 		 #187689 - DAC and pot in parallel?
Responding to: Richard Erlacher's previous message
Richard Erlacher said:
HI wanted to use the DAC's in place of some of the pot's but in parallel with them, so the instrument could be driven by software if desired, but could also be hand-operated.

Doesn't sound easy to have a DAC and a pot in parallel.

You didn't consider using a rotary encoder to allow you manual control of the DAC?
