Clarification help

We have tried to run the example single solenoid vi, but there is no light on festo valve, however there is light on the solenoid led. When we accidently plugged the wire into the digital side car for the light bulb, it was blinking, so we went back to the diagram for electrical wiring and saw that the diagram states to connect the solenoid to the power supply board next to where you give power to the cRIO, so we did that, but no power led goes on the solenoid. Now when we looked at the programming diagram from NI, it said to connect it to 12v, did we do something wrong?

We checked the locations we put for solenoid, which is the default, slot 8, and we plugged festo wire into slot 8, we used the 2 slot cable instead of the pwm.

Now another question is should instead of connecting the festo to the solenoid should we connect the festo to the digital side car....how would i proceed to do that?
