WIRE FUNCTIONS
Power Leads
The 2 pin connector delivers battery voltage to the ignition:
Heavy Red
Connects directly to the battery positive (+)
terminal or to a positive battery
junction. It could also be connected to the
positive side of the starter solenoid. NOTE:
Never connect this wire to
the alternator.
Heavy Black Connects to frame or chassis ground.
The 6 pin connector should be wired as follows:
A - Red – 12V Ignition power
B - Brown - Tach signal
C - Black - Coil “-” Minus
D - Orange - Coil “+” Plus
E - Green - Mag P/U “-” Minus
F - Purple - Mag P/U “+” Plus
The 1 Pin Connector is a points input that can be used for
a kill switch. Grounding this lead will ground the magnetic
trigger input.
ROUTING WIRES
Route all wires away from heat sources, sharp edges, and
moving objects. Route the trigger wires separate from the
other wires and spark plug wires. If possible, route them
along a ground plane, such as the block or firewall, which
creates an electrical shield. The magnetic pickup wires
should be routed separately and twisted together to help
reduce extraneous interference.
WARNING: The CT PRO™ Ignition Control is a capacitive dis-
charge ignition. High voltage is present at the coil
primary terminals. Do not touch these terminals or connect
test equipment to them.

RPM Limiter Settings
The single stage CT PRO™ Rev Limiter is adjusted by
using the pair of switches on the right side on the end plate
labeled “RPM LIMIT”. The switch nearest the diagnostic
LED, the left hand switch of the pair, is used to adjust in
1,000 RPM Increments and the right hand switch is used to
adjust in 100 RPM increments. Example - If the left hand
switch of the pair is adjusted to the 7 and the right hand
switch of the pair is adjusted to the 5, the rev limiter is
adjusted to 7,500 RPM.
