Adjusting Trimmer Pots on Pololu 4988
October 11, 2013 10:17PM
Hey All. So I'm building RichRaps 3DR Printer and was wondering if any of you guys could help me and show me/teach me/explain to me how to adjust the Pololu 4988 trimmer pot, so I can get my 3DR Printer up and running. I have the Sparkfun VC830L Digital Multimeter if that helps with anything...I really would appreciate it if anyone could provide me with any help! Thanks so much!

Put one lead on the negative (ground) input on your power connector (easier than trying to find on the pololu - and safer!) then the other lead directly on the trimpot. Adjust the trimpot to about 0.4v initially and check the motor operation.
