So i have this RKL Basic and I can not for the life of me figure out where this probe goes. Yes normally i would think the BUS port but this connector type is just wrong. But it’s all DA stuff ... help ???

Mine goes in the top of the sl1. So not the pc4, but the box the ph probe goes in the bottom of. But I can’t remember if mine looks like that...if I ever drag my lazy self out of bed I will check. I had a longggg week.

That is a regular temp probe and requires an SL module to hook up to. The RKL uses an iTemp probe. The only difference is the connector used on the probe. The RKL has a temp port built into the head unit. It uses 2 of the wires in the vuss cable. To use that probe you will need to change out the connector to a buss connector. The two wires in the probe cable will have to be inserted into the correct pin positions on the buss connector. The answer to you questions are in this thread here https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/alternatives-to-digital-aquatics-probes-and-parts.439573/. I don't remember exactly were in the thread we got into the discussion on this but there are some photos.
