Brakes, have pressure but do not stop

This Yale GLP 080VXNGSE090 has a brake configuration I am not familiar with. Not a basic master cylinder set up.
There is pressure at the pedal, but unit will no stop. If I was dealing with a basic master cylinder, I would think that there was leakage inside. But with this set up, I cannot tell. No visible signs of a leak, no low fluid level and according to the information panel we are building pressure. Can someone suggest a valid starting point. There are lines that run from the master cylinder to the transmission, electric sensor of some sort and a line that runs to a distribution block then on to the wheel cylinders.
Changing the master cylinder is not an option at this time as it is over $1000.00 in cost alone.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
