Exclamation Relay Problems

i put an attatchment of the program i used. I tried to wire 2 buttons to 1 relay. On the digital i can see the green led turn on when 1 trigger is pressed and the red led turn on when the other button is pressed but the relay does not change its state. It will only turn red on the relay. Also my probes are not working. I probed a wire and the window pops up but when i press the second button the state of the probe does not change even though the relay turns red. Can anyone help?

Re: Relay Problems

are you sure the whole thing is running? is the main case structure there turning to the state it needs to be in?

Re: Relay Problems

As Burmeister stated, you might be probing the wrong spot. For example, if you put two probes on the same wire, one before a case structure and one in it, the one outside will always read, but the one inside will only read if that case is active. Else, it will display a greyed-out control. You should try probing the relay in different places, one preferably outside of that case structure. This should get it to read out properly.
