cRIO Total Power Consumption
I can't seem to located a spec sheet on the cRIO 24VDC power consumption. We'd like to use the dedicated 24 VDC power from the power distribution panel to power 24 VDC to the pneumatic bumper for some valves.

Knowing the power board can produce about 1.5 Amps of 24 vdc, we also need to know how much of that 1.5 Amps does the cRIO need to determine what is the available power left for the pneumatic bumper power header.

Does anyone have the cRIO FLA or Amperage draw on the 24 vdc?
