The main loop in the `speeduino.ino` file runs continually and has 2 primary functions, determining the engine requirements and setting the ignition/injection schedules according to these requirements.
A high level description of the functions performed in the main loop is below:
- Check whether there is a request in the serial buffer to be processed
- See whether the engine is turning by looking at the last time a crank tooth was seen
- Read values from all analog sensors (TPS, IAT, CLT, MAP, O2, Battery voltage). Not all sensors are read every loop as they do not change frequently enough to warrant this
- The following functions only occur if the engine has 'sync':
- Check whether the RPM is above or below the cranking threshold (Both fuel and ignition values are adjusted when the engine is cranking)
- Run all corrections functions (See corrections.ino section below). The outcome of this is a % that the pulsewidth will be adjusted by (100% = no adjustment, 110% = 10% more fuel, 90% = 10% less fuel)
- Lookup VE from the the main fuel table
- Convert VE into a pulsewidth value in uS
- Lookup the desired advance from the ignition table
- Calculate the current crank angle
- Calculate the crank angle that each injector should open at based on the current engine speed
- Calculate the dwell angle based on the desired dwell time and current engine speed
- Calculate the ignition start angle for each cylinder by subtracting the advance angle and the dwell angle from the TDC angle
- Set a 'schedule' for each injector by converting the above calculated start angles into a number of uS in the future (Eg if injector should start opening at 45\* ATDC and the crank angle is currently 10\*BTDC, how long will it take to travel those 55\*)
