I would guess (only a guess) that each one of those pins is a separate relay coil, powered against the shell/ground. Using an ohmmeter measure from each of those pins to ground, they should be approx. the same resistance. Apply power from a variable supply between a pin a ground. Bring the supply up slowly and check the connection between the common and the outputs at each step. I think you'll find that at about 20 volts or so the connection will be made.
