First of all I wanna say I'm new to this and don't have much knowledge about electronics.
I took over a project for a flight simulator and the group before me bought 3 actuators
K2g05-24v-BR-18 and a power supply s-500-24. What I'm trying to figure out is how to control these actuator using a potentiometer. They don't all run at the same time, so as long as I know how to control one I can control the rest.
I need to be able to control speed and direction where when I move the potentiometer to the right it would go down and when I move it to the left it would go up. Please guys let me know what I need to buy? How would I connect it? And what's the code that I need to write in order for this to work.
There's nothing in your post mentioning any particular arduino or uC. Please specifically what h/w you have (uC) . You might be on the wrong forum. You haven't supplied a datasheet. We're going to need more informaition about your actuator. Have you called Warner Electric to request a datasheet ? Also, I think there is something missing from your part number. We need a photograph (cell phone ok) of the actuator that shows the S/N plate with the model number with good detail. We also need one or two more photos of the actuator from different angles so we can see everything. If you have any documentation we need that. You stated you are new to electronics bu did not state your experience programming. We need to know that in order to communicate with you otherwise it is possible we could tell you exactly what to do and you wouldn't understand a word of it.
