Just hook the black (gnd) wire to one screw and the white (signal) wire to the other. You should crimp ring connectors on the end of the wires for a good connection. The red (+5v) wire is unused.

In the future you should post a Technical question like this in one of the Technical Disscusion forums (Electrical or pnuematics).

[EDIT] If you are using the default program you need to connect the 3 pin connector to digital in #18 on the Robot Controller [/EDIT]

Alright, I've read that answer 15 times and I'm still not getting it. What wire should I use, a PWM? Do we hook it directly to port 18, so that we would use no spike inbetween?
