Where to connect the Button for Reverse driver?, in ADC mode (Ebike throttle)

Hello Everyone,

I have renew a old Electric ATV for Kids, i took out the old motor, and i put 70KV 80100 Outrunner. Which connected to 48V 30Ah (120A Peak) Lithium Pack.

The VESC6 software works fantastic.

I dont know where to connect the reverse driver button ? Which port it belong too ? ADC2 ?  and should i give 3.3V or 5V or just GND signal ? to where?

 

Thank you in advance. 

Astro

I'm in the same boat as you. I've put some larger motors in my daughter's electric jeep and am  building a variable throttle pedal so it doesn't strip the gears. Unfortunately there is very little information available about the reverse button. Did you manage to solve your problem?

Reverse button should go on RX pin. The pin has a pull up so you just need a switch to pull it to ground.

Turns out in my case that the reverse button actually goes on the PWM pin. Is this a difference in the VESC 4 and VESC 6 hardware?
