Help installing a Power Commander on ZX12

Should there be a separate earth feed in the PC loom somewhere, or does it connect to earth via the large loom connection blocks? I ask, as I bought a PC3 (serial connection) off ebay (here we go...) and have set about installing it, but when I found some additional instructions online, they show the fitting of a separate earth, but this unit doesn't seem to have one. I have completely unwound the loom tape, and taken the back off the PC3 itself, but I can find no evidence of a separate wire... I am getting a green light on the PC3 when I power it up, but my computer isn't recognising it as being there - hence I got worried about the earthing! Ok, enough from me... Anyone able to offer any experience with these things?! Ta.

my usb version has a power and earth not on plugs but i dont know about the pc3 version. When plugged up does the lights follow the throttle when its moved? I would say its more the pc connection if you cant find a wire thats been cut off and a driver will need to be installed aswell as the commander software before the pc can be plugged in.
