I have noticed the mouse DIN connector I used fits loosely... What is the adapter mentioned above, and where do I get this?

Also to note...

I am wondering why there are 2 +12v inputs to the XMD1000. After making the mistake of assuming both were connected on the radios circuit board, I took the circuit board out and they are connected to a missing connector labeled "Signal". My mouse connector I used was missing one of the pins (forgot if it was 6 or 7), so I soldered the 2 +12v circuits together at the "Signal" connector. After that I was up and running.

I am thinking one is on constant, and the other would be on at ignition on/ Power on.

If anyone knows the nitty gritty on the 2 +12 volt circuits, please enlighten.
