    I'm not sure that I understand the basis of your question.

    The datasheet shows the bipolar series hookup in the middle diagram at the bottom of the page. The diagram shows which wires (by color) to hook up.

    What exactly is your question?

    Are you saying that the wires from the motor have color stripes instead of being all a single color?

    According to the diagram:

    1) Connect the Red wire to the Yellow wire. Apply electrical tape to insulate that connection.

    2) Connect the Blue wire to the A+ terminal.

    3) Connect the Green wire to the A- terminal.

    4) Connect the Black wire to the Orange wire. Apply electrical tape to insulate that connection.

    5) Connect the Brown wire to the B+ terminal.

    6) Connect the White wire to the B- terminal.

    If the wire colors do not match the solid colors shown in the diagram, then you will need to use a multimeter to verify the proper wire hookup.
