I have a Rotax 914 and I'm using toggle switches for each mag, and want to make sure I'm wiring them correctly.

So far I have a shielded wire plugged into each pin at the mag, and the shielding grounded there.

I'm not sure what to do on the switch end.

I have a simple toggle switch with 2 posts. (if that's the right switch to use)



I found this article but it's way over my head and I'm not sure if it's notes about impulse coupling applies. (The Rotax manual seems to indicate that it has variable ignition)
