I'm working on a circuit and I'm doing some testing. I'm basically following a set of directions. I'm unsure what the directions mean and I'm hoping someone here can help me with it.
I'm using a voltmeter on a 3-prong 10k potentiometer, The directions say the following: "a digital voltmeter should be connected across the potentiometer top and bottom (not the wiper)"
I'm not sure what it means by top and bottom. The pot has three prongs. Anyone know what this terminology means?
Thanks
Steve
