Aquasuite not showing Hwinfo Remote Sensors

Thursday, February 19th 2026, 4:57am

I have a dual system with aquasuite installed on the main system. I share the second pc sensors via hwinfo but aquasuite only shows the local PC (main) sensors the remote sensors don't appear at all . I reached out to the developer of hwinfo who confirmed that it was a aquasuite issue ... My question is can this be fixed ?

How do you "share the second pc sensors via hwinfo"?

It is not possible to use HWinfo remote sensors with Aquasuite.

HWINFO can access sensor data from HWINFO on other computers on the network. There is a "Manage Network Connections for Remote Monitoring" button to the left of the recently added Stress Test button at the bottom right of the main Sensor panel. Pressing this button opens the Remote Center panel.I think the free version can monitor up to 5 remote computers and the Pro version can monitor up to 300 remote computers. The sensor data from the remote computers is appended at the end of the main Sensor panel. HWINFO sensor data from remote computers is available in the HWINFO shared memory but apparently, Aquasuite cannot access it. I think this limitation is due to HWINFO's memory-mapped file structure which maps remote sensor data differently. Local HWINFO sensors have static IDs that Aquasuite can map, but remote sensor data IDs are dynamic, depend on the name of the remote PC, and can change when the network connection to the remote PC is interrupted and reestablished. Is it possible to access the remote computer sensor data via shared memory and I think the FanControl software can do it.

What OP may be able to do is manually add custom sensors to the Registry for the sensor items he wants to import into Aquasuite, then configure the custom sensors to be mirrors of the sensor values from the remote PC. Once the custom sensor is configured to mirror the imported sensor, it appears in the HWINFO main Sensor panel and appears in Aquasuite. I just tried making a custom sensor in the Registry that is a mirror of my pump RPM. It took me a while to figure out exactly how to set up the new Registry key but its working, and now I see that value in Aquasuite. The sensor value I am mirroring is not coming into HWINFO from another computer, but I don't think that matters for proof of concept. I do have another computer on the same network running HWINFO, so when I have time I can get HWINFO on that computer to send sensor data to HWINFO on this computer, then make a custom sensor that mirrors one of the imported sensors to confirm that the sensor mirror will work for an imported sensor value. I think HWINFO is limited to 64 custom sensors, and a Registry key would need to be manually entered for each one. That would be tedious to do for 64 sensors, but perhaps OP does not need that many remote sensors imported into Aquasuite.

Note - The third screen shot shows the Custom sensor that I set up in the Registry to mirror my pump RPM. The 4th screen shot shows this sensor appearing in Aquasuite Data Quick View. I discovered that the name of the custom sensor subkey is limited to certain names. Right now the subkey is named "Fan0". I tried changing it to "pump0". The custom sensor still shows up, but the data is no longer mirrored. A quick AI search says the subkey names are limited to:
FanX, TempX, VoltX, CurrentX, PowerX, ClockX, and OtherX. They are not case sensitive. I have not confirmed this.
