Offhand, I would guess that Kick is just a subset of TRON. I think at one time
I had a TRON control panel hooked up to my Kick cabinet. You have to spin the
encoder so fast to move it was nearly impossible to play. In fact now that I
think about it, I think the interface board was the same for each.
