Potential DSC Damage

Now if you had routed the 12V to the DIO or +5V pins then damage might occur. Be advised, the DIO input pin connects straight to the cRIO DIO module through the 37 pin cable.

All 3 lights on the DSC are still lit.

The 12V and GND lines of the sensors were never connected to the DSC.
