawing 709 198 details the hole spacing
depending on the number of engine cylinders. Note the direction of rotation of the disc. The angular spacing
is extremely important as this establishes the basic timing accuracy of the system.
4.2 Locate a suitable mounting position for the pick-up sensor in order to sense the holes in the rotating disc. Secure
the pick-up to a rigid bracket or surface. Pick-up sensor dimensions are shown on drawing 709 151.
4.3 Set the engine with no. 1 cylinder in the most advanced timing position. Noting the direction of rotation, set the
drilled disc opposite the pick-up in the position shown in drawing 709 198.
4.4 Adjust the tightening nut holding the pick-up sensor to maintain an air gap not exceeding .020" ± .005" (0.50
mm ± 0.12 mm). The center of the pick-up face must line up with the center of each drilled hole as the disc
rotates - refer to drawing 709 198.
4.5 Plug the 2-pin pick-up connector fully into its mating receptacle connected to the CD1 unit.
NOTE: Keep the pick-up sensor wires at least 2 inches (50 mm) away from the coil primary wires and at least
8 inches (200 mm) away from the spark plug leads.

5.0 IGNITION COILS

5.1 Special multi-tower coils have been developed for the CD1 double-firing system:
- 791 020 4-tower coil NOTE: The multi-tower coils MUST be used with resistor spark plugs
- 791 030 6-tower coil and/or resistance spark plug wires.
Individual coils may also be used for each cylinder (see wiring diagrams):
- 591 040 coil, plastic case
- 501 061 coil, blue epoxy
- 591 010 coil, red epoxy
5.2 Mount the ignition coils as close to the spark plugs as possible keeping the high-tension lead length to a minimum
but also keeping temperatures below 200° F. (95° C.) during operation.

6.0 PRIMARY WIRING

6.1 The CD1 system requires a battery or other DC power source providing 12-28 VDC for running and a minimum
of 8 volts for engine starting. Refer to drawing 709 150 for details of the connection to the DC power source.
6.2 Drawings are provided for 2, 3, 4, 6 and a-cylinder hook-ups. For 1-cylinder hook-up, refer to the 2-cylinder
diagram and use only the coil connected to lead "A".

7.0 SHUTDOWN WIRING

7.1 The CD1 system can be shut-off in two ways:
A. OPTION 1 - lnterruptthe DC power to the unit; use a switch or relay with contacts rated 24 VDC, 10 amps-
refer to drawing 709 150. DO NOT run the input power line through a series of normally closed switches.
B. OPTION 2 (UNITS 791 010-4 AND 791 01 0-6) - Ground the appropriate harness lead (see wiring
diagrams). This option may be used if the shutdown panel (1) was powered from an Altronic I, Ill or V
ignition system and (2) utilizes Altronic instruments if electronic instrumentation is used. When the
shutdown lead is grounded, the CD1 unit will draw about 0.1 amp from the power source. NOTE: If desired,
the shutdown lead may be used to power Altronic display instruments in the panel and OPTION 1 used to
shut-off the ignition.
NOTE: CD1 unit 791 010-3 does not have a shutdown lead and can be shut-off only using OPTION 1. Unit
791 010-4 can be substituted for 791 010-3 in any application if the use of OPTION 2 is desired.

8.0 SECONDARY WIRING

8.1 If using INDIVIDUAL COILS, the spark plug leads should be fabricated from 7 mm, silicone insulated, tinned
copper conductor with suitable terminals and silicone spark plug boot.
8.2 If using MULTI-TOWER COILS, the spark plug leads should be fabricated from 7 mm, silicone insulated,
automotive resistance cable with suitable terminals and silicone spark plug boot. The finished lead should have
a resistance of at least 5,000 ohms.
8.3 Keep spark plug leads as short as possible and at least 2 inches (50 mm) away from any grounded engine part.
In deep spark plug wells, use rigid, insulated extenders projecting out of the well.
8.4 The use of a clear, silicone grease (such as Dow Corning DC-4, G.E. G-623 or GC Electronics Z5) is
recommended for all high-tension connections and boots. This material helps seal out moisture and prevent
corrosion from atmospheric sources.

9.0 OPERATION
9.1 The CD1 unit steps up the DC supply voltage to charge an energy storage capacitor. SCR switching devices
release this stored energy in response to signals from the unit's logic circuitry which processes signals from the
magnetic pick-up. The pick-up senses one hole for every firing of the engine; each firing occurs a programmed
number of degrees after the hole is sensed. This delay in degrees is adjustable - see section 9.2. There is one
additional index hole 20-30 engine degrees after the last cylinder hole to indicate that another revolution has
started.
9.2 The CD1 unit has a timing switch located under a white plastic cap at one end of the box. The timing range
available is:
1, 2 or 4 cylinder engine: 2.8 degrees per switch interval 20 degrees total
- 3 or 6 cylinder engine: 1.9 degrees per switch interval 13 degrees total
- 8 cylinder engine: 1.4 degrees per switch interval 10 degrees total
Switch position 7 gives the most advanced timing. The timing retards as indicated above for each switch position
as the switch is moved to position 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0. Switch position 0 is full retard.
CAUTION: DO NOT switch from position 7 to 0, or 0 to 7 while the engine is running. The large timing change
may cause the engine to shutdown or be damaged.
NOTE: Using a timing light, set the timing to the desired position with the engine running at NORMAL
OPERATING SPEED. Replace the white cap over the timing switches once the proper timing setting
is set.
9.3 Two LED indicators on either side of the timing switch give an indication of proper operation of the magnetic
pick-up (left LED) and the output circuits of the CD1 unit (right LED). See Section 10.0 for troubleshooting
procedures.
