How to connect MPU6050 breakout board to VESC 4.12

I'm trying to connect my MPU6500 sensor to VESC firmware using VESC tool.

I've connected VCC, GND, SCL and SDA lines, then selected "Balance" app in general app settings, finally, I've chosen the IMU_TYPE_EXTERNAL_MPU9X50.

Unfortunately, the "mpu_status" command in VESC Terminal says the "MPU9x50 not found". There is no sensor output.

I can connect to this MPU6050 breakout board using Arduino Nano.

What could be wrong? What am I missing?
