Aquaero LT software sensors

The software sensor tool is now Incorporated into the Aquasuite 2012 (beta 16) itself, So there is no need for a seperate "software sensor tool" & as such AC have pulled the online Link..

I googled "Hardware Monitor" & got several links for the Hardware Monitor software, this being just one http://openhardwaremonitor.org/news/release-version-0-4-0-beta/ You need to ensure that you have the Hardware Monitor start at windows start up & that you have set it up correctly.

With Aida64 (what I'm using) You need to "enable writing sensor values to WMI" from it's "Preferences Menu"( I don't know If it's the same for "Open Hardware Monitor") then choose the Temps you want to relay to the Aquasuite, so the Aquasuite can incorporate the readings from it when the Aquasuite starts.

You then need to "ENABLE" each software sensor in the Aquasuite "SENSORS" Menu >> "SOFTWARE TEMPERATURE SENSORS" (up too eight)...

Hope this helps

Hi Again ...

I just Installed & Ran "Hardware Monitor" & You don't need to set up a WMI like you do in Aida64...

I'll try & explain how I set mine up, So hang on in there ...

Open up the "Open Hardware Monitor" & Under "FILE">>"HARDWARE" I Selected "Motherboard", "CPU" & "GPU" as my choosen Temperature Sensors (You can select "Ram", "Hard drives" also, but remember you can only select a total of 8 temperature Software Sensors from the Aquasuite)

Next, Go too the "OPTIONS" Menu & Again I selected "Start Minimized", "Minimize to Tray", "Minimize on Close" & "Run on Windows Start Up". Thats all I did.

When you set up the Aquaero In the "SOFTWARE TEMPERATURE SENSORS" Menu, You need to "Enable" each of the 8 Sensors in the "MODE" menu from each sensor & you will also need to "Check" the "Use Sensor with Aqua Computer Service" box & then Click on the "SELECT DATASOURCE", Then from the Pop up Window that then gets displayed for each sensor your setting up, you should see a list of Temp Sensor Readings that the "Open Hardware Monitor" is sending to the Aquaero, You then need to select which of the listed Readings you require, Remembering that you can only Select up to 8 in total, One for each Sensor..

Once you've done all that, I would Re-boot the PC & check in the Aquasuite "Software Temperature Sensors" Menu that they readings should now be there & you can now set the upper temperature limit in each of the Software Sensors you earlier selected... ..

I hope I havn't made that too confussing & It helps to sort you out.. I should really Update that review you posted up in your first post

Anyway let me know how you get on, Hopefully you'll get it up & running without any more hassle..Good Luck

Looking at your screenshot I can see that you are still running old beta 14 version, those settings are different on newer versions.

Hi GTBK

As "mm67" has pointed out, you need to update the firmware to the latest "Beta16" as I wrote in my first reply with the "firmware V.1025" http://aquacomputer.de/software.html?file=tl_files/aquacomputer/downloads/aquasuite/aquasuite_2012_setup.exe

You should end up with a "Software sensor" set up screen something like this



You Need to make sure you have the CPU,GPU, HDD e.t.c (or which ever ones you want to monitor) selected in "Open Hardware Monitor", I just listed what I had selected in my previous post to get it too work so I could Advise on how to get things running. As I'd not used Open Hardware Monitor for the Aquaero before ..

Anyway, Update the Aquaero Firmware *with the link above* & you should be good to go. Remember though, That updating to the latest firmware you will not be able to save your present Aquaero settings (Profile). Once you have updated to V.1025 "beta 16" & set everything up as you want again, then you can Save a Profile & it should then be OK to import this newly saved profile with future updates that Aqua Computers bring out in future .. Good Luck

Thanks for the thumbs up

If it takes less than 1A then you can use relay or PWM outputs, I for example have some of these connected to PWM outputs : http://www.aquatuning.co.uk/product_info.php/info/p4685_LED-Flexlight-LowDensity-60cm-UV--36x-SMD-LED-s-.html
