Sanki Notes

    • Position (Black : Blue)

    • Black Up : 4700 Ohm to 5V and to Pin A0

    • Blue Up : 100 Ohm to 5V

    • Black and Blue Down to GND

Examples

This example is Read A) and Range 200 to 950 (1 Inch Around )

            1. /*

            2. AnalogReadSerial

            3. Reads an analog input on pin 0, prints the result to the serial monitor.

            4. Attach the center pin of a potentiometer to pin A0, and the outside pins to +5V and ground.

            5. This example code is in the public domain.
