Any one pair up the Oak Board with BUM618-12 motor drives?

No, but post a link to a manual. Perhaps we can look at it.
Describe the machine, the spindle motor you are working on.

Link to manual above. Currently hooked up to an Allen Bradley 8200. It is for an Electron Beam Welder. Just need to drive an X Y table.

Drive has an encoder emulator and not sure what wires to use for earth Inc. emulation and +5V Inc. emulation.

By "earth" they probably mean the 0V, or Common, level of the 5VDC supply. That would connect to pin 7 or pin 8 of the Oak 30-pin axis header.

If the Baumuller drive requires that the CNC control provide +5VDC to power the emulated encoder circuit (unusual, but not unheard of) then you will have to splice it in from the Oak logic power supply. The Oak axis interface headers do not have +5VDC on any pin, because the Oak design assumes that the servo drives will power the encoder and line drivers themselves.

Used +5VDC from power supply, got encoder feed back! Now for analog input 0 (pos) pin5 and analog input 0 (neg) pin 23 on the drive.
I am guessing pin 26 and pin 28 on the flying lead to OAK.
