Coralux LED meanwell driver board setup
#1
Photo 
I have a new fully assembled Robo-tank that I am setting up my LED lighting with.
I believe I have my Reef-Pi up and running correctly.
I am trying to get my 0-10volt PWM jacks to operate.
I am using a 12 volt 20 amp supply.
I will use channels of 5 to 8 LED's, each on a separate schedule.
Currently I am getting no output through to the drivers.
It must be something simple that I am missing.
Any help on LED's, Reef-Pi or my Robo-tank would be appreciated.
Has anyone used this driver board on a Robo-Tank controller?

Hi Jeffer, looks like you're using the manuals for v1 controller, the pinout has all changed. Here's the manual showing which pins to use for the LED ports.

I also don't see any jumpers added to the signal type, without a jumper it'll be a 0-10v signal going into the driver board, I believe those only use 0-5v so add that otherwise it could be damaged.

If you want to run the install script to sort out the connectors here it is, doing this you would lose all settings.

That worked like a charm!
I added the new pin configuration and jumpers for 0-5 Volt.
That script make it so much easier.
I do wish I could navigate the manuals for the correct revision better.
I am on my way to a great project, Thanks.

Good to hear. I do need to do something about the manuals, this is happening to quite a few, here's the main page for them, anything with version 1 you can ignore.
