Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0831224A2] The arrangement has a transducer plate (11) driven by the crankshaft (10) with a number of identical angle marks (12) and at least one reference mark (13,14) associated with a fixed crankshaft angle, a transducer plate (15) driven by the camshaft (16) with a number of identical segment angle marks (17) dependent on the number Z of cylinders and angle marks detectors (20,21) which pass corresp. signals to the engine controller. The number of reference markers on the plate driven by the crankshaft is Z/2 or Z and the camshaft-driven plate has Z-1 additional synchronization angle markers associated with the segment angle markers at different angular separations. One segment marker has no synchronization angle marker.
