First Stage Pressure Ports
I'm trying to set up my new equipment, and at the moment I'm connecting my instruments, BC, and dry suit hose to my first stage. I know the instruments goes into the high pressure ports, but I was trying to see if you guys knew whether or not the BC and the dry suit inflator hose go into a high pressure or medium pressure ports? I currently have an Apeks XTX200 Status with 2 HP ports, and 4 medium pressure ports. Any help is appreciated.

Inflators (and second stages) connect to low (or "medium") ports. Only pressure gauges (or sending units) should be connected to HP ports. You should find that the thread/connector sizes are different to help prevent misporting.

I just set up my reg and as Daz said the ports are different sizes to help keep you in the right spots. My only issues were that I ended up moving hoses around after the first dive to get them routed better to suit me without them tangling or hanging up on each other.
