Stepper Motor Question

So I think I have wired the motors correctly but I have a question. I know my pin arrangment for my motors is as follows:

Pin 1: B-
Pin 2: COM
Pin 3: B
Pin 4: A
Pin 5: COM
Pin 6: A-

How do these correspond to the RAMPS board (2A, 2B, 1A, 1
Thanks

The wires work in pairs, orientation doesn't matter, so long as they are next to each other.

Switching any will result in a direction change on the motor.
So if you flip the whole connector it will reverse, as will just swapping the twos.


So:
B- to pin 2a
B to pin 2b
A to pin 1a
A- to pin 1b

but it can also be
B to pin 2a
B- to pin 2b
A- to pin 1a
A to pin 1b

or even
B to pin 1a
B- to pin 1b
A- to pin 2a
A to pin 2b

or
B- to pin 1a
B to pin 1b
A to pin 2a
A- to pin 2b

Alright this is my arrangment, but they are not similiar to your arrangment. Both my "A" desnigations correspond to a A- or B-. In all of your choices the negative and positive are alwasy opposite. As in if A- is 2b the B- is 1a and vice versa.

A- to pin 2a
A to pin 2b
B- to pin 1a
B to pin 1b
