=A Quick Guide to AE2=
This guide will only focus on item storage and autocrafting through AE2 and the foundations of a simple Matter Energy (ME) network, but please note that AE2 is not limited to just this purpose. It is possible to transport energy, fluids, vis, redstone signals, light, and even space. It can do all these things cross-dimensionally on top of this!
 
A guide to [[Chemistry Automation]] exists as well.
==Channels==
Most, but not all, AE2 devices require a channel before it will turn on.
Line 46 ⟶ 47:
Cable anchors can also be used to prevent same-colored cables from connecting to each other.
 
=== P2P Tunnels ===
P2P tunnels can carry items or fluids from one place to another without showing up on the rest of the network. In addition, they can bundle network channels to carry more channels from one point to another across a separate transport network. Details here http://blog.mcmodguides.com/applied-energistics-2-part-2-cable-management/#P2P_Tunnels
 
You may use [[fluid_P2P_tunnels]] to transport fluids at unlimited rate.
==Terminals==
* A regular terminal will allow the manual insertion/extraction of items into/from the ME network.
Line 128 ⟶ 133:
1 EU = 2 AE
 
Right clicking with an AE2 Network Tool onto any part of your ME system gives a detailed overview about the components in your system and their energy drain. Clicking the top-left button will further convert the default AE units into EU for ease of reading (since this pack mainly deals with Gregtech EU). OneThe thinglist tobelow notegives isan thatapproximate GT:NH alters the energyEU drain reportedfor by the AE network tool overview. Because of this, anyeach component in the tool's UI overview list actually has an EU drain multiplied by 10. The total drain listed at the bottom of the tool UI, however, is correct and does not need any extra multiplicationAE2.
 
[[File:Energydrain.png|thumb|The UI when right clicking with an AE2 network tool. The bottom correctly lists the total energy drain of your AE network. Notice the drain reported for the individual Controller. It is actually 30 EU/t, not 3 EU/t]]
 
The list below gives an approximate EU drain for each component in AE2.
==Devices==
* Controller = 15 EU/t
