Grove - Slide Potentiometer
The Grove - Slide Potentiometer module incorporates a linear variable resistor with
a maximum resistance of 10KΩ. When you move the slider from one side to the
other, its output voltage will range from 0 V to the Vcc you apply. It connects to the
other Grove modules through a standard 4-Pin
connected to OUT (Pin 1), Vcc (Pin 3) and GND (Pin 4), while the fourth pin (Pin 2) is
connected to a on-board green indicator LED. The LED is used to visually represent
the resistance change on the potentiometer.

- Page 3 Grove - Buzzer module sounds The slide potentiometer can also be used as an ON/OFF switch for any circuit. Take the slider to the Vcc position to switch it ON and move it down to GND to switch OFF a circuit.
- Page 4 LED will also light up. As an HID Device Slide Potentiometer can be an effective Human Interface Device (HID) and can be used, for example, in the radio controller of a Radio Controlled toy car. The picture below shows two Slide Potentiometers on the control panel - one to control the speed of the left wheel, and the other to control the speed of the right wheel of the toy car respectively.
