I am not sure which panel you have. Please send a link to the panel at Opencockpits.com

First you ahve to connect the panel's IDC cable to either an Expansion/Master card or an MIP card. (See documentation of panel)
You then have to link the panel's detected Expansion/Master in OC4BAv4/Config's Modules to MIP in Operation.
If you have other pin numbers than the default OC pin numbers you need to modify the script numbers for the panel.
See OC4BAv4 documentation.
Hope this clarify the issue a little bit for you.
It will work fine if you do this correctly

If you start SIOC and click SIOC Monitor and connect to your AutoBrake panel's USBExp, you can check the numberings of the inputs.
If these numbers are the same as the ones used in the OCP4NGX script, there is no need to modify the script.
The numbering of the inputs/output should also be in the AutoBrake panel documentation
