I am new in electronic therefore please bear with me about my explaination.
I have a LCD display made by TGK model TM12864L, please see manual and diagram attached.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/71681740/TM12864L-1-TGK-manual.pdf
It requires a potentiometer connect to pin 3 and pin 18 of the LCD.
- pin 3 is Vo ( operating voltage )
- pin 18 is Vout ( negative voltage output )
The potentiometer diagram shows: Vo connects to the middle wiper, Vdd and Vout connect to the other 2 legs.
The manual also indicates: Vlcd – Vo = – 4.7 Volt
I am really confused which leg of the potentiometer should connect to pin 3 and pin 18 and where the other leg should connect to ?
Many thanks for your help.

The bottom left corner of section 4 of the datasheet explains how to connect the pot to VOUT, VDD, and V0.
