Re: Powering Arduino

We used 6v from the servo power supply through Arduino's vin.

You can use the PD board 5v supply if you would like:

All circuits, with the exceptions of those listed in R42 and R45, must connect to, and have power sourced solely by, a single protected 12VDC WAGO connector pair (i.e. the Load Terminals, as shown in Figure 4-11) or the 5VDC supply on the PD Board (as shown in Figure 4-12), not the M6 shanks.
You can't use the cRio or radio supply though.
