Exclamation Bunch o' questions about the new electronics layout
OK...our wiress is at work, and we need some help

questions:
1: 12-vold dedicated? what is that/where does it plug into the power distribution unit? we know the gaming adapter needs it...

2: 12-volt connectors for the I/O sidecars, do they plug into the similar looking plug on the power distributor, or do they plug into the wago ports?
we think they plug into a 30 amp breaker, but were not sure, since our data sheets dont specify.

3: WHAT IS WITH THE PWM CABLES THAT THEY GIVE YOU?
we cannot figure out how to take off the little plastic cover protecting the male end of the wire.
any strategies that dont include destroying the male end of the wire?

4: thats it...i thought there was more

thanks in advance,
~the two guys staying late after a meeting to finish this job
