Powering the sensor

According to the manufacturer the sensor needs 12 V / 2 A power supply. The youBot doesn't have a 12 V Output, but it has a 24 V Output. Therefore you can :

  • use a DC / DC converter to convert the youBot 24 V Output to 12V. The DC / DC converter should supply 12 V and at least 24 W or
  • use a 12 V battery to power the sensor

If you also want to purchase a compatible plug for the 24 V Output, consider using a Neutrik NC3MX.
