Question re. Hoppy convertor.

I have a model #48845 Hoppy but no instructions. It has four wires on one side labeled; white=grnd, brown=tail, yellow=l turn, green=r turn.
The other side has five wires labeled the same with an extra wire; red=brake.
My dilema...which is the input side and which is the output side? I've looked on their website but it doesn't specify input/output.

the 5 wires are the input (hooked to the bike) the four wires are to the trailer.

Thanks Chrise, I'm going to use it to hook up my turn signals in back. I now have them set up to work as a three way; run, turn, brake. But, the brake function quite working and it's been so long since I did the wiring I don't recall what/how I did it. Using this Hoppy will simplify things a lot. I already have real bright LED's in back with dual brilliance so I'll have to do a little experimenting I think since they have two wires; one for run, one for turn/brake. I'm not even certain this particular model will work so if someone has experience with this(two wires plus ground), please speak up. Might save me a burned out LED...or worse.
