Enhanced Engine Controller PID [obsolete]

THIS CONTROLLER IS OBSOLETE, PLEASE USE MY ENHANCED ENGINE CONTROLLER !

Control your Diesel engine with a PID stabilized microcontroller. Now with intelligent clutch control to drive with low speeds!
With this controller you can
- Start your engine (the starter signal is active for a specific time and the idle throttle will be applied)
- The controller prevent the engine to stop when the throttle is too low (below idle value), To stop your engine, you have to turn off the ignition
- The engine tries to keep the speed, set by the throttle
- The clutch automatically engange (partial for lower speeds, fully for higher speeds)

Inputs:
- Connect your throttle to the set input [rounds or speed] of the controller. Remember to change the property to the correct unit.
- Hook your ignition toggle button to the controller to activate it
- If you want to control your engine by setting the ships speed connect the controller to a speed senso, if you want to control the engine rounds connect the controller to a torque meter atached behind the clutch (and gearbox)

Outputs:
- Connect the engine throttle output to your engine.
- Link the engine starter to the starter of your engine to start it when the ignition button is enabled.
- Add the Clutch to the corresponding output.

User Properties:
- Idle throttle [%] sets the minimum throttle. As long as the ignition is on, the engine can't fall below this value.
- Speed/Rounds unit: set the correct input unit
- Clutch sensitivity. Higher values soften the clutch
- Starter Duration. Set the time the starter should run.
