Don't worry just connect Arduino Uno using serial port and upload this file to the Arduino Uno.
Now we need CNC shield, Nema 17 stepper motor, AR498 stepper motor driver, HC-05/HC-06 bluetooth module. Here i have used HC-05 bluetooth module.
Connect CNC shield with arduino, connect motor driver with cnc shield and also connect HC-05 bluetooth module with cnc shield as below picture.

Connect motor with cnc shield

Also connect power supply to cnc shield between 12V to 36V dc range. Also give power supply to Arduino board of 5V dc using USB cable.
