Can anyone here confirm?
Yes, there is a little green LED on the DSC right next to the output for the RSL power leads.

I'm starting to run out of ideas here. Theres a rare possibility that you have two bad DSC's maybe? it sounds like you have two control systems, maybe build the benchtop system with the second system, and see if that works?

It also looks like you are running some pretty thin wire to power your DSC. Maybe try something thicker? i believe that i use 16AWG on ours. I reccomend doing the same thing on your Analog Breakout. The wire you are using on that is meant for pneumatics.
