Connecting shield braid - J14 - IO board

Dear all, where to connect shield braids from the cables on the J14 part of the IO board? I used 6 shielded cables made from an audio cable with the inner wire crimped/soldered and inserted into the 6-pin housing (obviously that part stripped of the shield). Should I solder the braids of the 6 cables to the hole 2 and 4 of J14? The guide says "Master cable pin2 and pin4 are shielded ground". Am I getting this wrong? Tnx!

Since there was no reply, I will answer my own question. Yes, the approach is to solder the twisted braids of cables 1 and 3 to cable 2 and braids of cables 5 and 6 to cable 4.
