Either post this in the RC Neptune forum or email Kurt, both will probably get you a pretty quick answer.

this is what it states in the manual:

Web Interface:
Configuration – Module Setup – Verify the VDM is listed in the Apex Module List. Also 6
outlets are automatically created which can be configured Configuration – Outlet Setup. The initial

names of the VDM outlets are VarSpd1_X_1 to VarSpd4_X_4, BluLED_X_5, and WhtLED_X_6.

When the VDM is installed the Apex automatically installs 4 variable speed outlets (named VarSpd1_X_1 to
VarSpd1_X_4) that can be used to control Tunze Streams Pumps or lighting ballasts with 0-10V variable
intensity features. Also it automatically adds two lights (to the system to support the Aqua Illuminations
interface). The default names for the LED lights are BluLED_X_5 and WhtLED_X_6 for the blue and white LEDs
respectively.

It says nothing about a royal blue outlet.

Did you update your main control first? I'm running 4.10_6D11. Then ran the "update firmware" for the VDM module.. it just worked for me.

I have found the solution to my problem; although I'm not at home and doing this all from work so I can't physically see the lights.

It turns out the third blue outlet that has been missing is at the very bottom of my outlet list. it does not appear in order with the White and Blue.

I hope this helps the other fellow who said he was in the same boat.

Also Brad, thank you very much for your help. It's greatly appreciated.

Oh, right. It won't be in order, it gets added to the bottom
