LEAKSHIELD
The software sensors (sensor 1-12) on the other hand are placeholders for data to
be transferred from your PC to LEAKSHIELD via USB.
Here all data of the aquasuite (incl. hardware monitoring and other Aqua Com-
puter devices) are available. In addition, a scaling factor and an offset can be se-
lected for these sensors.
The data transmitted in this way can later be shown on the display of LEAKSHIELD,
for example, or serve as a data source for RGBpx effects.
Please note that this data is only available when the Aqua Computer background
service is running and a USB connection to LEAKSHIELD exists. During the boot
process, for example, this is not the case!
The most important sensor values of LEAKSHIELD:
12.1.
12.1.12.1.
12.1. Pressure

The first displayed sensor indicates the current negative pressure in mbar.
12.2.
12.2.12.2.
12.2. Fill level

The second displayed sensor indicates the current fill level of the reservoir in per-
cent.
In the configuration section you have the possibility to start the fill level measure-
ment and to adjust the settings given in the wizard for this section. You will find
more information about the details in chapter 11.1 (Reservoir).
We recommend to make the settings only through the wizard.
12.3.
12.3.12.3.
12.3. Volume change

The third displayed sensor provides information about the volume change in ml/h.
This value can give you information about smaller leakages. However, this value
also changes when the temperature of your system changes.
12.4.
12.4.12.4.
12.4. Pressure change

The fourth displayed sensor provides similar information as the volume change
value, but here the pressure change is given in mbar per minute.
12.5.
12.5.12.5.
12.5. Pump speed

Pump speed
The fifth displayed sensor shows the current pump speed (if available). This value is
transmitted via USB from the Aqua Computer background service to LEAKSHIELD.
You can customize the sensor name and log interval.
