Engine Ignition Analyzer

The GTC505 is capable of displaying and measuring the following in real time: secondary ignition waveform, primary coil current ramp time, dwell time, spark burn time and RPM. It also provides two innovative and unique display formats used to compare measurements between cylinders, and to look at data for hundreds of spark events over time in order to detect intermittent problems, misfires and other performance issues which are very difficult to detect using conventional scopes.
This hand held device is powered by a rechargeable lithium battery, which provides up to 8 hours of battery life and uses a fast response 3.5″ color TFT display with a bright back light and wide viewing angle.

Features

Display waveforms in real time
Detect and display dwell angle (in high voltage sparkplug-wire systems), and ramp time (for COP systems)
Graph burn time, spark plug voltage, dwell/ramp time, and RPM for each spark, allowing for detection of misfires
Compare readings between cylinders with a “candlestick” graph that displays maximum, minimum, and average readings for each cylinder
Display everything on a 3.5″ color TFT LCD screen
Rechargeable Li-Ion battery provide 6+ hours of working time
Pass the rigorous “MIL-STD-810″ drop test
Useful for troubleshooting:
Non-starts
Misfires
Intermittent problems
Primary and secondary coil circuits faults
Fouled or damaged spark plugs
Damaged spark plug wires
Quick powerful and easy to use
Plug the appropiate sensor pick-up into the flexible probe
Select the number of cycles of the engine to be measured
Select the measurement type and display format
Place the pick-up on top of the ignition module, or over the spark plug wire
The GTC505 will automatically detect and adjust all parameters to provide accurate measurements and clear graphs
