Ok, first off, I had NO IDEA where to put this topic on the forums, so I apologize in advanced if I chose the wrong category.
I was wondering if it was possible to do this for power and serial connections:
USB: +5v +tx +rx -grd Power supply: +12v -grd

Ard.Unor3: tx/1 rx/0 Grd Vin
/\ /\ (or vice versa)
wow, that looks different now. incase you dont understand that:
USB +5v -> x
USB +tx -> Arduino rx
USB +rx -> Arduino tx
USB Gnd -> Arduino Gnd
Power +12v -> Arduino Vin
Power Gnd -> Arduino Gnd
SweetEpicDude1:
USB +5v -> x
USB +tx -> Arduino rx
What is USB +tx? USB signals are D+, D- and they ARE NOT compatible with Arduino TX, RX (pins 0,1).
A USB (4wire) has VCC, D+, D-, GND
chuck.

To avoid misunderstanding I think you should make a pencil drawing of your circuit and post a photo of the drawing.
It is very easy to misunderstand written descriptions because we are all prone to jumping to conclusions based on how we do things ourselves.

Ok, then I am assuming 5 wire with common ground or 6 wires with separate grounds will work with a USB type b male on the USB pins?
What are you trying to do? None of this makes sense.

Hi,

The USB of the arduino does not connect directly to the controller, there is a USB to Serial system in between.

So a USB to TTL converter like this:
Would work with vin, grd, tx, rx? Right? I am using UNO R3.
