Re: need assistance with BOB -> KL6050 connections
I am not sure what that is: it looks like a pendant and some sort of BoB. The description is that poor I would hesitate to touch it myself.
Can I assume that any instructions are in incomprehensible Chinglish? If there are any?
Re: need assistance with BOB -> KL6050 connections
Your assumptions are startlingly correct sir!
When shopping for a BOB, I noticed this one had the LCD and I thought it would be straightforward enough since most of the parallel BOBs functioned more-or-less the same. I now know that looking at a computer screen and having some wishful thoughts isn't a whack of wires and pcbs in your lap! lol!!
I figured someone here might have seen one of these before.
I've found some posts that suggest the wires from the BOB (XS, XD) go to DIR- and PUL- and another states DIR+ and PUL+.
Which creates two more possible scenarios: if BOB wires go to -ve connectors, where should I pull the 5V for the +ve ones? Conversely, where should I pull ground if the BOB wires go to the +ve connectors? From the mockumentation, XN is listed as GND. Can that be used to ground the control circuitry on the driver? Or is that bad practice?

I am sorry: I have never seen the thing physically and have no idea what the labeling means. I doubt the vendor from whom you bought it knows anything either. A lot of them just take the money and run.
Me, I run an ESS and some MB02 BoBs from Homann Designs. Good doco, LED displays, and they work well.
