Graphics, that makes about eight of us I know of on here now My real intro to controls began with interest in typesetters and plate cameras.

  Don't feel bad Ironman, you are learning

  These folks can talk tech lingo that takes time to learn on top of basics   I was away for months so also have no clue what the "Buffer" is unless by chance that is Dale M's boost.  It also takes time for these folk to gauge your knowledge, and sometimes they try to answer to best help you long term, vs easy peasy, sometimes search homework is expected too. Ask again if it's not clear after some thought though.

 Im guessing your baulking at soldering here.  It's pretty easy; good solder and clean metal is 75% of it. A good skill to learn in the hobby as well. 

   But besides solder there is an alternative though a tad slower and more costly (till you can learn to hack like pro's ).    "Pinout" implies a female plug is, or can be utilized. I.e., crimp a female terminal on wire, insert into pigtail plug's hole#5 and plug the thing onto the board. All crimpers are not created equal. Getting a good one makes the job easy.     Note for the future, there are even special tools for removing terminals for each socket type as well, though a fat needle or hat pin can often push the tabs for release/removal without plug damage too, the tools are a breeze.
