Solenoids not activating when energized
We have all of our solenoids wired properly, we think... (we had a pneumatics instructor check our wiring and plumbing and he said it was correct so we're assuming it's good)
SO, we applied direct power to test the system. The solenoid LEDs power on (solid orange) however when we attempt to activate the solenoid nothing happens, no clicking sound, nothing...
When using the 2010 Festo the lights (solid orange with no blinking) switch from one side to the other indicating we are getting power and yes we have 24v powering it
When we use the 2009/2008 Festos (single) we still have a solid light but nothing happens (this has been tested using both 12v and 24v).
If we switch to a manual activation the system performs as expected.
