The case I am using is the STH10, which is one hell of a monster. All cables inside are at least 100cm long. As such, I need REAL long cables, not just mere 70cm in length. I had tried to connect 2 y-splitter cables and 1 4-pins-female-to-4-pins-female cable (the one I purchased from Aquacomputer) together. Then I use them to connect the aquaero 5 xt and the USB Aquabus Flow Sensor to each other, but it FAILED!!!! I could not see “Flow 11” under the sensor tab nor can I see any flow reading on my aquaero 5 xt unit.
Shoggy offered the explanation that the cable combination of “2 y-splitter cables and 1 4-pins-female-to-4-pins-female cable” is too long and will affect the communication between the USB flow sensor and the aquaero 5 xt. I don’t accept this explanation. If this means re-arranging my rig to bring the aquaero 5 xt and the flow sensor closer together to be able to be connected by a shorter wire, I would say DREAM ON to aquacomputer. If anything, it is their products which failed big time. Am I the only one here feeling the rage?!
Next, the Aquaero 5 XT can be connected at a maximum of 4 MPS devices. If the y-splitter cable cannot be used, please enlighten me how the hell you going to connect 2 USB Aquabus pumps, 1 USB Aquabus flow sensor and 1 poweradjust 2 ultra to the aquaero 5 xt? And oh hell, the poweradjust 2 ultra have got the 3-pins male and NOT a 4-pins male; according to manual, you are suppose to connect the 3-pins-female-to-3-pins-female aquacomputer cable (the one that come with your poweradjust 2 ultra purchase) to the 4-pins male high-speed aquabus port on the aquaero 5 xt. How the hell you going to do this and even if you can, how are you going to connect all 4devices to the aquaero 5 xt without using any y-splitter cables?????
I am now sourcing for a Aquacomputer fanboy to sell away all my aquacomputer products. Damn you Aquacomputer! You just robbed me of my precious time, effort, money, and ignite the rage in me! I will never ever touch your products ever again and I will honor my words and spread your notorious products quality to where I came from.
I am not one who drop cash on some premium products and find thrill in wiring them up and troubleshooting them. I am also not one who will just fuxk it, forget it and swallow the idea that the premium products which I bought using good money just happen to malfunction.
The 3-pin cable will connect to the 4-pin Aquabus port without any problem.
Why can't you move your flow sensor closer to the XT?
The total length of aquabus is limited.
When you have to much devices on the aquabus you have to decrase the cable lenght.
The differece between 3 an 4 pin aquabus connections is the power supply.
Wenn you connect a 3 pin cable you have to attach a seperate power supply. When you use the 4 pin cable the device is powered from the aquaero.
Wehn you use Y spliter cables or extensions you have ensure that pins conncted.Some cables connect only 2 of 3 pins.
To find a error you have to diconnect the bus an test each device seperate on the bus. One defect device on the bus can disturb the bus an no device can answer.
This is a bus shematic from us: http://aquacomputer.de/downloads/aquaero5_aquabus.pdf
