Help triggering Pneumatic

So we have a SMC SY3000 series solenoid wired to ports 1 and 2 on the cRio. There is only one red light lit at a time, and when we press the trigger, it changes to the other one. The problem is that the pneumatic that we have attached to it doesn't fire. We have checked pushing the orange buttons on the solenoid, and that works just fine. What are we doing wrong?
