    Hi

    In adition to what cocacolakid wrote and as in the PBP manual I think that using 700Ohm will be a pain in the ...

    They suggest to use something between 5k to 50k, I've already tried it with 1k pot and the results were not good.

    I think that one of the real experts ( Melanie, Darrel, Bruce ...) on this things had already wrote that the best results were achieved with pot greater than 5K. Run a search

    regards

    i'm not an expert but it read the RC time so, it will be a perfect match of your resistor and your Capacitor.

    The logic will say ===> lower resistor + Higer cap = Higher resistor + lower capacitor.

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

    Thanks boys for your usefull information.

    I will try to read the POT Value and as cocacolakid said the
    degrees = (POT Value*141)/100
    displaied on LCD.

    Cocacolakid,A GUESTION?For POT Value max = 255 how I should find the scale?

    Does anyone have an expirience using smaller R than the range of 5k-50k?
    I am going to measure a POT = 700Ohm

    Please any adittional information would be grate for me.

    Regards

    Look up the POT command in the manual. It has a really good description for setting the scale.
