The only way i can get all 4 pumps to wotk independently is to set the blenny up as 4 separate devices. Is that the right way to do it?

All 4 pumps are independent pumps and each pump has to have their own outputs setup. You can use them in the same schedule if you want though. The schedules are setup under schedules from the left menu. They would have to dispense the same amounts doing that.

This is what i have for schedules. This is just the testing stage.
Does the dosing count divide the total dose bt 2-5 throughout the day? Or does it does the full dose 2-5 times each day?

Here is my All For Reef schedule. I mix my All For Reef at 50% and dose it 4 times a day in sync with my AWC. So dosing happens after the AWC completes. The total dose is total for complete schedule so that would be divided by 4 to get each dose since it doses 4 time during the schedule. That is the dose count. The doser count is the number of dosers but I only run one for All For Reef. If you do multiple pumps per schedule they all will dose the same amount each time but you can set amount of time between each doser as long as it is an even amount since all dosers except for doser 1 would use the same delay amount from the previous doser. I am using a X10 doser here and haveit set to 10ml a minute. the Blenny dosers you would need to set to either 25, 40 or 55 ml a minute since that is their only three speeds. If you use a minus sign in front the dose speed the pumps will run in reverse. This schedule starts at 2:45 AM and finishes at 2.45 AM so the 24 hour period is split into 4 sections of time and the 4 separate doses happen at the beginning of each section of time. Below is also a screenshot of the All For Reef pump output that is controlled by the schedule.
