MS doesnt have a scope BUILT IN to show your input and output wave patterns?

The trigger log and the beta version on MLV will show what the MS "sees" at the CPU---That's not whats coming off the VR sensor( it goes through a VR zero crossing detector first)

IIRC what the video shows is raw signal off a VR sensor...

I would never ~100% trust any piece of equipment to tell me it was doing the right thing...
Addendum to Newtons first law:
zero vehicles on jackstands, square gets a fresh 090 and 1911, cabby gets a blower.
EZ3.6 Vanagon after that.(mounted, needs everything finished) then Creamsicle.

Yes this is raw from the VR sensor

I don't understand? You don't trust a scope?

You misunderstand, I would only 100% trust an external piece of test equipment vs a datalog from internal diags. (response was to SUBuggys question)

Hey Mario, I moved the missing tooth on my pulley to match the diagram in your email, came out pretty nice, can't tell I welded on it.

Plan to have it running on crank fire before the weekend, wish me luck.

Yup, got the burned finger tip to prove it!

Still going to replace that pulley down the road. Have any trigger wheels left over you can sell?

Of course I have more. I'm about ready for my third run. I may narrow the teeth a mm or 2 also. Just to make sure timing at low RPM stays consistent.
