Will there be a new edition of Aquasuite ? I have the Aquastream Ultra pump.
Heya shoggy
Great products you guys are rolling out but i do have a complaint to make. This being my pre-order for a aquaro XT controller still no where to be seen. I have had my pre-order pushed back for a third time and it is getting really annoying having to wait without a close confirmation date.
How do you control the pwm fan channel 4?
I have 2 swiftech 35X hooked up to it using a pwm y cable, and the readings are going crazy.... I cant seem to figure out how to regulate the pump speed. Any tips?
nice!
nice!!
I'm interested in this as I'll be hooking up my MCP35x2 to my Aquaero 5 soon...Quote:

It might be possible that your pumps use a different range for the frequency. Normally PWM within the PC is standardized but we already saw pumps and fans which work in another range and can not be controlled with the aquaero or only within a limited range.Quote:

Once setup, you can link Ch4 to a temp sensor to automatically regulate the pumps. You can also individually link them to the Fail safe. Set it to trigger an alarm or shut the system down when a pump fails.
Viewing screen shot will make things more clear:

Here's a pic of the pumps (Fan 3 & 4) running at ~ 2000 rpm. In the Controller section of Aquasuite I linked them to a water temp sensor. Using the Two point controller option I've set the pumps to Switch on at 32c and off at 30c. Then in the Fans section I've set the PWM minimum power to 36% and max to 100%. This will allow the pumps to maintain a minimum speed of ~2000 rpm. When the water temp reaches 32c the pumps will switch to full power.

The Two point controller in my opinion is more suitable for pump control over the Curve controller. This way you won't hear constant pitch changes when the pump rpm changes.
aquasuite 2012 - Version 1 Release
More details HERE
how is that not a beta? i can't even update the firmware.. stuck at 90%
Exactly. I'll let other people play with it first. ;)Quote:

Aquasuite RC-1 has serious bugs. Use Synchronize log data only once and you'll have to re-install Aquasuite. Otherwise it will start up and crash instantly. Same thing happens when you go into the Overview page preferences (the page that displays all the monitored devices that you set up).
As an insult to injury the new Aquasuite doesn't work with the previous FW...don't risk flashing back though, unless they say it's ok.
(this was tested on W7-64)
BTW, the new software also requires you to redo all your overview pages and setup. It won't allow you to import any settings from the previous version.
They updated the software. The crash related to the overview page has been fixed.
There's no technical reason why they can't support the importing of prior settings. Perhaps it's a time and manpower issue. :shakes:
There is a very simple reason: the way how the profiles are stored now is very different to the previous BETA version.
Shoggy: problem being those previous betas were only versions available for long time since initial release of product HW, thus users having somewhat higher expectations despite their labeling as alpha/beta/whatever. If it doesn't take unreasonable amount of coding manpower, imho it's worth to hack together something to ease conversion of old stuff to enhance user experience.
So you are saying, if I understand correctly, that if you are running say Beta 16, you will NOT be able to keep your current configuration and will have to start over from scratch? That's completely unacceptable.Quote:

The new added bells and whistles are nice, didn't have a problem with the upgrade either.. I never had a problem upgrading the firmware, been using it since Beta 9, so that's 7 releases before RC1, never ran into a problem.. Are you guys uninstalling the old version or you are just installing the new one on top of the old installation? I always uninstall old before installing the new..
Nice upgrade never the less and it has gotten a lot better, I recall Beta 9 was kinda "clunky"... Can't wait for " network remote control" feature to be implemented..

They updated the final version several times after its initial release. It appears to be working properly for me now as well.Quote:

I got that issue for about 4 hours ago, but that was first time ever. Have used AE5XT for a couple of months now...
Still running beta (firmware 1025).
I don't think firmware/bugs was causing the issue for me this time, because I have used this firmware for a long time already. (but I'm not 100% sure)
I dont know, but this bug still going on, and on... and make me sad
I have changed the firmware from 1025 to 1026 and still the same!
