You can scroll through each port turning it on and off by moving the joystick. Look at the screen to see which port is turned on.

Yeah, I did that and everything seems to be okay for the test. #6 just won't turn off even though the code is correct. This is the 2nd time this happened. First time, the problem solved itself somehow w/o me doing anything.

Are you sure you are not overriding the relay port?

No, I am not sure. But I don't think so. I do nothing to the controller before I hit either the feeding or wc mode. I even re-uploaded the code last night to the controller and #6 still didn't recognize the mode. I am thinking tonight I will try to move the ph that's on #6 to an open outlet to test again.

How would I override the relay port? Since I am new I cannot rule that out inadvertently.

PS. I obtained a wifi module that I worked on briefly last night too. I have a few questions but will post a different thread so my questions won't get lost in this. Thanks.
