Alright, so. The M12 (12mm) "aviation plug" was too small.
So I ordered this "GX16" - 16mm "aviation plug":
It's unfortunately too big! =|
DREMEL TO THE RESCUE!!
I was able to take a dremel to it & I've got it "fitting" well enough, at least well-enough for a test run. But I need to figure out the pin-out... =(
Does anyone have a technical/wiring diagram, or know what the pin-outs are? Really, I only need to know which pins are ultimately connected to the "GREEN" and "YELLOW" wires on the official RS-485 kit (P/N 356324Z - which is unavailable anywhere).
I've searched high & low, so far I cannot find any information on the pin-outs. Even just knowing which pins are *not* the "GREEN"/"YELLOW" should tell me enough to be able to figure out which is green & which is yellow. But I can't find that information anywhere.
If you have the *non* RS-485 connector (P/N 353129Z) -- could you look at the part that plugs into the pump, and examine the plug closely to see if two of the "pin connectors" (on the side you plug-in to the pump [female side]) have no metal on them?
Alternatively, if anyone has a continuity tester and has this version of the cord, could you test the pins and figure out which two pins don't have corresponding wires on the other end (basically process of elimination to determine which two pins are yellow/green).
Worst case... I may have to buy the "353129Z" (non RS-485) connector just to figure out which two pins it is. If someone already has it and can help figure out which pins though, I'd *really* appreciate it!!
So I ordered this "GX16" - 16mm "aviation plug":
