When running a ViX-IE drive with a brushed motor that also has encoder feedback, it is necessary to have LOADENC set to 1 and the following wiring configuration for the X2 and X4 connectors.
Connection on the Vix X1 connector | |||
---|---|---|---|
Vix X1 connector | Motor Terminal | ||
Motor phase U | + | ||
Motor phase W | - |
Connection on the ViX X2 connector |

HALL 1 (pin 9) and 2 (pin 13) are jumpered to GND |
Connection on the Vix X4 connector | |||
---|---|---|---|
Vix X4 Pin | Encoder Signal | ||
4 | GND | ||
5 | +Vcc (+5VDC) | ||
7 | /A | ||
8 | B | ||
12 | A | ||
13 | /B |
Notes on LOADENC
The default setting for LOADENC is 0, which sets the Vix drive to commutate from the X2 encoder input. The current output on phase U and W will vary based on the position of the encoder connected to X2.
