Connector
Note: on the rubbery back side of the connector, the printed "1" seems to be closer to the hole to the left of the "1", but pin 1 is to the right of the "1".
The center pin 22 is a bit off-center to the bottom. Together with hole straight below it, they constitute the vertical center axis of the connector. At the two circles above, the center axis splits between 21/15 and 14/1. At the outermost circle below, it runs between 7/8. The 4 holes above 22 are almost in a perfect square pattern.

On the (hard) back-end of the connector, the numbers are printed in a way that the "1" is actually closer to pin "1".

(as seen from the back of the connector where you insert the pins through the silicone seals)
