The ethernet camera is powered illegally in this drawing.

Quote:
R32 The Wireless Bridge power must be supplied by the 5V 2A (“Radio”) output of a Cross the Road Electronics Voltage Regulator
Module (VRM) (P/N: am-2857, 217-4245) and must be the only load connected to those terminals.
The ethernet camera is another electrical load connected to those terminals.

It would be legal to use the device used to power the radio in recent years(grey metal heatsink-looking thing with 4 wires) off the 12v2A side of the VRM to power the camera. If you are doing this, I personally recommend powering your PCM(if using) off a wago slot on the PDP due to the current draw of compressor, solenoids, radio, and camera with the 20A fuse. You don't want any chance of your radio going out.

It would also be legal to use a second VRM for the camera.

It would also be legal to use some other custom circuit off the wagos on the PDP, such as this: http://www.adafruit.com/products/1385 to power the camera

Other than that(which is really a minor thing), really great informative picture!
