As long as you were using the NPN version of the sensor (the model number you gave says it is) then I don't think you got any 12V into the DIO input so you should be OK there. You may need to look at the wiring to the sensor to see if there is a frame short there. I don't think the DSC is the source of the short but I could be wrong.
