Just bought a used RKE and it did not have a SID. Does anyone know if I can program/update my modules without the SID? I do have a NET module, if that matters.

You will need the SID to program your RKE... also recommend the read threads on the digital Aquatics web site. You will need to date up each one just to make sure you have the current firmware for each module. Starting with the SID itself them moving through the other as you see fit. I have an RKE on my tank running two PC4 and a SL1 module. You will find the RKE an awesome controller for your tank, its possible are almost endless... again almost ;-) if you have any question hit me up. I've been through a few issues with it, but were easily fixed.

I would make the Net Module the last addition to your system, its a good to have but not a necessity to better control your tank.

On my system my next module is the SL2, then looking to MLC and APC. As you learn about this system you will see what works best for you as you add on... enjoy the build...
