Once again I Ask for your help.
Like I mention Before I'm relatively new to electronics and Picaxe world, but I'm learning and having fun as we go along.
Cool..
I'm trying to get a reading out of a POT. attached to a Force feedback steering wheel (Logitech Driving force EX) to a Picaxe 28X1 via Readadc.
I spliced into the POT. center wire(white) the other 2 wires are red and Black.
PROBLEM: Pot uses power out of the steering controller less then 5 Volts I would say. When attached to the 28X1 it looses its force feed back. it will not self center and it jitters. When the wire is removed from the 28X1 it works just fine, it centers itself.
Reading the the Manual 3 Input Device 2 - Potentiometer
the diagram shows the power for the Pot is supplied by the same circuitry of the pic. Could this be my problem??
If so, is there a solution I might have missed ?
Once again thank you for the Help..
