Look carefully at the picture and actually use a temperature sensor to connect the voltage and temperature signals simultaneously.

oops! (embarrassed), thanks linqf for quick response. I mistakenly thought that one of the + wires was one that came with the BMV-712. Evidently, neither of those wires are required when the Temp Sensor is used.
