{% hint style="warning" %}
\*The linear taper of this potentiometer means that the resistance changes linearly with the angle of the shaft. However, the linearity can be significantly affected by connected circuitry. Please see the Application Examples for more information.

## Pinout and Schematic&#x20;

The Potentiometer only sends signal to the hub through the **n** port, which means during configuration the potentiometer will need to be assigned to port 0 or port 2. This limitation means that two potentiometers can not be hosted on the same physical port using the sensor splitter cable.&#x20;

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.revrobotics.com/rev-crossover-products/sensors/potentiometer/specifications.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
