Everything above is correct. Yes you are misreading it.
If in doubt just google it
JST XH
-"0.098" (2.50mm) Pitch Shrouded Through Hole and Surface Mount Pin Header Connectors"
JST PH
-"0.079" (2.00mm) Pitch Shrouded Through Hole and Surface Mount Pin Header Connectors"
JST ZH
-" 0.059" (1.50mm) Pitch Free Hanging Crimp Receptacle Connector Housings"
If doing things manually stick as much as you can to XH, crimping PH is bearable, crimping ZH by hand is nigh impossible.
With the pitch spacings above you can use the standard 0.1" headers in your pcb program for the JST-XH components. An 8 way 0.1" spacing header makes the same holes as for a JST-XH 8 way connector

As you know I'm doing the interconnect board for the airsoft tanks and size is the issue so I need the smaller JST, but going to ZH I think would be too small. And I'm having a very hard time finding any kind of a reliable size comparison between XH and PH on the net. Even the datasheets are a little confusing. Seems like PH should be bigger, but in data sheets I think it shows a 2 pin XH is thicker than PH... unless I'm misreading it.

Since the elevation servo wire is not needed but a Battery Voltage + is we can make this change on wire 4. Wire 3 then becomes the recoil "motor" signal. Hence....
1. V0
2. V+ (5 volts)
3. Recoil motor signal
4. Battery Voltage +
5. Elevation Motor A (JST-XH)
6. Elevation Motor B (JST-XH)
7. IR- (JST-PH)
8. IR+ (JST-PH)
9. Flash/LED signal (JST-XH)
10. MG2 (JST-PH)
11. Indicator LED - (JST-PH)
12. IR signal (JST-PH)
NOTE: Asp does not require the microswitch input and it can be removed and the 2 wires assigned then re-assigned to more useful functions - MG2 and Indicator LEDs.

There is no colour coding all you have to do is assign whatever colours you have to the 1- 12 list above. I have a different slip ring to you in any case plus I don't have the unit on hand. Your unit will probably have 12 different colours.
Which way up will depend on where you mount your slip ring. You will want the rotating end to go to the part that is rotating. If you mount in the hull it will be the turret that is rotating if you mount in the turret it is the hull that is rotating.

A small PCB has been made to convert these 12 wires to the 20 odd pins required for all of the turret elements. Most of the first run of this PCB have been already reserved. Unfortunately, there will not be another run until late January 2016.
