Connecting a speedo

I have two wires coming from the magnetic sensor that I am using for my Revotec speedo but on the wiring harness for the speedo there is only one wire to connect the sensor to.
Am I supposed to connect both wires from the sensor to the one from the speedo? Im no auto electrician but that seems odd.

The only remaing wires that I have not used are:-

Harness reset switch
Pull up/down
speed signal (hall/ecu)

Im sure these have nothing to do with the magnetic sender.
