Thats quite interesting 
i wired mine up saterday to the correct pin and it reads half
but have been told this is normal for cars with coilpacks as it wasn't designed to run with them,
but a freind of mine got motorsport wiring solutions to wire his in for him and they got his 1 reading correctly (full revs) too
any more info peeps?
pm - ELECTRONIC off here as he designed the secs monitor

I want to know this as well 
, my guess would be that its getting a signal from the phase sensor that although turns half engine speed, sends 2 signals per revolution hence the secs reads correct, as you say the question is will this damage the secs monitor or the phase sensorin any way?

I am here. Never been in this room before 
Pin 23, dont use that it will kill the monitor eventually or make your car run badly.
OK,
I have done a software update for the monitor to make coilpack conversion work.
The problem is the chips can only be bought in large quantitys (50+ )
and are on a 20 week delivery from the states.
I ordered some before xmas so it shouldnt be much longer.
Upgrades will be Ł10 from the new secs distributor to be anounced soon.
