I usually can't remember which plug color is which. It's safe to try one way, then the other. If the Demo Board is producing video, you'll get a buzz sound from the display's speaker if you've got them backwards (and you won't get an image).

The display also works fine on 9V as opposed to the 12V marked on the outside. I think I tried it once with a 7.5V adapter and it worked fine. Lower voltages reduce the amount of heat it produces.
