How to wire a SF800 (swiss flowmeter) into a kegboard-mini shield?

Hello, I am currently in the process of building a kegbot, and was wondering how I could wire a SF800 flowmeter into a kegboard-mini shield. Traditionally people use these things called keg coasters, and wire the flowmeter into the kegcoaster, but I wanted to directly wire into the kegboard-mini shield, bypassing the need of the coaster. There are three wires that branch off the flowmeter. One has a red stripe on it, and I believe that is GND, the middle wire is the one that sends the pulses back to the Arduino, and I put green heat shrink tubing on it to identify it. The last wire I believe requires 5VDC to complete the circuit and power the flowmeter.

Once I get this wired up, I would like to test out the flowmeter, and I came across this thread using the flowmeter with an Arduino. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks for the reply, kinda of knew what each wire on the flowmeter already does, just trying to figure out how i can wire into a kegboard-mini shield :confused:
