The DS-LED-DISP-VGPS can be directly connected to the IMU1 or IMU2. From both devices, the display draws the power from the USB port. It requires a 5V power supply and because the consumption is very low it can be connected to the IMU device without any problem. Be very careful to connect the display only to +5V. Otherwise, if the display is connected to a higher voltage it will be damaged.
