I always suggest running the example code on each element as it is wired onto the board. If the example runs, you know that the wiring is correct. If it doesn't, there aren't very many variables.

Also, look for errors in the diagnostic tab on the DS. I spent some time chasing a similar problem. When I finally looked for error messages, we were getting device reference errors. The real problem was a trailing blank in the name going into the set dev ref that wasn't in the get. Almost impossible to see, it doesn't work, and no broken arrow.
