Sorry for this newbie question, but I don't understand if I need to do anythign with pin 9 "G":

Here is what it says in the datasheet:
When output
enable (G) is held high, all data in the output
buffers is held low and all drain outputs are off.
When G is held low, data from the storage register
is transparent to the output buffers.
So does that mean I want G to be connected to ground if I'm using it in this sort of configuration:

I'm guessing G is the same as OE (Output Enable) on these other 595s?
