Ok so all my vdm ports are taken except the 9 pin din serial port. I was searching the net for a while now if it is possible to wire up a 9 pin din connection to DIY leds to control them, or maybe even pumps like the we do the rj45 ports.

The serial port is only for use with AI Sols, Apex-Ready Acan Lighting LEDs, and Apex-Ready Zetlight fixtures. It does not use varying voltages to control dimming. Instead, commands are sent, equivalent to things like "Set the white channel to 75%" and "Do a burst of lightning". To use the VDM serial port with anything else, you'd have to design and make an interface which understands the communications protocol used.
