To connect the leads from either voltage power supply, you should first
make sure the power supply is unplugged. Most power supplies have two
leads. Each lead has six wires, two of which are black.

Orientate the connectors so the black wires are in the middle of
the 5V power supply.

Caution: Some power supplies also include "3V" connectors. The
connection wires normally have two colors with 3 black wires on
one side. Please be very careful. Don't to use the wrong connec-
