Sorry, but at least in the PCB layouts in the service manuals from 
Sensos site show three different layouts for the sliders of Juno-6, JP-4 
and RS-505.

The Juno has the housing pins at the end, the slider pins on each end 
centered between the housings pins and the resistor strip at a side 
position at 10% and 90% of the length.
The JP-4 has the housing pins at 33% and 66% of the length and all 
electrical pins in one row at the side
The RS-505 (same as VP-330) has the housing pins at the end  but much 
wider housings than the Juno, all electrical pins are at 10% and 90% of 
the length.
