Farbwerk via 4 pin aquabus.

Saturday, July 23rd 2016, 6:45pm

Hello all, first post so be gentle.

I have my farbwerk (non Bluetooth) hooked up to my 6XT using the aquabus connectors on my real time clock module. However without a USB plug I have no control over the unit, only the ability to send it sensor information that works.

I was wondering if this is a intended feature or I'm not quite good enough on aquasuite to figure it out. I made a led controller in the 6XT controller page and assigned outputs correctly, but the controller simply doesn't respond.

Thanks for any help you can provide :)

P.S device ID 20 as suggested by AC themselves. Not conflict there

You need to connect the Farbwerk via USB first and then set the Input-Signal to "Aquabus". Then you should be able to let the Aquaero control the Farbwerk :)

To be a bit more precise: in the controller tab you have to change the mode for every channel to be controlled by an external source.

Thanks for the assistance, in my haste to get the wiring done I unplugged the USB that I had been using, without thinking of setting changes which would have to occur first. I'll report back tomorrow and close the thread when resolved :)
