MANUAL AQUASTREAM XT

Dear c stomer,

we thank yo for p rchasing the aq astream XT p mp. Yo have received a

very high-q ality and for longevity b ilt p mp for yo r water cooling system.

The aq astream p mp was developed in co-operation with the company

Eheim and is partic larly developed for the employment in PC water-cooling

systems. The electronic constr ction nits are laid o t for maxim m

performance and each component has been thoro ghly tested before

distrib tion. Also each p mp is metic lo sly s bmitted to a test r n; therefore

yo might find some moist resid e within the p mp.

1. Scope of s pply

1x aq astream XT USB 12 V p mp

1x ATX adapter for starting the power s pply nit

1x USB connection cable

1x Speed signal cable

1x J mper

2. Overview of the p mp variants

Of the aq astream XT there are three different variants which are different in

their f nctional range. The p mp and its hardware is identical at all variants.

So e.g. the "standard" variant also contains the internal temperat re sensor

b t it is not activated.

Which variant yo se c rrently can be find o t later in the overview of the of

the aq as ite software. Under the graphic representation of the p mp the

variant activated c rrently is displayed as text.

The following table shows the differences between the standard, advanced

and ltra variant:

An pgrade is possible thro gh o r web shop. For example, if yo want to

pgrade from the standard-variant to the extreme-variant, then yo note the

serial n mber and the p blic key from the tab "p mp information and key

management" of the aq as ite software. Yo then order the desired pgrade

from the aq a comp ter onlineshop and enter the serial n mber and the

p blic key into the remark field.

3. General notice for sage:

•Save yo r data before yo carry o t changes in the PC!

•The p mp is not diving capable!

•The rear p mp controller m stn't get in contact with water!

•The p mp may be sed only assembled in a PC case!

•A short rattle noise when starting the p mp is normal. If the noise does

not stop for some time, there might be still some air in the p mp.

•The p mp is not a s ction p mp. Please make s re that the p mp is filled

with water.

•The p mp is not s ited for dry operation.

•Operate only indoors. Not s ited for o tdoor operation.

•Care Instr ctions: Clean the p mp only when it is switched off with a

slightly moistened soft cloth.

4. Overview of the p mp

5. Assembly

First install the connecting adapters (not incl ded in the scope of s pply) to

the aq astream XT. The adapters sho ld be screwed in generally witho t a

tool ntil the stop. The black sealing may not be seen any more.

Sho ld yo be sing a pl g-on reservoir tank with the p mp (e.g. aq ainlet),

then yo m st remove the silver s ction grille and mo nt the tank directly on

the intake adaptor of the aq astream. In this case no connecting adapter

sho ld be installed on the intake.

If the p mp is to be eq ipped with an nco pling set, yo will first have to

remove the mo nting plate from the p mp and then fasten the r bber b ffers

with the enclosed n ts in the elongated holes of the mo nting plate.

6. Electronical connections

6.1. Connector panel of the p mp

The control electronics is integrated on

the rear side of the p mp. The b ilt-in

circ it board offers connectivities for

power s pply, fans, speed signal,

aq ab s or flow sensor, external

temperat re sensor and USB. Please take

into acco nt that depending on the

variant some connections can be witho t f nction.

T rn the power s pply nit off completely before yo attach or disconnect

external components!

In the following chapters the f nctions of the individ al connections are

described.

6.2. Making USB connection to the Mainboard

To be able to control and monitor the p mp thro gh the software a USB

connection to the PC m st be made. This connection, however, is not

imperative for the operation of the p mp. Connect the enclosed USB cable to

the USB port of the Mainboard while the PC is t rned off. Pay attention to the

correct orientation of the cable since the p mp and/or yo r comp ter can

otherwise be damaged.

Yo see a "1" as well as a little arrow on the USB pl g. Yo find these "1" and

the arrow also at the connection " sb" on the rear sticker of the p mp. At a

top view from behind the black wire is on the left and the red wire is on the

right.

6.3. Attaching speed signal cable

Attach the enclosed speed signal cable with one end at the connection "rpm"

while the PC is t rned off. Connect the other end to a free fan connector e.g.

on yo r Mainboard.

6.4. Attaching a fan (only advanced- and ltra-variant)

SAttach a fan to the connection "fan" while the PC is t rned off. Please take

into acco nt that the maxim m load sho ld not exceed 5 W. The aq astream

Gelliehä ser Str. 1 – D-37130 Gleichen - Germany

comp teraq a

Version 11/2007

MANUAL AQUASTREAM XT

XT has an excess temperat re protection nit so that a switching off is

a tomatically carried o t at a too high load to avoid damages. The o tp t,

however, is not short-circ it proof!

6.5. Attach an external temperat re sensor (only ltra-variant)

Attach a 10 kΩ NTC temperat re sensor (Order no. 53026) at the

connection "deaeration/ext. temp" while the PC is t rned off. Place the sensor

top to the point whose temperat re yo wo ld like to meas re.

Ca tion: Place the sensor nder no circ mstances between processor and

cooler! Moreover, do not expose the sensor to any press re since it is very

sensitive.

6.6. Attaching flow rate sensor (only ltra-variant) or aq ab s (all variants)

At the standard and advanced variant the connection "aq ab s/flow" is

config red as an aq ab s and can be sed e.g. To connect the p mp to an

optionally available aq aero. A se as a connection for a flow sensor is not

possible at these variants!

This connection is covered with two f nctions at the ltra variant. In the

delivery state the connection is config red as an aq ab s, however, the

aq as ite software can be sed to config re the connection to be sed with a

flow sensor. A sim ltaneo s se of aq ab s and flow sensor is not possible at

the connection. Yo find details for the available settings in the aq as ite

software on page 11.

The flow sensor and the special interconnecting cable are optional

accessories and can be p rchased separately.

6.7. Internal water temperat re sensor (only ltra-variant)

The aq astream XT has an internal water temperat re sensor which is already

pre-assembled. This sensor can be monitored only in the aq astream XT

ltra-variant.

6.8. Internal temperat re sensor for the controller board

The controller board of the aq astream XT is eq ipped with a pre-assembled

temperat re sensor. The advanced- and ltra variant has in addition a two-

step protective f nction to avoid an overload of at the fan connector and a

possible damage to the controller board.

The power of the fan connector is p t on 100% at a temperat re of approx.

70°C to minimize the internal dissipation power. If the temperat re increases

nevertheless f rther, then the performance is p t on 0% at a temperat re of

approx. 90°C and the connection will be switched off.

In both cases the reg lation activates the man al mode ntil yo change the

adj stments by hand.

7. Inbetriebnahme

First t rn off yo r PC, or remove the main PSU cable if no power-switch is

present. Remove all cables of the PSU (e.g. from non removable disks, optical

storage drives or graphic cards), especially also the 4pin ATX12V power

s pply. Attach the p mp to the power s pply nit with one of the 4-pin Molex

pl gs to establish the power s pply.

To be able to operate yo r p mp when filling the system, yo m st now either

start the PC power s pply with the enclosed ATX bridging pl g or attach the

p mp to a second power s pply nit.

For starting the power s pply nit yo p t the ATX

bridging pl g on the ATX pl g of the power s pply

nit. The power s pply starts after yo have p t the

pl g on. To t rn the power s pply nit off, yo

simply npl g the pl g again.

There is the possibility that yo r power s pply does

not r n with the ATX bridging pl g. In this case add

CD disk drives and hard disks to the power s pply nit.

A red control LED which sho ld flash now is at the lower rear opening at the

p mp. If the LED does not flash and shines d rably there is an operating

fail re . In that case a reset which is described on page 14 can help.

To activate the deaeration mode yo p t the enclosed j mper on the

connection with the marking "deaeration/ext. Temp". P tting the j mper on

m st be carried o t while the p mp already r ns. To end the deaeration

mode yo simply remove the j mper again. The p mp is in the normal

operating mode now again.

8. aq as ite Software

With the Windows software aq as ite an extensive software is at yo r

disposal which can be sed for all aq a comp ter prod cts with USB

interface. The software serves the control and monitoring. The installation of

the software is not imperative for the operation of the p mp.

Note: Depending on sed variant of the aq astream XT, some of the

described f nctions in the f rther text are not available in the software. These

can, however, be activated by the acq isition of a key afterwards.

If yo change the settings and want to keep them, then yo can store these

permanently into the p mp by sing the f nction "save settings" in the men

"aq astream XT".

8.1. Installation der aq as ite Software

To be able to control and monitor the aq astream XT over a Windows(1) PC,

we offer the aq as ite software as a free download on o r website

www.aq a-comp ter .de . Yo find the latest version of the software in the

s pport area.

In addition yo need the Microsoft(1) .NET framework(1) 2.0 or higher. Yo

find this this also in o r download area. If yo se Windows Vista(1), yo do

not need this program, since it is already integrated into the operating system.

Please install the Microsoft(1) .NET framework(1) first and if necessary restart the

comp ter. If the program creates a new ser acco nt yo can j st delete it in

the control panel.

Then install the aq as ite software. After the installation the aq as ite

software is immediately ready for se. Depending on the chosen settings the

aq as ite starts at the next restart a tomatically or can be started via the icon

on the desktop or thro gh the start men .

The following sites describe the f nctions of each window in the aq as ite

software.

(1)Microsoft, Windows, .NET framework and Windows Vista are registered

trademarks of Microsoft Corporation.

8.2. Window „aq astream“

Yo see all important data s mmarized compactly in the main view. The

graphic representation of the p mp shows the water temperat re on the left

and on the right side the water flow rate if a ltra variant of the p mp is sed

and an optionally available flow sensor was attached to the p mp.

A ring-like indicator within the p mp shows information abo t the adj sted

freq ency with its bl e segments. The more bl e segments are visible, the

higher the freq ency of the p mp is. Yo find a similar indication in the

graphic representation of the ventilator. The segments show information

abo t the adj sted performance here.

The o tp t voltage as well as the performance is displayed above the

ventilator.

The scale on the right side shows the temperat re of the optionally available

external sensor. The little red triangle marks the adj sted alarm temperat re.

General operating data of the p mp can be fo nd in the pper left field. The

c rrent stat s of the p mp as well as possible fa lts are displayed in the field

at the end of the window.
