I have 3 linear pots that I need to interface with a PC. When I turn a pot, my software should detect it and react accordingly based on the value returned. So far, I haven't had any luck. I'm using the 74HC14 Hex Schmitt Inverter to generate a pulse that my software can detect. The circuit I'm using is attached. I just can't get it to work. I'm using 100k pots and the unmarked caps are 10 uF. I am a novice at electronics, but trying to learn.
Any ideas (or alternative methods)? I have no joystick port and adding one is not a possibility, so rule that one out.
Thanks
