Instruction of Adjustment for Tacho System

Adjustment of Encoder-A (Aft side) for Signal “MMA”

1. Turning the crank shaft to set NO.1 cylinder top within ±0.05 deg.

2. Loose the fix screw on a clamp ring for Encoder-A.

3. Turn Encoder-A by a bar in order to adjust the position correctly. See the Fig.1.
(1) In case of LED of TSA-A turn off
Turn Encoder-A to Ahead direction until LED of TSA-A turns on. Then, turn Encoder-A a little
bit to Ahead and Astern direction several times in order to find where LED just turns on.
After that, tighten the fix screw in order to fix a clamp ring.
(2) In case of LED of TSA-A turn on
Turn Encoder-A to Astern direction until LED of TSA-A turns off. Then, turn Encoder-A a little
bit to Ahead and Astern direction several times in order to find where LED just turns on.
After that, tighten the fix screw in order to fix a clamp ring.

4. Turn the crank shaft to 358.0deg to make LED on TSA-A turn off. Then, turn the crank shaft to Ahead
direction. When the LED on TSA-A starts lighting within 0±0.05deg, the encoder for TSA-A has
correctly been adjusted. If the LED on TSA-A starts lighting over 0±0.05deg , the encoder is to be
adjusted again.

Adjustment of Encoder-B (Fore side) for signals “MMB & MSB”

1. Turning the crank shaft to set 45 ± 0.05 deg after NO.1 cylinder top.

2. Loose the fix screw on a clamp ring for Encoder-B.

3. Turn Encoder-B by a bar in order to adjust the position correctly. See the Fig.1.
(1) In case of LED of TSA-B turn off
Turn Encoder-B to Ahead direction until LED of TSA-B turns on. Then, turn Encoder-B a little
bit to Ahead and Astern direction several times in order to find where LED just turns on.
After that, tighten the fix screw in order to fix a clamp ring.
(2) In case of LED of TSA-B turn on
Turn Encoder-B to Astern direction until LED of TSA-B turns off. Then, turn Encoder-B a little
bit to Ahead and Astern direction several times in order to find where LED just turns on.
After that, tighten the fix screw in order to fix a clamp ring.

4. Turn the crank shaft to 43.0deg to make LED on TSA-B turn off. Then, turn the crank shaft to Ahead
direction. When the LED on TSA-B starts lighting within 45±0.05deg, the encoder for TSA-B has
correctly been adjusted. If the LED on TSA-B starts lighting over 45±0.05deg , the encoder is to be
adjusted again.

Adjustment of Pick-up sensor for Signal “MSA”

1. The target of pick-up is located between 90 deg and 270 deg after NO.1 cylinder TDC on fly-wheel.
Confirm the gap which is between the pick-up and the target is between 1.5 and 2.0mm.

2. Confirm that Ch.41 of ECU-A on MOP shows “True”, while the crank shaft is turned from 90 ± 0.05
deg to 270 ± 0.05 deg.

Confirmation of crank angle

In case the adjustment for Tacho signals is carried out, the engine should be turn more than 3 rotation.
Please check the each Tacho signals are correctly given as per MOP suggestion of Tacho Function Test.
