How to use Yanfly's Ace Equip Engine

So I kind of feel like an idiot for asking, but how exactly do i use this script. I feel like the reason why it is not working is something on my end rather than something with the script. But what I am currently doing is this.

I am attempting to make a secondary armor thing unique to each character similar to the equipment in tales of graces.

And what I currently have is a item in the armors tab slot 64 called Rune Sheath.

in the note box I have <equip type: 7 >

in the script I have 7 => [   "Sheath",       true,      true],

and in my actors note box I have

<equip slots>
Weapon
Sheath
Headgear
Bodygear
Accessory
Necklace
</equip slots>
 

When I have the Item in my inventory It doesn't show up under sheath. nor can I equip it. I confused on how exactly I am supposed to do this as this is what it seemed like I was supposed to do from the instructions.

Tell me does the equip slot exist for the character in game?

edit:

change this: <equip type: 7 >

to this        : <equip type: 7>

Now it is sort of working. The Rune Sheath is now appearing in the item menu under sheath. however I am still unable to equip it to my character. and he does have the sheath slot appear in game.

that's weird. I tested it and it is working. Upload a demo and i'll try to see what went wrong. 

EDIT:

Does the Rune Sheath appear in the equip menu?

If it doesn't then you need to set the armor type for the armor in the database to something that the actor can use.  

That usually means the item you want to equip isn't configured for the slot where you want it, or that the actor is missing the feature giving him the access to the item.
How does your armor notetag look like?

under the armors tab

Name: Rune Sheath

Armor Type: General Armor

Price: 0

Equip Type: Body

in the note box

<equip type: 7>

In the script I have

7 => [   "Sheath",       true,      true],

In the actor I have

<equip slots>

Weapon

Sheath

Headgear

Bodygear

Accessory

Necklace

</equip slots>

 

The actor has the appropriate slots in game. and the Item when I buy it from a shop appears under sheath and general armor. But I can not equip it.
