The single ground wire is a bit of a mixed bag for me. It's working fine on the MTX-L, but the theory behind the divorced grounds on the discontinued LC-1 is technically better. The problem with the divorced grounds tends to be user error, which I assume is why they went away.

It's a bit smaller, and easier to mount due to integrated mounting tabs and the connector is relocated to the harness, instead of integral to the body. It's a better form factor.

Because MTX-L has a single ground wire, ground it to the power ground pin of the ECU. DO NOT ground it to the signal ground pin. This is true whether you are using the MTX-L's analog or digital output.
Also DO NOT shorten the MTX-L's wires if using the analog output. I suspect they are doing ground wire impedance compensation and shortening it will throw it off.

Q: What do I change from the normal hook-up to use the digital interface between WB sensor and MS?

#29, just confirms an LC-2 will work with Revs ECU, which it will, using the analogue outputs.

Not really, because I now have an external module that connects to the Zeitronix/LC-1/LC-2/MTX-L/LM-1/LM-2 through their serial port, grabs the data, and pushes it through CAN bus to the ECU.
I've been trying it on my car for over a month now. Works great!

Please forward the details to me, or post. I will proceed with purchase of LC-2, and will need to know how to connect into my MS3 (present loom is set up for the separated grounds of LC-1) either analog or digital. If an internal interface is also possible (for digital input) I have the ability to add it to the PWB if you tell me what and where.
OFF_TOPIC WARNING: Also need to know what to add to make my MS3 Basic 4 spark drives rather than the two now.
