Re: connecting pressure switch
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]
