Contact the manufacturer... Shakmat (assuming you mean the Four Bricks Rook). They will gladly help you.

Don't take anyone else's advice unless you're willing to blow up your module.

Plugging things in backwards can cause some serious.

The typical (but not always) convention is to mark where the red stripe on the cable should align to. But different manufacturers use different symbols or may even include proper shrouding to force the cable the right way around.

It is POSSIBLE, that the orientation of the cable doesn't matter if the electronics are designed a specific way. I've had some stuff custom built that are agnostic to orientation. But never assume... contact the manufacturer.


that's what I did. Here is the answer for our grandchildren if they will use google

"It s eed stripe down :)and it is reversed power portected."


Good to know that they spent a couple extra bucks to reverse power protect it. I wish all manufacturers did that considering that modules are often hundreds of dollars each.
