    I've got a K8055, 10K pot and a small dc motor connected to a sabertooth controller. In the K8055 demo program I can see the pot values change and can also control the motor. In Profiler I set up an axis and can see the 'Current Real Value' change as I rotate the pot, but when I run the Test Plugin and move the slider the motor does not respond.
    If I got to 'Interface Settings' I can type in a motor percentage and it responds fine.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Dave

    Fixed it. I had the profile wrong.
