Default rodi automatic shut off

Well I finnaly got my kitchen back toghter and now am running the rodi hoses to my fresh water tank. But I have run into some problems.

I bought a coralife pure-floII float and automatic shutoff valve kit, and I will be using a buckeye field supply rodi. I think I have the correct hoses picked out as 1 set of them should be the rodi water going from the rodi to the float valve, and the other one should be the one going into the di filter from the last stage of filtration, but I can't seem to make the waste water stop flowing.


I have the whole thing sitting on the kitchen floor besides of the sink so I'm not making to big of a mess but still......

But still I have a couple of questions, have I choosen the right hoses? Since the instructions are hard to understand and the pictures suck, inside of the valve (when looking threw it) one is unrestricted ( you can see threw it) and the other has some kind of blockage ( can't see threw it) witch one is the rodi water going to the tank? I have swapped the hose from top to bottom and all I semed to do is stop making rodi water but not the waste. ( I think rodi water is the straight threw one)

I have installed the check valve in the di canister. The water pressure gauge on the rodi reads 55-60 psi, when I have it up and running while I'm messing around with it.


I'm not sure what I have done wrong, I can try and upload some pics it that helps but that wont be till tomorrow.

Thanks
