of a vehicle. (Refer to

RF Decks and Control Heads are equipped with an Ignition terminal.
Behaviors of Each Ignition Terminal

Control Head Side
Connect a Control Head to the IGN terminal of a vehicle via KCT-72 (pin number: Pin 1) connected to the Control Head.
The ignition switch is enabled only on one of the Control Heads, therefore, the ignition switch can be easily connected
compared to if the ignition switch is connected to an RF Deck.
