any paper about that
The Ring Light is a 12V device - it needs to be hooked up to one of the 12V outputs from the PDB - the red and black WAGO connectors - or to a spike if you want on/off control.

Unless you have two Power Converters on your robot, it should only be used with the radio - no other electrical loads can be connected to it, per R44. Using a second one connected to the normal 12V outputs and an appropriately sized breaker would be allowed as a custom circuit, if you needed the 5V output for something.
