Okay, I've picked up some of these (https://www.amazon.com/Kamoer-Peristalti...s_li_ss_tl). Trying to get the first one set up is proving less than intuitive.
It's wired to DC1 on the Lighting & DC Module.
That module is connected to a 12v power source, has a jumper across the DC1 Float, and is connected via CAT6 to the DC Ports and LED Ports on the main controller.
In Reef-pi Drivers, I have the PCA9685 driver loaded as 'Extra Ports'.
In Connectors, I have a Outlet configured (name DC1) utilizing the 'Extra Ports' driver and Port 1.
Under Equipment, I have 'DC-1 Doser' set up using Outlet 1.
I have also tried:
Connecting the pump to DC4 (and moved the jumper to DC4 Fload).
In Connectors, I have a Jack ('DC4') that uses the 'Extra Ports' driver and Pin 4 (active low).
Under Dosers, I have Pump-1, Volume 10 (I was trying a random non-zero value), Type DC Motor, Jack DC4, Pin 4, Status Enabled, Duration 10, Speed 100.
(Note, after finding https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Vko1...=h.2jxsxqh, I also tried Pin 12)
Plugged into the respective port, I can't get the motor to turn on by either enabling the outlet or running the Calibrate function for 10sec/100%.
Some guidance please?
