The connections would be below.

MICRO1 --> ACORN
PULSE --> ST
DIR --> DR
PWR --> EN
CPUVCC --> +5V
CPUGND --> COM

Remember that since those terminals on the ACORN are open-collector, you are going to want a pull-up resistor installed between those ACORN outputs and +5V. I would recommend either a 330 ohm resistor.
