Another Aquaero plugging in type question!

Sonntag, 17. April 2005, 17:28

Hi all, i've been reading thru the aquaero manual, and i can't figure out if you can connect the aquaero to the power button leads of the motherboard along with a physical power button, i.e. in parallel, so that the aquaero can turn the pc off via the power button connection, as well as having that option myself, rather than having it turn it off the other way (via the atx ps_on# wire.). i hope you can understand my babblings well enough to help! cheers

excellent

, also, a bit off topic, but connected with this post: can you just connect an led directly to the power and hdd led pins on the motherboard, or do you need a resistor? i'm not sure what voltage these pins put out. ta

Normally you won't need a resistor. If you have a voltmeter you could check the voltage.

continuing on from my original question: do you still need the 'aquaero power connect cable' (Art.-Nr.53041) if you connect the aquaero as in shoggy's diagram? (just trying to keep the interior tidy, you see! can't have spaghetti everywhere :'()
