    Default POT Command

    I presume that you have a circuit with:

    1. A variable resistor, say 10k, connected to +5 Volts.
    2. A capacitor, say 0.1mfd, connected to the the other end of the variable resistor and ground.
    3. The wiper of the pot/variable resistor connected to pin A.0.

    'Duty' should be a BYTE sized variable.
    'Scale' is used to get the best results. Try Scale=127, to start.

    The value of 'Duty' will be proportional to the setting of the variable resistance.

    See page 118 of the PBP handbook

    Default Thank you on the "POT" question

    Thank you Bill
    I was using the pot on the PICkit and I don't think it is wired that way.
    I'll use another 10 K variable resister and Capasitor connected to the board.
    Thanks again
    Larry
