Transducer steering-wheel with potentiometer
The potentiometer has the following characteristics:
- Resistance 2,2 Kohm.
- The potentiometer supply is 12 V (5 V on the console). The
potentiometer should be installed so that in the "zero position"
(straightened wheels) the output voltage is 2,5 V. The
potentiometer has to be fitted so that when the trolley turns
clockwise the voltage decreases.
