Assuming that you are using bit0 of the first port. And the whole port
(i.e., all 8 lines) are to be used as output.
You would first need to set this as an output first. If you don't want to
use all 8 lines for output then look up "Linedirection" property
"CWDIO1.Ports.Item(0).Assignment = cwdioOutput"
This actually sets the ouput Voltage
".CWDIO1.lines.Item(0).SingleWrite True"
You should also add a valve/relay driver IC (e.g., ULN2003) between the
CB-68LP board and the valve.
Hope this helps
