You apparently have something connected to the "I" (index) pin of the Jaguar's encoder input. A signal on that pin will reset the count. Try just removing that connection and see if the count starts doing what you expect.

The wire leading that plugs into (-) on the Jag gets split into two and goes into gnd and Csn on the encoder.
