Brown is specifically BATTERY power, and blue is common. They should be spliced to #18 wire and inserted into a red/black pair of Wago connectors on the Power Distribution board with a 20A circuit breaker feeding the circuit.

If you're concerned about brownouts, another option is to power them from an output on a Solenoid Breakout connected to 24 volts.

Which pin 1, 2, or 3, of the Digitat I/O should the white signal wire be connected to?
The signal wire connects to the SIGNAL pin on a DIO connector.
