Getting Started

If it’s the first time you work with a VESC, you SHOULD consult senior members. If you forgot the steps, DO NOT attempt blindly. Doing so can cause severe bodily injury or death.

1. Verify Electronics Configuration
   1. XT60 and MR60 Connectors
   2. CAN Bus Termination Resistor

Verify Electronics Configuration

XT60 and MR60 Connectors

The 2-wire power input and three-phrase conenctors are XT60 and MR60 respectively.

If the protector is not capped, make sure:

• No short among any pins
• Red cable goes into the +ve socket and black cable into the -ve socket (XT60 only)

Use a vise or any tool of your choice to attach the protective cap afterwards.
