NEW: aquaero 5 series

[Shoggy]

You don't have to worry about the aquabus/USB thing. Just forget it because it is wrong.

The poweradjust 2 was developed with the aquaero 5 in mind so it can be fully controlled through the aquabus. Using it together with USB at the same time would not even work. The only USB connection that you need is for the aquaero.

Since everything is connected via aquabus it will work immediately when you start the PC. Each poweradjust controllers integrates to the aquaero as an additional fan channel, temperature and flow input with all its controlling and monitoring options.

Wiring of everything is also very easy:

USB => aquaero => High-Speed aquabus => poweradjust #1 => aquabus => poweradjust #2 and so on up to no. 6. Each poweradjust comes with the necessary cable and the PCB has two aquabus interface ports so you can go from one controller to the next controller. For the tubemeter you have a problem since you can only connect one of them! It connects to the Low-Speed aquabus on the aquaero. The second tubemeter can be used with USB but there is no way that it will communicate with the aquaero.

All temperature sensors can be connected directly to the aquaero. If it makes more sense for you because of different distances you can also connect a sensor the poweradjust.

Not quite sure why you have ordered another internal USB cable. The aquaero, each poweradjust and tubemeter already includes one

@jasoncrowley: I don't think so.
