knock in Megasquirt?

Hi, I just notice that on our car there is a unit for the knock sensor. So I was just wondering if I could use the output from this box to the pin for the knock sensor in MS? Thanks

Best option for knock sencing in ms.
Engine knock detection and indication for all vehicles
Use the factory sensor and amplify the signl. The problem is the accuracy and tuning the controller.
