Programming Potentiometer for Shooter

Hey guys, I have a potentiometer that I want to program for our shooter. The basic idea is that we would have a potentiometer on our driver station with a knob (bought from radioshack ) that will control the speed of our shooter. The knob will start in a position which would have the motor off but once the knob is turned it would turn on the shooter motor and the speed would be get either faster or slower by turning the knob. This is similar to a volume control on a pair of headphones or speakers. I was wondering how I would be able to do this in Labview? We will be using the eStop robotics custom control interface to plug into the driver station because we had problems with the cypress board in the past.
