To View Number of Engine Starts:
In hour meter mode (hour glass icon

Adjusting Spark/Pulse Input.
Electrical systems vary from Motorcycle to
Motorcycle. Your meter allows you to adjust the input from your electrical
system to get an acurate RPM Reading.
For example:
Most offroad motorcycles use the default (1P:1r) setting that
your meter comes with. Motorcycles with a Battery or lighting typically have
ignitions that send two pulses for every RPM (2P:1r).
To achieve an acurate reading you must select the appropriate input on
your meter.
See Instructions Below.
Changing Spark/Pulse Input:
While in Tach mode, press and hold button
until until “1P:1r” appears on the display. Release button if this is the
desired mode. Hold button to view more selections.
“1P:1r” indicates that the meter is set for 1 Pulse per 1 revolution.
“1P:2r” indicates that the meter is set for 1 Pulse per 2 revolution.
“2P:1r” indicates that the meter is set for 2 Pulse per 1 revolution.
If your RPM reading is double what it should be at idle you need to
select “2P:1r”
Refer to your owners manual for correct idle RPM.
No matter what Spark/Pulse Input you choose this will not affect the
hour meter time keeping function of you

This is where I'm confused. Not sure what to select:

Changing Spark/Pulse Input:

While in Tach mode, press and hold button until until “1P:1r” appears on the display. Release button if this is the desired mode. Hold button to view more selections.
“1P:1r” indicates that the meter is set for 1 Pulse per 1 revolution.
“1P:2r” indicates that the meter is set for 1 Pulse per 2 revolution.
“2P:1r” indicates that the meter is set for 2 Pulse per 1 revolution.

If your RPM reading is double what it should be at idle you need to select “2P:1r”

No it should 2P:1r.
Stock superjet is running "lost spark" ignition, meaning, that every plug fires 2 times pr 360 degree revolution (and it dosent matter how you put the plug wires on, it will still fire)
MSD TL is diffrent though (with 2 separate coils)
