Hello,

I am a new member to the group, and could really use some guidance. Question: can I use the 100A analog pots out of my old CH Products yoke with the appropriate Phidgets board for the new column yoke I am buiding?

Thank You All,
Sincerely
Jeff C.

Jeff,

Not familiar with CH Products or your specific project requirements.
If your question is "Do pots vary voltage ?" then the answer is:

Yes. You can connect any resistance that will alter Phidget's analog port voltage between 0 and 5V.

Details that are specific to your project. e.g whether to use rotary or slider pots, range of shaft travel, linearity, noise, etc you will to need to figure out your specific application.

Regards,
Alan.
