I went there already, but the descriptions:

does not give much clue as to usage, especially as I see that the pins
are unwired on the backplanes, and require ones to add jumpers to
connect them.? I understand that they are used to "chain" boards
toghether in some order, but how and why is left as an exercise for the
reader.
I looked at each of the backplane schematics for guidance, as well as
looking at various ECB cards (the interrupt card I thought would have
more detail, but alas, not)

Looking at the schematic for the ECB, I cannot
find any description of
the signals BAI, BAO, IEI, and IEO.? Can anyone shed some light on the
function of these signals?

I have some ECB documentation "somewhere", but I'm moving so it is in
one of the 100s boxes somewhere :(
But the guys on the retrobrewcomputers can help you for sure.
And yes, I like ECB, it was small & simple, you still can get boards
for it, and the DIN conectors I still use ...
