Acoustic Tachometer
Description (

)
Measure the RPM of an engine by analyzing the sound it makes. Engine RPM listens to the sound of a running engine and uses advanced signal processing algorithms to extract the frequency of that sound and calculate the RPM. This app is primarily for setup and diagnostics of engines. After setting the the number of cylinders and whether the engine is a 2-stroke or 4-stroke engine, the app can work with any internal combustion engine, from diesel tractors to aircraft engines to motorcycles to chainsaws. To use the app you must set an expected RPM range to guide the analysis algorithms to the correct RPM. A real-time graph of the autocorrelation graph is displayed to help in troubleshooting and adjusting the expected RPM range. The analysis requires a clear sound from the engine without excessive interference from extraneous sounds. Do not expect to read the RPM of an engine while other things are making too much noise at the same time. The analysis also requires that the RPM be stable. It cannot read the RPM of an engine that is rapidly accelerating. For this reason, and because of the need for adjusting the expected RPM range, this app should not be considered a drop-in replacement for an operational tachometer. Setup options include update periods from 93 milliseconds to 1.5 seconds, one to 12 cylinders, 2-stroke or 4-stroke, low-pass filtering, and signal clipping. The overall RPM range is 400 to 90,000 RPM (although at any one time, the operational range is typically +/- 30% around a nominal expected RPM). Precision is usually about +/- 10 RPM.}

Needed to monitor and adjust the idle on my motorcycle. Did not once register a live rpm reading. No matter what settings I adjust it still held the same 4 digit reading in red. I placed my phone even directly behind the exhaust and the number read the same even tho I raised and lowered the actual rpm. I had hoped from the review I read that this would be my savior but instead just a loss of money.

Only acoustic tachometer that works well. Although the UI is basic- it is easy to use.

Good app to troubleshoot, but after find the good parameter the app don’t have option to save parameter

Was a little concerned when noticing most reviews are very old. Pleased to report it worked very well when setting the speed of my old two stroke Lawn Boy mower. As the author and other purchasers have noted, works best with a constant engine speed and no background noise. Also verified my Ranger’s idle speed with it’s tachometer, spot on.

Was able to dial in my snowblower RPMs no problem. I do think the app should have the cycle/number of cylinders option right on the Home Screen, I think that would help out. Also, would be nice if it had good enough response times to react to transient surges, really it’s only useful for steady RPM values. But overall, did what I needed for much cheaper than a small engine tach.

The documentation explains exactly how this works, and what the limitations are. There are some big advantages too: low cost and no need to touch the engine. I used this to tune my old rototiller engine. It took some experimentation on where to position my phone near the engine, but I was able to get a strong signal and confirm max RPM and idle RPM.

* Optional Low-Pass Filtering to suppress high frequency interfering sounds. * Optional signal rectification to transform high frequency percussive bursts into low frequencies that were otherwise too low to be detected by the microphone. * Older unreliable modes of operation were removed (auto ranging and tracking) in favor of the more reliable Hint Band mode. * Built-in help is greatly expanded.
