Please help wiring bipolar stepper

I am trying to wire a bipolar stepper motor to a pulse signal generator I bought off Ebay so I can test out stepper motors. I have a 12V power supply connected to it but can only make the motor hum and doesn't move. It did not come with any documentation and I am having trouble finding anything on the internet. I did find this on google but still not sure how to connect the motor. I have attached a picture of the signal generator

My motor has black and green wires for one coil. Red and blue wires for the other coil.

Thanks,
Greg

I'm not following you,

You have a stepper motor, but no stepper driver?

You can't run a stepper motor with just a single pulsing wire.

You require 4 stepping in sequence.

Ok thanks, I was under the impression this would act as a stand alone controller/driver to run a stepper motor. Here is the ebay link where I bought it.

What do you recommend for a driver?

Yeah, on that ebay's link, Feature #1

1. This is pulse module, can provide 2.5 KHZ-68 KHZ frequency, supply signal to stepper driver. If you want to control the stepper motor, you still must use a motor driver."]

How about asking the wiki? [www.reprap.org]

Let me save you some REAL frustration. I think that is the same one I bought and I did have the necessary motor driver. In the picture it shows output pins marked pulse & direction, same as mine. BUT, on the one I bought those pins were actually forward pulses and reverse pulses! So the motor ran fine in one dirction and chattered like hell in the other. I wasted lots of time checking wiring & connections. So what we all need to do is give this vendor really negative feedback on Ebay!

Thank-you all for the great feedback. I am still a noob to all this but will eventually learn enough toand build my own printer. At this point I don't think it will be more cost effective to build my own or wait until December for my Rigidbot.
