Strip a few millimeters of the six colored wires and solder them to
the female DB015 connector. The solder cups are numbered from
left to right: 1 … 8. You use only the top row, the bottom row has
only 7 cups. From left (1) to right (6) the wire colors are black, red,
green, blue, yellow and white.
Shift the six 1.6 mm diameter heat-shrink tubes over the wires and
the solder cups. The picture shows white tubes, but the color can
vary.
Apply heat to shrink the heat-shrink. The fumes from the heat-
shrink are not healthy, so do this in the open air. An electrical paint
stripper is an ideal heat source, but a cigarette lighter or even a
match could be used as alternative.
Shift the one 6.4 mm diameter heat-shrink tube over the six wires.
Bend the wires to form a bundle centered behind the connector.
Shrink this tube too.
Fasten the strain relief at the appropriate place over the wire
bundle.
