- No battery required
- Working with both high and low-voltage coils
- Adjustable pick-up phase
- Adjustable engine startup parameters
- Supports single-coiled throttles
- Internal power regulator
- Internal step-up for capacitive discharger
- Power-Jet signal output
- Supports gas sensor (K-trick)
- Can be programmed via RS232 and PC (graphic software for Win 95/98/NT/ME/2000/XP)
- Hardware upgradable for electronic gear
- Hardware upgradable for data acquisition
- Hardware upgradable for anti-detonation sensor
- Hardware upgradable for heat sensor on exhaust gases
- 8 phase curves automatically selected by gas sensor
- 8 Power-jet thresholds automatically selected by gas sensor
- Customizable curve thresholds
- All the described parameters can be stored in three different memory locations. In this way, the same CDI unit can be used for three different engines: no need to reconfigure!
- The internal CDI firmware is stored in a flash memory and can be upgraded for new engines.
- The control software (running under Microsoft Windows) allows to easily configure all CDI parameters (Demo version available on this website
Main characteristics of Professional Kit, level 1:
The professional kit is provided with the same features as the DEMO version, plus:
- The system is customized by electronic digital signature, so that only the proprietary team can access the internal data.
- The PC software is customized with the team logo.
- The system can be re-programmed while the engine is on.
- The special feature "Banco Dinamico" allows to change the parameters of the CDI in real time, while the user is changing them on screen.
Main Characteristics of Professional Kit, level 2:
The professional kit Level 2 is provided with the same features as LEVEL 1, plus:
- The special feature "Banco Statico" acquires the engine parameters in real time, positioning the cursor on the exact point of the curve, thus enabling direct parameter adjusting.
CDI Management Software vers. 1.0:
This management software runs under Windows 95/98/NT and allows the total management and programming of the CDI.

The program can manage as many as 8 different curves, selectable on request. Three operational modes are available:
- Single curve (the 8 curves shown are identical);
- 8 Curves (each of the 8 curves can be configured separately);
- 1-8 Interpolated curves (when the first and last curve have been set, the software automatically interpolates the other curves).
- The curve selection depends on the gas throttle position (k-trick). A software function ("Interpola K-Trick") helps you during this operation. Curves can be copied easily thanks to the special function "Copia Curve". Comments can be added by filling in the tables in the window called "Informazioni" (all of this is memorised into the CDI). The curves can be saved on a diskette, or printed whenever required.
