Is it possible without solder to use this extension from BNC to Mindi Din 4 pin?

I just receive the probe but they send me the DJS-10. I open a complain and they send me the image attached showing the right image for each probe. So, I have 15 days to send back, but before Im going to try it, if it works I keep it.

I bought

bnc connector ( waiting to receive )

4 din cable that im going to cut on the middle and connect to the BNC female connector

Any advices ?

The DJS-10 is the correct one and should work. I would cut the connector from the original cable from the old probe and connect this to the probe.

I've done order Yesterday to same seller in AliExpress
I've chat with seller, they Will do work for me, probe Cell constant 10 with mini din 4 solder instead of BNC as by instruction provided:
The probe has a BNC connector, but an adapter is very easy to make. The inner pin of the BNC goes to pin 1 of the mini din 4 pin connector. The outside of the BNC goes to pin 2 of the mini din 4 pin connector.

It Will do with 15$ more includere solder and din 4 PIN provided.

I get a risk hopping It Will work
