I am using potentiometers to program my steering and when I test the potentiometers I have to reset the program to recieve any new data. Could someone help me make it so that I constantly recieve input. I am using basic.

Okay, I have it so that it takes the input from the pot. Then it gets the voltage, then it displays the voltage. However, when I turn the pot, it doesn't register a change in voltage. Hopefully that clarifies it.

Oh, no. It wasn't in a while loop. That fixed the problem.

Dang, now the values are jumping all over the place
