activation through slide switch position #3 is only available when the power switch is in the ON position.

Backlighting

Backlighting for the six push buttons may be controlled in one of  two manners: In the default
(as shipped) mode, terminal number 12 of the barrier strip controls the backlighting. Depending on the
customers preference terminal 12 may be connected to the vehicles dash light circuit or to an ignition on 
accessory connection.

For vehicles utilizing a battery disconnect switch an internal jumper may be moved, allowing the backlight-
ing to be controlled by power applied to the number 10 AWG input wires, saving an additional connection.
