We are connecting pins 1, 2, and 3 to +5v. Pins 6 and 9 are wired together and are connected to ground. Pin 4 is connected to the white pwm wire.

And yes, we are following those instructions.

Basically, we point the compass north, connect and disconnect pin 6 (calibrate) to ground (pin 9, 0v). Then we repeat for the other three directions.
