6 pin slide potentiometer?!

6 pin slide potentiometer?!

hey there..

i just purchased two alps slide potentiometers for an umc32 project.. (click).
but when the package arrived today i was kinda confused.
there are 6 pins on each poti. 4 on the one side, 2 on the other..
how do i solder them to the standard ground, 5v and signal?
what’s the direction of the poti? i think the 4 pins are meant to be at the top, but im not sure..

thanks for the help! :open_mouth:

Judging by the diagram it’s a 1,2,3 fader that has double pins. 1 is the 5v, 2 is the variable and 3 is the return.

I think.

that’s what i wasn’t sure about.. will try it. thanks..
so if i put it in place the 1,2 is on the bottom i suppose..
