2 x Aquaero 5 XT

Wednesday, May 1st 2013, 3:13am

Is it possible to run two Aquaero 5 xt's?

I have 2 x mcp35x2's so i was thinking that on each aquaero I could have (1 x mcp35x2, 1x Flowmeter, 2x 4-set of fans, 4 sensors).

This would allow each Aquaero to be responsible for its own water loop. Will this work?

Does Aquasuite have the ability to talk to 2 Aquaero's simulaneously or will I have to run one as a Slave, if so will I loose the PWM header for the pump.

You can run both AQ 5 XT off seperate internal USB ports and have full functionality of all sensors and controllers and Aquasuite will treat them as independant controllers no problem!

Its designed for internal MB USB port headers but I guess you could use an adapter that would convert external USB to internal header if you dont have enough internal ports?
