VESC 100/250: analog regen brake AND e-brake cut switch?

On the VESC 100/250, I would like to use a second thumb throttle for light variable regen braking, as well as separate hand e-brake switches on the mechanical brakes to cut motor for emergency braking (without regen).  Is this possible?

It seems the brake throttle signal should be connected to ADC2 as Current No Reverse Braking, and the hand e-brake switches (in parallel) should be connected between RX and GND as CURRENT_NOREV_BRAKE_BUTTON.  Is this correct?

Thank you!

Brake to ADC 2 and PPM can be used as a emergency power cut. You need to configure t this way:  APP Settings >> General >> KILL SWITCH MODE
