Hi Everyone. Would like to get an idea on how to install this smart buddy to my two stage RO/DI system. As this is so confusing. I'm not savvy in this area and there's one is available to help me out at this time. Would like to see if I can do it myself for once. Here are pics of my set. Your help is greatly appreciated. Any ideas?

I have 2 of these systems. I will see if I can get pics soon. Essentially there are 6 connections 3 on top and 3 on the bottom but they are all in and out so you only need to cut your lines in 3 places.

The supply line gets cut after the prefilters and before the membrane and then connects to the supply in and out ports. The waste line needs the flow restrictor removed and then it is connected to the proper in and out ports. The product water line after the DI connects to the final in and out ports. If you have an ASO valve you will also need to remove it for installation. Aquaticlife has an excellent video showing the install.

The yellow line is what got my mind boggledsince it wasn't installed at the initial setup.
