The OLD school flow sensor needs to be connected to the Aquero 5 on the flow connector. I have seen posts that imply the sensor can be connected to the PA2's but I am not sure. But if a flow sensor is connected to the PA2, the data will show up in AS2012.
Just make sure each PA2 has a unique ID number set through the USB connection and AS 2012.
Yes, the cable you identified will probably work, but try this one first: http://shop.aquacomputer.de/product_info…roducts_id=2847

I'm having a bit of difficulty with my new project, sorry to be a pest with the questions...
Unfortunately the firmware for AE5 LT to be used as a "slave" unit is not ready yet (a fellow forum member tells me in a different thread) so I had to go back to the drawing board.
I have two PA2s connected via Aquabus to an AE5 XT. If I connect an "old school" flow sensor (High Flow G1/4) to the flow sensor header of one of the PA2s will I be able to get the flow reading in Aquasuite 2012?
Also the new flow sensors and pressure sensors, can they be connected to the PA2s Aquabus headers using a cable similar to this one?

Elaborating: The PA2s aquabus headers are only three pin ones so they can't supply +5V if I'm correct, but if I use the PSU to supply the 5V to power the device and the PA2's header just for data will it work?

Yes old school flowmeter will work on PA2 and show up in Aquasuite through the A5XT. I have it working myself. Its not as accurate as the A5 as it doesnt have the filtering of the A5 but it might depend on the flow meter your using.
Im using 2 x Koolance flow meters and the one on the A5 is accurate and the one on the PA2 jumps around quite a bit because it gets false readings (noise) that it cant filter.
Cant help you with the new flow meters but im very tempted to get them myself.![]()
