65 Barracuda Formula S Tachometer Wiring?

Hello all,
I just picked up a 65 Formula S tachometer.
How do these things work?
Do they need an external triggering device, or does the negative side of the coil hook directly up to the tach for input?
I see that there are electronic upgrades for the tach 63- 66 Tach Sender Upgrade Board Points/ Electronic Ignition - Premium Dash Decals by Mr.Heaterbox
Thanks in advance
