Wiring & getting started
- Identify the wiper
The centre terminal is the adjustable output. The two outer terminals connect to the ends of the resistance track.
- Connect with power off
Connect the outer terminals to ground and a reference supply suitable for your board's analog input. Connect the centre terminal to the analog input and use a shared ground.
- Test the adjustment
Read the analog input while turning the shaft. Swap the outer connections with power off if the direction is reversed. The Quick Start includes a simple multimeter check.
- Check the mechanical fit
Check the panel hole, clearance and knob fit before mounting. Secure the threaded bushing with the washer and nut, and avoid forcing the shaft past its stops.
Note: Use a suitable driver circuit for motors and LED loads; the potentiometer supplies the control signal.
