That is exactly what I am  wiring up.

I am wiring per SJM picture with three connectors - but what are the
connector colors/order.  The picture seems to indicate a black on left,
brown in middle and white on right.  So where's the blue?  and
shouldn't there be either a brown or a white, but not both?
