I've got a server running the latest FTB Infinity version (1.3.4) and I'm attempting to use Supplier Logitics Pipe to request items from place to another. At the moment though, this doesn't seem to work at all.

This is my current setup just for testing purposes.

The left side chest has 55 Fertilizer in it, right side chest is empty and the Supplier Logistics Pipe is set up like so.

No matter what I change the Request Mode to, I can not get it to transfer any items. I even tried changing Cobblestone Transport Pipes to Basic Logistics Pipes, but still nothing happens.

I've also tried moving the pipes to different sides of the chests, but neither way seems to do anything.

Am I doing something wrong or is this broken?
 
The supplier pipe need to have a registered source to take it from. Simply having a chest with a cobblestone pipe connected to it is not enough. You should attached a Provider Logistic Pipe to the chest that holds the items. This will mark it as a source and register all its items on the LP network.

Also LP networks usually requires power. This depends upon the configs however. So look them over to check if power requirement is set to on or off. If it is on you either need to use one of the Power Prividers or connect it to a ME network(connect a Basic LP pipe to a ME Interface) to let it syphon power from that.

Generally if the pipes have red stripes on them, they are not connected to a LP network or they are not powered. So that is a good cue that you did something wrong.

Also, as your LP network grows, make sure to use Basic LP pipes at every junction(splits/crosses). Without these item routing defaults to BCs random routing and items does not reach its destination. All other places you can use which ever pipe you want. Just whenever there are more than one option in destination, you need a Basic Logistic pipe.

I would probably suggest you look up a guide/spotlight for the LP pipes. I got my introduction to them through a spotlight that DW20 did a while back.
