just connected the signal connector on my AQ OCTO to the power button. set alarm to activate the connector switching the PC off if the pump drops to 0%

I tested it with the continuity setting of my multi meter, and it works.

Yes it works, and is a clever idea that provides a major safety feature for the cost of a bit of wire, 2 connectors, and 1 digital output bit. I think it holds the contact pair low for 1-second. Be careful about how you set up the Alarm trigger. When I got mine, while testing, I inadvertently set the Alarm trigger to a condition that normally occurred when AQS service and GUI start up. The result was every time AQS started, the alarm would trigger and the computer would shut down. Oops.

Mine seems ok. Set it so if the pump goes 0 it will switch. It boots up fine, so should be ok. I like the fact i can leave it on and go out and if the pump fails, it will save itself. It's pretty easy to set up, not sure why others have a problem. I even made the cable myself till the AQ one comes in the post.

it's because you made a simple alarm :p When integrating it as part of a more complex virtual sensor, things may go south hehe

for me the pump is the important thing, if it dies my PC does so the alarm control is on that only.

Pretty pleased with the OCTO tbh
