Default tach wiring help!

alright guys I just put a tach on my softail that I found in my dads shop. I mounted it in place of where the horn goes, but my question is what wires do I connect to it? I have a twin fire coil, but I cant figure out which is the signal wire.... little help! attached is a picture of it, you can kinda see it.....

thanks,

Barnabie

Mine was pretty simple. Red wire to "ignition on", black to ground, green to positive of the coil.
