Verify

 

the

 

Resistance

 

of

 

the

 

Pol

 

Pot:

 

The

 

polang

 

potentiometer

 

(pol

 

pot)

 

consists

 

of

 

an

 

internal

 

slider

 

as

 

well

 

as

 

a

 

CW

 

and

 

CCW

 

contact.

 

To

 

verify

 

the

 

resistance

 

of

 

the

 

pot

 

a

 

multi

 

meter

 

can

 

be

 

used

 

to

 

measure

 

between

 

the

 

slider

 

and

 

one

 

of

 

the

 

wipers

 

whilst

 

rotating

 

the

 

shaft

 

through

 

its

 

range

 

and

 

verifying

 

the

 

0

 

 

5K

 

ohms

 

is

 

outputted

 

correctly.

 

Disconnect

 

J1

 

from

 

motor

 

termination

 

PCB

 

assembly.

   

 

 

 

Looking

 

down

 

onto

 

the

 

shaft

 

of

 

the

 

pot

 

rotate

 

it

 

clockwise

 

until

 

it

 

reaches

 

its

 

end

 

stop.

  

Now

 

measure

 

the

 

resistance

 

between

 

the

 

slider

 

and

 

the

 

CW

 

contact

 

(red

 

cable,

 

pin

 

3

 

on

 

the

 

IDC

 

connector

 

and

 

the

 

grey

 

cable

 

pin

 

2

 

on

 

the

 

IDC

 

connector).

  

The

 

feedback

 

should

 

be

 

approximately

 

0k

 

ohms.

 

 

 

Now

 

slowly

 

rotate

 

the

 

shaft

 

of

 

the

 

pot

 

counter

 

clockwise,

 

the

 

reading

 

should

 

count

 

up

 

sequentially.

 

After

 

five

 

turns

 

the

 

pot

 

will

 

be

 

in

 

the

 

centre

 

of

 

its

 

range

 

giving

 

a

 

resistance

 

of

 

approximately

 

25k

 

ohms.

  

 

 

 

Continue

 

to

 

rotate

 

the

 

pot

 

until

 

the

 

counter

 

clockwise

 

end

 

stop

 

(it

 

will

 

now

 

have

 

turned

 

through

 

all

 

10

 

rotations

 

of

 

its

 

range),

 

the

 

resistance

 

should

 

be

 

approximately

 

5k

 

ohms.

 

 

Leaving

 

the

 

pot

 

at

 

its

 

counter

 

clockwise

 

end

 

stop

 

measure

 

between

 

the

 

clockwise

 

contact

 

and

 

the

 

slider

 

(grey

 

cable,

 

pin

 

2

 

on

 

the

 

IDC

 

connector

 

and

 

the

 

brown

 

cable

 

pin

 

1

 

on

 

the

 

IDC

 

connector)

 

the

 

resistance

 

should

 

be

 

reversed

 

from

 

the

 

previous

 

rotation,

 

reading

 

0

 

ohms.

 

Rotating

 

the

 

shaft

 

of

 

the

 

pot

 

clockwise

 

should

 

increase

 

the

 

resistance

 

through

 

its

 

range

 

to

 

5k

 

ohms.

 

Any

 

error

 

with

 

the

 

pot

 

not

 

giving

 

the

 

correct

 

resistance

 

is

 

an

 

indication

 

the

 

pot

 

is

 

defective

 

and

 

needs

 

replacing.
