    G540 Motor wiring question

    I'm in the final stages of my first build. I have a G540 and 2 sets of motors. The motor set I want to use are KL23H286-20-8B's, which have 8 wires. The other smaller set of motors have 4 wires. I'm following the Homann Designs schematic: http://www.homanndesigns.com/pdfs/EN010_V8.pdf which is easy to follow with a 4 wire motor.

    I'm not well versed on series vs. parallel. But, I have found most KL23H286-20-8B's are wired: (Green + black) (Green & white + black & white) (Blue + red) (Blue & white + red & white).

    My question is: For a G540, what 4 pins on a DB9 do these go to?

    Green + black =...........................................pin# ?
    Green & white + black & white =.....................pin# ?
    Blue + red =................................................p in# ?
    Blue & white + red & white =..........................pin# ?

    Thanks in advance

    Well...I seem to have found the answer:

    Green + black =...........................................pin# 7
    Green & white + black & white =.....................pin# 6
    Blue + red =................................................p in# 8
    Blue & white + red & white =..........................pin# 9
