Help me understand DC 1,2,3 vs 4,5,6,7
#2
Hi Phil, in reef-pi outlets are to control any outputs via on/off and Jacks are used to control PWM outputs.

The DC ports are controlled via PWM pins so they can be added as an outlet or jack depending on what you're doing.

DC ports are good for dosing pumps, that's why I configured DC 4 - 7 as Jacks. Dosing pump and light module in reef-pi can only use Jacks.

So all you need to do is delete the Jacks and add back as outlets, then you can use them on the equipment tab.

Before deleting connectors always make sure it's not be used in reef-pi. For example if you have DC 1 on equipment tab and wanted to change as a Jack, first delete DC 1 from equipment then it's safe to delete from connectors.

Any time you make changes to connectors or anything on "configuration" tab you need to go to "admin" tab and press the "reload" button.
