    New system set up

    So ive just purchased a new apex 2016 base unit and some add ons
    par system
    lunar simulator module and leds
    advanced leak detection module and probes (solid and under carpet)
    flow sensor
    feeding system

    My first problem is that there are more usb plugs from these add ons than there are ports, will I need to purchase an additional base unit or module?
    My Australian adapted energy bar has no usb ports at all only pug in sockets.

    any advise would be greatly appreciated.

    I've yet to attempt install on said unit.

    Look closer on the energy bar. There are aquabus ports on the side.

    You do not need to connect each module to the head unit directly. You can daisy chain the aquabus any way you want (as long as you dont use an extra cable and make a loop). For example, the energy bar could connect to the brain, which then connects to your LDK, and the LDK then connects to the feeder, etc. You can make one daisy chain, or multiple.
