I just added a relay expansion module and relay box. Got it working ok. The additional relays show up on the portal but if I try to turn them on and off via the portal it doesnt work. Ideas?

Do they work using smart phone app?

I don't know, I dont have a smart phone

What happens when you turn them on/off on the portal?

If I turn off a port via the portal that is connected to a light, I can hear the box click and the lights will blink. Its as if they turn off and back on.

I'm looking at the data on the server and it looks like you have a bad temperature probe.
It's showing 185.

I noticed that. I added an extension to the probe and I think that's when I started getting that reading. I was having the issue with the portal prior to adding the extension though.

I might have figured it out. If the light schedule has the lights off then I can turn them on and off via the portal. If the lights are on following the programmed schedule and I try to turn them off via the portal, they go off then back on almost instantly (hence the blink). I'm thinking that since the schedule is located in the loop section, once you turn them off the loop programming executes and turns them back on. Sound logical?
