I could not get my pumps to work correctly either. Aquaero would never make connection. Did not spend a lot of time working with them. Says in the paper work that came with mine that they will stop if temperature rises too much. Could not take a risk like that. Those style pumps were a little to noisy for me anyways. I have also found out that turning off the power supply or unplugging it if there was no switch. Then hold the power switch down to get all the electricity drained out of the system.

Start again and connect everything with USB and Aquabus (4 pin) at the same time. In the individual MPS tabs in Aquasuite for each device select the correct device type in the drop down menu, change the aquabus address for each to a unique number and the priority to Aquabus.

Save the settings to each device and the Aquaero with the button on their Tabs


Restart the computer (This may not be neccesary)


You should by now have access to the pumps and the flow meter in the Aquaero 5 tab of Aquasuite under "sensors" for the flow meter and "outputs" for the pumps

To control the pumps you have to assign both of them to a controller on the "controller" Tab

If everything is working you can disconnect the USB cables from the pumps and flow sensor ... You will only have access to these devices through the Aquaero and the Aquero tabs in Aquasuite after disconecting.

If you still have problems I would recommend posting some screen shots of settings etc.
