Hey all,
just a quick question, not sure if I'm being an idiot or if my pump has issues.
I have the d5 usb pump, the usb cable plugged into my board, and the cable from the "aquabus" plugged into my cpu fan header but I keep on getting "CPU fan error" when I boot.
I know it's not my motherboard, as if I put another fan in it works.
I've had to use a fan extension cable to get the length from the pump to the mboard, but I know that's working as it works with other fans.
When I disable the warning, I can see the pump in Aquasuite fine, adjust the speed etc.
Any ideas?
Cheers
As GTXJack said, do NOT connect the aquabus cable to a Mobo Fan header.
If you do NOT have an aquaero installed on your system, you would connect the USB port to a mobo USB port, and use aquasuite to control the pump.
If your mobo supports shutting the system down from a CPU fan failure, you could connect the D5 TACHO port to your mobo CPU fan header, and using the alarm module control a faux fan RPM signal to the CPU fan header.
If you DO have an aquaero installed, you can also use the included 3-pin aquabus cable to connect the D5 AQUABUS port to the aquaero AQUABUS HIGH port, which then allows you to control the pump with an aquasuite controller.
And you may also move the connection from the D5 TACHO port to the aquaero RPM port for the same alarm control effect, but with a more extensive alarm module.
If you do use the aquabus connection, be sure to set the D5 pump to "Priority aquabus" on the pump's USB > System tab.
