Pat, Here is a picture of the cord you seek.
http://members.aol.com/rfsindg/IRPC-5P.jpg It has a receptical for 5 prongs from the Motor A. The cube on the other end goes in the IR reciever's battery compartment. That way, the reciever draws power from the Motor A instead of $$$ batteries. If KEH sent you the cord Boz shows, it's not for the IR system, it's a flash synch for an LX or 6x7II. If you truely have a 4p IR cord, with a cube at one end, that's for the LX motor drive and I'll trade you! Otherwise see ebay... Regards, Bob S.
