    Hi guys
    Looking at doing some setup and testing on a mock up board this weekend.
    Was looking for any info on setup for hall effect pots and the arduino uno board,do they wire up to the original pins as per 10 k pots or is there a completely different procedure.
    Any help ss usual would be much appreciated

    You should be able to treat Hall sensors as drop in replacements for post, with the benefit of direct connection, nit breaking if over rotated, great resolution and long life span. Just make sure you have polarity correct.
