Wiring TS5700N8501

Can anyone point me at the direction where to find information how to wire (and configure) the a BLDC with TS5700N850 TS5700N8501 encoder to VESC !

 

### Update Oct 2 2020 ###

here are the electrical connections from the Spec. sheet:

Color Function Note Pin #
Red Vcc Main Power: DC +5V +/-5% 1
Black GND --- 2
Brown VB External Battery 3
Brown/Black GND --- 4
Blue SD+ Serial Data Positive (TX/RX+) 5
Blue/Black SD- Serial Data Negative (TX/RX-) 6
Gray CASE GND   7

Do you have a datasheet for the TS5700N850 because google just points at this forum topic.

It looks like I have to place a line driver/receiver between VEDC UART pins and TS5700N8501 ...

Why haven't you posted a datasheet krassi_s? I tried googling for this mysterious TS5700N850 encoder and I just end up at this forum post. Lately there's been a tendency for people to treat the 3-4 people who actually try and help others here as their personal unpaid consultancy and it's a little insulting.

You've posted some information from the datasheet so you must have access to it so I'm confused why you're not sharing it if you want us to help you?

Basically it won't work with the VESC without a lot of work. It's a serial UART encoder which hte VESC doesn't support directly observing the motor with. If you wanted to you could write an app to talk to this mystery encoder over serial and try and feed the data in that way. But then you hit the next problem, if your random snippet of data is to be believed it's a differential half-duplex serial connection, not the single ended full-duplex the VESC would expect. So the TI chip you link would work but would need a 3rd VESC pin to control the data direction, again you're into a custom VESC app.

No one will write the app for you, so I think you're on your own from here on.

Christ the amount of fucking about that could have been avoided with a datasheet in the first post.

Dude,

I think you are little overreacting ! 

First:
My original post title had a missing digit at the end of the model. The actual model is TS5700N8501 .... and I did not asked for any custom APP writing ... 

Second:
This encoder type is supported by the latest VESC firmware so my assumption was that someone already documented the connection interface.  

Here is what i just found by quick search on Google:

Plug the serial lines into the corresponding RX and TX lines on the COMM connector.
