I have the same setup but I used:
Pypilot TX Blue > Pi5 RX GPIO1, Pin 28
Pypilot RX Green > Pi5 TX GPIO0, Pin 27
Pypilot GND Black > Pi5 Pin 6
Pypilot Vcc Red > Pi5 Pin 1
This uses UART1
This way I can use the Maiana
I will have the Motor controller 3mts away from the Pi5, near the motor/drive, so I will run 4 core to the Pi5.
You need 12v to the motor controller Power +ve & -ve.
The Motor A & B go to your motor.
The clutch of your drive must be connected between the +12V and the clutch output of the controller board, terminals side by side.
The clutch output is "Clutch -" and "Power +" so the clutch output is like a switch to "Power -" when engaged. +ve should go to +12v power source and -ve should go to -clutch terminal on board.
