Hello...

You have to make one if you didn't buy the -4BR cable.

You will need pins 2 and 3 and 5 from the serial port on the PC and then just use the white connector for power (it uses a unmodified floppy power cable)

Farnell should be suppling me with a brighter tricolour LED tomorrow (and a few other bits!) so we'll see how it looks then
