The light board connects to the second tiny ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) socket - opposite the ZIF socket for the Hall Sensor, which is an integral part of a FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) ribbon cable. It's a very neat and lightweight solution... except Slot.it haven't produced the ribbon cable to connect to their light boards yet. Maurizio's 'To-Do' list must be exceedingly long.

In the meantime, the couple of teams using the C chip at the oXigen Le Mans race last year were connecting light boards (Slot.it or Z-Machine) to the power wires from the pick-ups. That can be done by cutting away some insulation from the wire (away from the chip) and looping a connecting wire. Or by soldering to the power-in terminal on the chip. For neatness, I'd go for the first option. Not using the socket does mean you lose the brake light function.
