Default Testing Dynon Aileron Servo

Around 2-3 years ago, I purchased a Dynon Aileron Servo to be installed in the right wing of an RV7. The wing is now under construction. Today, I thought I would test the motor in situ. There are 7 wires from the servo. Am I right in concluding that if I wire up only the red and black wires that the motor should run? At the moment, when I do this, the motor does not run. Any help for the electrically challenged much appreciated.

Default Dynon servo

According to my wiring the red is power and black is ground. However, just supplying power won't make it move. It is a smart servo, and requires the DSAB connections to tell it what to do.

Thanks for your quick answer, Don. That was what I was hoping for.
