5. Ignition Sense Cable (KCT-18)
The KCT-18 is an optional cable to use the following func-
tions:
5-1. Ignition function
The ignition function allows you to turn the transceiver’s
power on and off with the ignition key of your car. When
you are driving with the ignition key on, the horn alert func-
tion is disabled.
5-2. Timed power off function
The timed power off function turns the transceiver’s
power off the time specified with the programming soft-
ware (KPG-44D) after the ignition key is turned off. When
you are driving with the ignition key on, the horn alert func-
tion is disabled.
The ignition sense function and the timed power off func-
tion can be used at the same time.
5-3. Modification
• If the TK-690H(B) and KCH-10 or KCH-11 are used
1. Remove the short plug from the accessory connector (9
pins) on the back of the transceiver.
2. Insert the KCT-18 into pin 1 (IGN).
3. Remove the upper half of the case of the TK-690H(B).
4. Set jumper resistors (0 ohm), R504, R506, R742 and
R743, on the control unit (X57-560 B/2) as shown in
Table 1 (Refer to page 21).
5. Reinstall the upper half of the case.
• When the remote kit is used
If the accessory connector (9 pins) on the rear of the
transceiver is available, use the method described above. (If
the KRK-7DB or KRK-8DBH is used, use the accessory con-
nector (9 pins) on the back of radio 1.)
If the accessory connector (12 pins) on the back of the
control head is used:
1. Remove the plug from the accessory connector (12 pins)
on the back of the control head.
2. Cut off the end of the rubber cap (accessory), insert the
KCT-18 into the cap, and insert it into pin 1 (IGN) of the
short plug.
3. Install the short plug and rubber cap on the connector on
the rear of the control head, then clamp the bottom of the
rubber cap with the supplied tie wrap.
4. Remove the upper half of the case of the TK-690H(B).
5. Set jumper resistors (0 ohm), R504, R506, R742 and
R743, on the control unit (X57-560 B/2) as shown in
Table 1 (Refer to page 21).
6. Reinstall the upper half of the case.
Note :
If the KCT-18 is used for the KRK-8DBH, use the 9-pin
plug on the back of radio 1 or the 12-pin plug on the back of
head 1. The plugs on radio 2 and head 2 cannot be used.
If the KCT-18 is used for the KRK-7DB, use the 9-pin plug on
the back of radio 1 or the 12-pin plug on the back of the
head. The plug on radio 2 cannot be used.

6. External Speaker (KES-4)
The speaker output from the TK-690H(B) is as follows:
1. The KCH-10 has a built-in speaker (3W/8 ohms).
2. The KCH-11 does not have a built-in speaker.
3. The external speaker output from the accessory connec-
tor (9 pins) on the back of the transceiver is 13W/4 ohms.
Use the KES-4.
4. The speaker output from the accessory connector (12
pins) on the back of the control head is 2W/4 ohms. If the
remote kit (KRK-5, KRK-6DH, KRK-7DB or KRK-8DBH) is
used, use the KSP-1A or KES-4. If the KSP-1A is used, do
not attempt to modify the transceiver to increase the au-
dio output.
Note :
Since the TK-690H(B) uses a BTL audio amplifier, do
not ground the speaker output pin.
