24Description
25-----------
26
27This driver exposes hardware sensors of listed Aquacomputer devices, which
28communicate through proprietary USB HID protocols.
29
30The Aquaero devices expose eight physical, eight virtual and four calculated
31virtual temperature sensors, as well as two flow sensors. The fans expose their
32speed (in RPM), power, voltage and current. Temperature offsets and fan speeds
33can be controlled.
34
35For the D5 Next pump, available sensors are pump and fan speed, power, voltage
36and current, as well as coolant temperature and eight virtual temp sensors. Also
37available through debugfs are the serial number, firmware version and power-on
38count. Attaching a fan to it is optional and allows it to be controlled using
39temperature curves directly from the pump. If it's not connected, the fan-related
40sensors will report zeroes.
41
42The pump can be configured either through software or via its physical
43interface. Configuring the pump through this driver is not implemented, as it
44seems to require sending it a complete configuration. That includes addressable
45RGB LEDs, for which there is no standard sysfs interface. Thus, that task is
46better suited for userspace tools.
47
48The Octo exposes four physical and sixteen virtual temperature sensors, a flow sensor
49as well as eight PWM controllable fans, along with their speed (in RPM), power, voltage
50and current. Flow sensor pulses are also available.
51
52The Quadro exposes four physical and sixteen virtual temperature sensors, a flow
53sensor and four PWM controllable fans, along with their speed (in RPM), power,
54voltage and current. Flow sensor pulses are also available.
55
56The Farbwerk and Farbwerk 360 expose four temperature sensors. Additionally,
57sixteen virtual temperature sensors of the Farbwerk 360 are exposed.
58
59The High Flow Next exposes +5V voltages, water quality, conductivity and flow readings.
60A temperature sensor can be connected to it, in which case it provides its reading
61and an estimation of the dissipated/absorbed power in the liquid cooling loop.
62
63The Leakshield exposes two temperature sensors and coolant pressure (current, min, max and
64target readings). It also exposes the estimated reservoir volume and how much of it is
65filled with coolant. Pump RPM and flow can be set to enhance on-device calculations,
66but this is not yet implemented here.
67
68The Aquastream XT pump exposes temperature readings for the coolant, external sensor
69and fan IC. It also exposes pump and fan speeds (in RPM), voltages, as well as pump
70current.
71
72The Aquastream Ultimate pump exposes coolant temp and an external temp sensor, along
73with speed, power, voltage and current of both the pump and optionally connected fan.
74It also exposes pressure and flow speed readings.
75
76The Poweradjust 3 controller exposes a single external temperature sensor.
77
78The High Flow USB exposes an internal and external temperature sensor, and a flow meter.
79
80The MPS Flow devices expose the same entries as the High Flow USB because they have
81the same USB product ID and report sensors equivalently.
82
83Depending on the device, not all sysfs and debugfs entries will be available.
84Writing to virtual temperature sensors is not currently supported.
85
86Usage notes
87-----------
88
89The devices communicate via HID reports. The driver is loaded automatically by
90the kernel and supports hotswapping.
