Only 8 Relays Working
#2
#1 Looks like a bug. I will look for a fix and report back here.

If you need to run the stations manually you can also use the Run Once menu item until manual mode is fixed. I tested Run Once with your configuration and it does stop the master.

#2 should work with up to 12 stations with the relay_board plugin. I guess you have looked through the documentation:
https://github.com/KanyonKris/relay_board/wiki

Double check the wiring. Also be sure 12 relays is selected on the relay_board plugin setup page.

Another option is to use shift registers as described in the SIP documentation:
https://github.com/Dan-in-CA/SIP/wiki/Relay-interface

This requires getting some parts and building the interface which will take a little time but it can allow 16 or more relays to be used and does not require a plugin.

if you need to use all 16 relay channels it may also be possible to modify the relay_board plugin to handle 16 relays. I will look into that after fixing #1. Of course that option is limited by the number of GPIO pins on the Pi and would not work with all models.
