Re: 5 Volt PD Board Splicing

Brandon,
There is no place for a 5 volt power supply input to the analog breakout board. The power input to this breakout is required to be wired to a 12 volt output on the PD. There is a 5 volt supply on this module that will produce 5 volts when correctly wired to the 12 volt supply. While the analog breakout can connect to sensors that vary between zero and 5 volts, those are not power inputs.
