Take a PWM cable. Connect the black wire to one terminal, and the white wire to the other (you don't need the red wire). Plug the other end of the PWM cable into a DIO port on digital side car.
EDIT: Anthony beat me to it.

Use a PWM wire, remove the male end of the PWM and attach the black wire to one screw and the white wire to another screw, leaving the red wire unused. Then plug the female end of the PWM into the Digital Output 1 (DIO).

It provides feedback for when a cylinder is activated. You don't need to have that.
