Sorry about the last reply written before seeing the posted manual.
As Gene points out it is "14" or "4".     But also, my guess is you
need to supply 5 volts to the board via either a power supply or a USB
cable.

One why to debug this is to but a voltmeter on the relay coil and
toggle pin 14.  If one end of the coil is at ground, look at the other
end.
