ok, so I'm getting a tad impatient. in the baggy that it came in was a little sheet of paper, like a mini book. all it had was instructions to connect and wire it. if ANYONE has it, I would jump for joy if you could just tell me what the 3 hot terminals do... I'm sorry if I'm rude, but its frustrating me that my pneumatics parts and manuals keep dissapearing, and that festo's website has no wiring instructions anywhere. remeber if its not the new, smooth, sleek, white plastic single solenoid then its not the festo solenoid I'm talking about... *screams in frustration*

now here is what I know, 1 is input, 3 is exhaust, 2 is output and 4 is output when the solenoid is switched, there are 4 contacts, one is ground (it has a symbol instead of a number to indicate that) and the other 3 are numbered 1,2,3. there is no contact numbered 4. it is a single solenoid so it snaps back to the off position when I release the manual switch or remove power (if I could apply it...). now I have a question, is it possible that what I thought was the the ground contact is actually the hot contact, and that I need to connect ground to the #2 contact and the hot wire to the non-numbered one?
