Re: New Festo valve 24v?
If you look in the diagram, there are three sheets. You will see that in the sheet that shows how to wire for 12V AND 24V solenoids that there are TWO (2) NI9472 modules instead of just one. One (1) is wired to the regular 12V 30A max connections. The other one (1) module is wired to the 24V connection, the same connection that you wire the cRio to. If you just want to wire up for 24V you won't need to wire up one of the NI9472 for a 12V connection, and vise versa if you only need to do it for a 12V connection.

Take a good look at the diagrams they updated, and just pay close attention to where the wires lead to.
