Hello to all the Members,
Here is a Potentiometer which i Intend to use as a Volume control for my Pre-Amp based on LM1036 Chip. It is a 50K ALPS Motorized pot, since it has four terminals, it is unusually strange for me because i got my hands on such type of POT for the first time
I have attached the pictures of the Motorized POT with this post.
Now to the Trouble, When i use a Usual 50K Pot (The one beside the ALPS pot in the picture), the volume control seems to work fine, the sound level gradually rises as i rotate the Pot control. However now when i replace the usual pot to ALPS pot, the volume control acts differently in such a manner that until 50% rotation of the ALPS POT there is No Sound at all, the sound level rises gradually only after 50% rotation of the pot. I dont Understand why this would happen even though both of the Pots are of the same value (50K).
The connections i do on the ALPS pot is same as i do on the usual pot, about the fourth Pin, i keep it Disconnected.
I will deeply appreciate any Kind of Help.
Thank you & Best Regards,
SLAK
