Conneting ssc32 and botboarduino error

I follow the tutorial but in the calibration part shows the botboarduino and ssc32 board are not connected.

Actually I don’t understand the tutorial connecting parts.

lynxmotion.com/images/html/build99f.htm according to this tutorial

in figure.3 yellow red black line is installed Tx Rx Gr

and figure.4 red is in 12 and yellow in 13 and black is 13 in the right end i guess

then in the figure.2 one end of the cable doesn’t have red line but in the figure.4 and figure.3 is not. Is there something wrong? or my misunderstanding?

also from the schematic the red and yellow line position is different from the figure.3 what is right?

The BotBoarduino is connected to the SSC-32 using software serial (which frees up the main Tx and Rx lines).
arduino.cc/en/Reference/SoftwareSerial
In the software serial setup, which is:

SoftwareSerial SSCSerial(13, 12);

Pin 13 is the Rx pin and pin 12 is the Tx pin (on the BotBoarduino).

You connect the Rx pin on the BotBoarduino to the Tx pin on the SSC-32, and the Tx pin on the BotBoarduino to the Rx pin on the SSC-32, as well as GND to GND. You also need to ensure that the Baud rate you specify in the Arduino code corresponds with the baud rate you selected (via the two jumpers) on the SSC-32. In order to get a better understanding of two link between the two boards, we suggest operating just one servo.

what about black one? It doesn’t matter?

Common ground always - GND on the Arduino to GND on the SSC-32 .
