Quick explanation. I have full blown apex 2016 on my display in living room. Set up a 30L in another room and have mixing station under stairs in yet another room. Would like to use a pm1 and energy bar on my 30L and some various equipment for my mixing station but let’s just stick with the 30L.
it would be nice if I could install the PM1 (even if it needed power) and have a wireless “APEX USB Dongle thingy” to plug into the PM1 and the main brain and control it through fusion. Have them connect wirelessly without running the apex usb hard line.
I know I can run the hard cable but accessis all but not doable where both tanks are located, not to mention the mixing station. @NeptunePaul @Terence have y’all toyed around with this?
 
I don’t think there is any dongle, maybe a second head unit with a wireless access point?@SuncrestReef might know
 
No I mean something that would work like a WXM and communicate wirelessly with another module that’s in another room. I know I can get another brain and all that jazz but was just thinking outside the norm

Not gonna happen. They want you to buy another unit . Something like this makes too much sense.
