HI Guys
I am looking for a way to monitor if a stationary engine (i.e Lister water pump) is running or not. These engines have no electrical except the coil to provide spark with an on/off button to interrupt the coil. I have a gsm commander that can measure voltage input or open/close state and send sms regarding the programming of said input.
I have thought about a magnet running on the fly wheel triggering a reed switch or infra red
Please assist with a circuit that will help me solve the problem
Thank you
