set up dc port 1 to dose v1 controller - zstreetreef - 08-02-2022
I have been trying to get dc port 1 to run a dosing pump on the v1 controller. I change the dc port 1 from outlet to jack using the same pin and did a reload in the admin. Still not running. I tested the pump to make sure it works and it does. Dc ports 4,5,6,7 are being used which they work great dosing. help. Using reef_pi.

Hi zstreetreef, have you added a jumper to the backup float switch port? DC1, DC2 and DC3 have one of these, if no jumper is installed the ports won't work, here's a page explaining them.
