Re: Potentiometer
Quick question and I dont want to start a thread about it. Do potentiometers have to be reset at all some way? Ive been tinkering with code and simply using the AnalogChannel->GetVoltage() and printing it to the console gives a voltage reading somewhere around ~30,000,000 which I assume means it isnt hooked up. No one has touched it since competition season and the potentiometer was fine since the last competition.

It is plugged into port 2 on an analog module.
