Trouble with dosing pumps: have I run out of sockets?

I purchased a 4-pump prof. dosing pump unit and tried to install it today. I've plugged the unit into its own power supply, but have connected the 4-pump dosing unit into the profilux through the S-5through8 jack.

The "com" light isn't on, which I expect is a consequence of not plugging it into a digital power bar.

So: here's where I've run into difficulties:

S1 is Redox 1 increase (ozone reactor and air pump)
S2 is water top off.
S3 is heater linked to temp probe
S4 is moon lights
S5 is florescents
S6 is halides
S7 is now dosing pump 1 (calcium)
S8 is now dosing pump 2 (alkalinity)
S9 would like to be magnesium
S10 would like to be phytoplex

I can get S7 and S8 to function for the dosing pumps, but not S9 and S10.

Have I run out of room?

With thanks,

Erik
 
S5 and S6 are double: fluorescent + MH at the powerbar, pump 1 and 2 at the dosing unit

solution:
- program the dosing unit with start number 7
- connect it to the powerbar

result:
- sockets 1-6 are sockets of your powerbar
- "sockets" 7- 10 are the dosing pumps
 
Matthias, it worked...

Matthias, it worked...

It worked! Many thanks, Matthias, for your quick and effective help. It never occured to me to plug the jack into the powerbar itself.

Phew. :)
