    I have these Hall Sensors in my 6DOF :

    Bi Technologies/Tt Electronics - 6127v1a180l.5fs - Sensor, Hall

    i just want to know if i can power up all of these with a single power cable (GND + 5V) so i can route the single "Vout" signal individually to the arduinos.

    at the moment there is a 2 PIN 24V cable to the motor and a a standard 3 phase audio jack plug for each hall sensor.

    i want to use a 3 phase cold appliance plug instead, so i can bundle all signals from motor in a single cable.
    2 pins for + and - and the originally ground pin for the vout signal from the hall.

    is that possible or does it cause problems if i power all halls with one power line, or to route the hall signal between the 24v cables ?

    like so:

    should be fine - you may need to share the gnd wire with the arduino
