| You connect a bipolar stepper motor (4 wires - two wires per coil) to the two motor terminals. One coil gets connected to one motor screw terminal, and the other coil gets connected to the other motor screw terminal. You will have to play with the orientation of the coil wires, so that the motor gets stepped correctly. You can tell which two wires belong to a coil by connecting the motor wires together. Once two wires from the same coil are connected, the motor will be harder to turn. The other two wires will be for the other coil. Once you have the wires connected for both coils (individually), the motor will be much harder to turn. Once you have the coil wires identified, just connect the coil wires to the motor terminal. Then, you can start using the step and sweep commands to control it. Also, make sure your motor doesn't draw more that the h-bridges are rated for (4A per coil). Best Regards!
