Aquastream Odity - Help Please

Mittwoch, 27. Juni 2007, 22:25

Hi All,

Just got an Aquastream from eBay, Building on a budget.

Just a few questions if I may,

1. The pump Flex was shortened and the previous owner used Paper Masking Tape as a insulator :-/ I just want to make sure I have rewired Correctly, Looking at the pump conector with the cable entries at the top it was wired Brown to Left and Blue to Right is this correct? (see Q3)

2. The controler came without bay mounting so just bare circuit board - Board Rev 3.5, Firmware 1.31 is this the latest?

3. Before Rewire, I connected everything to an old PSU for testing , Jumpers 1 and 2 left open and 3 set.

3.1 - Started psu usual way GRN and BLK, LEDs flashed, psu shut down!

3.2 - Start PSU Pump disconnected from controller, Constant GRN 3 Red Flash (expected) Plugged in Pump started sequence the shut off a few second later

Anyone know why 3.1 and 3.2 happened? or is the controller going down the pan?

A bit odd that when set up how the manual says it causes the PSU to shut off.

Thanks in advance
Andy

From the Numbers u have the latest Rev. of the parts.
I think the power cable causes your psu to shutdown but i dont know exactly

1.) It doesn't matter because it is alternating voltage.

2.) Yes, it is the latest version.

3.) A few PSUs will not run if the power consumption of the connected device(s) is too low. But that seems not to be the reason because than your configuration from 3.2 would not work...

Is the pump running when it is connected to the controller?
