I don't think there is a way to write from LInuxcnc to the MPG Screen. I think it must use the USB for that.
As far as the wiring goes, the circuit diagram on the receiver is all you need as each part is a seperate set of pins.
The estop is designed to be standards based with two redundant circuits but it works for a single sided estop as well.
You used to have to ask for a 5 volt encoder for mesa but now I think there is a switch to select between 5v and 24v on the board.
I always have used the digital I/O for axis and jog speed select to save pins (with a MUX8 or MUX4)

This recent config I did uses the same pendant and there is a seperate hal file and also a custom component to manage the three jogging buttons
