Re: Maxbotix range ultrasonic range sensor problems??

Does this sensor get power from the PWM cables or is there an additional power line that needs to be run from the PDB to the CRio?

Thanks

The 5 volts from the digital I/O pins would be sufficient.

The center pin of the Analog Breakout provides +5 volts, so, assuming you have it wired correctly, it has all the power it needs.
