Pinout for CS44 cable Mini-Din Male to Flexstrip 3-conductor

[pvc]

Starting with a pinout of the standard CS44 cable at the Mini-Din Male end (on right of image) that plugs into the Hi Pro here’s the connectivity. Pins 5&6 are never used because it’s a 4-pin cable, and for purposes of connecting to a 3-conductor, Flex Strip Pin 1 is also unused. That leaves pins 3, 2, 4. With the Flex Strip lying flat with the CS44 hole pointing up, the Mini-Din male pins 3,2,4 have connectivity from top to bottom of the Flex Strip as pictured below.

Note that the standard 3-conductor flexstrip is conductive only on one side. That is, the side with the black-alignment-bubble. The pictures show the opposite side (non-conductive) in order to clearly show the pinout.

I personally tested this pinout yesterday (4/13/2023) with some help from (Her) my soldering buddy. The images below are my images photographed by me!
