When connecting U V W wires to Spindle connector there probably won't be any notable pin order so just connect to each wire to a pin and if the spindle runs in reverse swap any 2 wires at VFD. This is quite normal and doesn't cause any harm.

I've added the wiring connections for start/Stop has it's very simple and useful being controlled thru G-code. You can walk away and know spindle will stop at same time cutting does or if E-stop occurs.
This uses the Relay on the BOB if your BOB has one. If BOB doesn't have relays then you can use an External Relay switched from an Output pin on BOB provided it has Coil currant lower than your BOB outputs. Bob manual should tell you this.

For this to work VFD parameters will need setting to inform run/stop commands are coming from an external source. Your VFD manual will show the Parameters for this.
Then you'll need to set spindle settings in your Control software to switch the chosen output pin. This will then turn on/off when it sees M3/M5 in G-code so turning spindle On/off.

Has you can I'm not giving specifics on this because I'm not sure what Control software your using but if using Mach3 and can't work it out then just ask and I'll explain.
