Default MSD wiring

Hi!
I have a MSD 6AL connected to a MSD Boost Timing Master.

With the 6AL I can have a theft detterent by connecting the white wire to the ground, but with the BTM the white wire is connected to the orange one from the BTM....
Is there another way to disconnect the ignition to have a theft security ?
Is it the good way to connect the violet (from the 6AL) to the ground ?
Thanks
David

From the MSD site

THEFT DETERRENT
The MSD provides the opportunity to easily install a theft deterrent kill switch (Figure 4).
White Wire Trigger
When using the WHITE wire to trigger the MSD, install a switch across the magnetic pickup
VIOLET wire to ground. When the VIOLET wire is grounded, the vehicle will crank but not
start.

Magnetic Pickup Trigger
When using the mag pickup to trigger the MSD, install a switch to the WHITE wire and the
other side to ground. When the WHITE wire is grounded, the vehicle will crank but will not
start.

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.
