I just got these Nikkei Apia battle counters in (pics attached)...I have a few questions:

1) The yellow and red wires are power wires, right? Do I need to cut the plug off and strip the wire ends to that I can tie them in to the 24V side of the transformer wiring?

2) For the connections to the machine, I have the maps, but I just unplug those extra tails off the connector, then attach the connectors to the right ports on the machine, right?

I don't want to start cutting wires until I know 100%.
