Use Figure 4 for Boe-Bot, ActivityBot, or Shield-Bot robots. If you set
up your robot's breadboard according to Figure 2, the servo extension cables
will always be connected in the configuration shown below, regardless of
which robot you are using.

What are the 10 kΩ resistors for? A 10 kΩ resistor can be added across
each QTI W and R terminal to make the sensor supply an analog output
voltage. This can be useful for systems with analog to digital (A/D) inputs.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT try to use 10 kΩ resistors with Parallax line-following
example code; the code will not work.
