Wow. Took a while, but with a new job, spare time is hard to come by. At least I won’t be travelling for business (yay!).
Turns out that I had to enable the forward pin by applying +12v. The contactor line-out is also a ground source (so I had to have the contactor supply +12 to the line). Interesting method, not what I’m used to, so it was a surprise.
I’m going to update the diagrams and will post them, just in case someone wants them.
YAY!
