Programming Spikes

I have two spikes, both are connected to the board, one on relay1, and the other on relay2. I want it to stay turned on when a button is pressed, but that is something I can do, however, how do I get the relay to turn on, and get the spike to turn on, and then get the globe motors attached to them to turn on?

Re: Programming Spikes

make sure that each set of relays is set like:

relay1_fwd = 1;
relay1_rev = 0;

and then just make sure that all the wiring is correct.

This is probably where my mistake is. I set just relay1_fwd to 1.
