If you were to desire to use the telemetry features I would assume you would connect the SBUS2 port on your receiver to the Telemetry port on the GSU? If that is true, you would have two data lines connecting your receiver to the GSU which is how I set up my test stand. If you look up in the thread there has been a discussion that this may not be the way to do it. Others have a single data line from the SBUS2 port of their receiver to the Telemetry port on the GSU and do not connect a throttle line from their receiver to the PPM port on the GSU. The question we have been discussing is which is actually the correct safe way to connect the throttle to the GSU? Can you help us out here?
While I haven't played around with it specifically here are my thoughts on it.
Method 1. Connected like I did in the video. PPM port connected to throttle channel on receiver. No telemetry.
Method 2. Connected PPM port to throttle on Rec and Telemetry on receiver connected to Telemetry port on GSU. I tried this. I run JR DMSS Protocol so I didn't get any telemetry data.
Method 3. I didn't try connected this to my receiver as an SBUS/Xbus System as I figured it wouldn't work as JR protocol is Xbus and Sbus is mentioned. If using the Bus setup works and you get 1. control and 2. telemetry data than should work fine.

Probably not helpful at all but.....
