How do I make it work or at least test it in an upright. I have 3 set laying here that I would like to test. It currently has the 2 board pcb in it.
 
You're going to need a cocktail/cabaret wiring harness, as even a DK upright with the multi-connector harness instead of the later card edge connector will be missing the needed 7P SOU board power plug. If I had an old DK with the multi harness and the only thing between me and testing 3 boards was a 7P power connector, I'd maybe try to fashion one...

Or you send all 3 to me, I test them, and send you back 2 :)

If your cab has the 'little connector' harness, you just need to buy/make a 7-pin power harness for the power connector on the sound board.

Otherwise... it's a complete pain in the ass :)
 
Yeah, I've got an older DK with the 4-board set and the only difference is that the 4-Board version had and extra cable. It's a 7P cable that runs from the power supply to the sound board. Everything else hooks up the same (just in different spots.) Get a TKG-3UP manual off the internet and a TKG-4 manual and check the wiring and connection charts to see exactly where everything goes.

If you have an edge connector it won't work, you'd need a whole harness.
