Re: 2009 Solenoid won't fire

Yes, we have a compressor, air storage tanks, automatic shut-off switch, etc hooked up and running. The solenoid is the only part of the system that I still can't get to work.

The air-carrying part is working right, though, because the manual fire switch still makes the piston go up and down. I'm fairly certain that I have the wiring done correctly according to the festo's guidelines, and it's plugged into the correct module in slot 8 of the cRIO. At this point, I really have no idea where the problem might be, unfortunately.
