Aquaero Set clock

Is it just me or does the aquaero/aquasuite set clock software not work?

I click on it and it doesnt do anything! and everytime I restart my PC the clock on my aquaero has reset.
It only does this when the USB lead isnt connected.

anyone have any ideas?

That's the problem

The aquaero must be connected to USB. Otherwise the software can not set the clock on your aquaero.

So even when I set the clock manually using the buttons on the front of the Aquaero it will have to be set againevery time I re start my PC? ???

Is there no way to get it to remember the time without having the usb lead constantly plugged in?

The aquaero has no battery, so it can't save the time settings.

You can get the ATX break adapter which also has a longer standby wire which can be connected to the aquaero. In this case it will remeber the time etc.

Ok Thanks for the help.
It's not really what I wanted to hear

but at least it's not a problem with the aquaero.

any idea if a small button battery could be connected to aquaero via the standby wire connectors instead of using the full atx break adapter?

The aquaero needs 5 V and ~50 mA in standby. I don't know a button cell with 5 V and even if it exists, it would be empty within a few hours.
