What the status labels mean

Confirmed: Recorded research passes agree within this variant; this is not independent human review or hardware validation.
Single source: Only one underlying document, or one pass, supports this assignment.
Device-specific: Supported for the named equipment or wiring only. Check your device’s manual.
Unverified: Missing or conflicting evidence. Do not wire from this row.
Not connected: The source explicitly says NC, no contact or no pin for this wiring.
