I purchased this HX711 / 4 load sensor combo and have been having a hellish time putting it together. My intent is to verify each connection here before continuing on to the next step.

To make life simpler, I also got a load combinator. First, I want to make sure I'm hooking up the cells to the combinator correctly. When I hook my MM up on Ohms (automatic) to the white and black wires of the load cells, I get a reading of about 2. White and Red and Red and Black each return 1. From my understanding of the documentation, this means white and black are +/- and the common is red. So should I hook up each of the load cells to the combinator with white to +, black to - and red to C? Does this make sense?
