    Hi, I'm using arduino, moto monster, SMC3and simtools. I have a small problem where my potentiometer is 270 degrees and I only want a movement of around 110 degrees. Can you change the range of the pot in SMC3 or simtools?

    You can reduce the movement range in simtools

    Have you tried the sinewave output in smc3 ?
