      Unfortunately, we do not have any other boards. Would it be worth it to purchase a new one? Or is there more troubleshooting we could do with the current setup?

        Hi Shannon, thank you again. We were finally able to get a voltmeter and test the connection. There is voltage being applied to the sensors when the channel scanning sketch is running, but the program still says no sensor detected and to check the physical connection. We have tested both sensors. Could there be an issue with continuity? We have our data point at 7 and our power at 22, just making sure that is correct as well.

          Hello, we’ve returned to try and set up the two sensors again but are still running into the issues of both being vacant at every location. We have tried both of them individually and have changed the 3.3v position to the 12v position for the Clarivue sensor. The Hydros is still connected to the 3.3v. We have also changed the sketch for the channel as you suggested. I am attaching pictures of what we have so far up to this point after your suggestions, but we are finding it odd that even the Hydros would show up vacant if the voltage does not matter.

            Here are a few pictures of our setup.

              Thank you so much for the quick response! Could you detail how to make sure we are supplying the 12v to the ClariVue? That being said I am still a bit confused as to why the Hydros 21 would read as vacant when it is the only sensor connected during testing and it would run regardless of the voltage.
