Hello all,
I am caught in a project that I am certain will seem laughable to most of you, but I am at a loss as to what I need.
I have installed linear actuators on a project, they each have an on board 10K pot built into them. I need a small inexpensive panel display to give a number value to track the location of the actuator. (not necessarily any scale, can be an arbitrary number, its just a reference) I bought a device I was told would do the job, (actually two of them because I have 2 actuators.) I can not get them to work and the company has been absolutely no help at all. I am not opposed to changing to a different device, but would rather not throw away a bunch more money.

This is the device I bought, but it shows it accepts 0 - 375 Ohms. Is there a way I can make this work, or is there something better suited.
I do already have the holes cut in the panel, so something the same size would be awesome!
Thank you for any help you can give me.
Best,
Ben
