Wiring some stuff

This may be a newB question...I am trying to re-wire my Line lock and my QTP E-cutout. I need some help.

1. I have a 2 wire set-up for the line lock. Does it matter that the switch on my switch plate has 2 wires? Use the outer 2? One give away the hot source but no marking on the other side.

2. I have a QTP electric cutout it has multiple wires and the switch I have only has 6? Which ones do I use and how to I re-wire this thing?

The third pole on your switch should be for it to light up if it is a singlethrow switch, or if its a dual throw switch the middle is common and the two outers go with the switch in that position.

So the middle one on the line lock goes to the light? It is a ground maybe and the red feeds both or a red/power and the ground feeds both?

if i can read it correct, it has A, B, and -. A and B go to 12v source and linelock input. Either can go to either. Then ground to -
