can we still use the CPR-360?

It won't do that very well, if at all.

Based on earlier posts about a 12V sensor, I think the proper solution is a very simple custom circuit: use two resistors to make a voltage divider.

Connect the output of the sensor to one end a 1.5 kilohm resistor. Connect the other end of the 1.5k resistor to the roboRIO's signal input pin, and also to one end of a 1 kilohm resistor. Connect the other end of the 1k resistor to the negative pin on the roboRIO's input. When the sensor supplies 12 volts, the roboRIO will see approximately 4.8 volts.
