Last year, I was thrown into programming during the season, so I never really quite got the potentiometer part. We are not exactly sure where to add the basic potentiometer data (definition, etc). Also, we plan to have set values, so we are wondering where could we define such values. We appreciate any help we can get.
Thanks in advance,

Pots are easy. Check out the FIRST Guidelines, Tips, and Good Practices document. But basically, the pot gives a 0-5 V signal, which is read by the RC using Get_Analog_Value() (unless you're using Kevin Watson's ADC.c/h), yielding a 10 bit value (0-1023).
