Re: Limited OI Range From Linear Slide Potentiometers
Mr. Pierce, we tried disconnecting the ground as well, and got the exact same range of data from the OI. (0-255, but from 80% motion of pot)

Mr. Anderson, what is the "low end" of the pot?, what is the "wiper"?, sorry about my lack of terminology. Why a 22K resistor, why not say, a 50K?

Thanks for your help!
