Inquiry Regarding Power Supply from NI cDAQ-9178

[Nazi512]

Hi, I was wondering if it would be possible to source a voltage power supply from the NI cDAQ-9178 chassis to power a magnetic RPM sensor with a voltage range of 4.5V - 26V? Additionally, could you kindly advise on which cards I might need to facilitate this?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

You can tap off the power supply of the cDAQ to power your sensor as well.

Thank you for your response. I do need to power the sensor while the cDAQ is operational. Could you please provide guidance on how to safely tap into the cDAQ-9178 chassis power supply to achieve this? Additionally, if there are specific modules or cards required to facilitate this setup.

Literally use the same power supply you are using to power the cDAQ to power the sensor.
