Hi,
The good news here is that it you are not going to damage anything if you get it wrong.
Gnd should go to the shield (I expect), input +/- goes to 0V and 5V (does not matter which is which) and output +/- goes to Signal+ and Signal-. Again it does not matter which is which. Normal is that compression gives a positive number and stretch gives a negative number, so you can swap Signal+/- if it is not the case. But this is anyway taken care of in the calibration, so it is not really necessary.
