Open loop control with potentiometer feature

Is it possible to change the starting direction in open-loop control? Can I adjust the initial parameters based on the potentiometer value? Where can I configure this?

Hello TKara.2,

You can easily revert the starting direction by inputting a negative Speed Reference value to your command (both on Pilot and via APIs). Also, simply inverting two motor phases works.

Concerning the Potentiometer, I'm afraid this feature is only meant to be used in Closed Loop, but you can take it as a starting point to implement an open loop version yourself.
