MSI MEG Aixxxxp PSU support

[Martin]

Hmm, that's quite weird, looks like it doesn't properly return the total runtime.
I have information how report this but since MSI own software doesn't seem to be right it's hard to compare the value I get with some reference.

here is a newer Screenshot:



maybe the total time will reset every week? I observe this...

 

[Martin]

That wouldn't make sense to display it as Total.
Today I'm planning to release a new Beta build that should correctly display the Total Time.

 

[Owambo]

Okay, total runtime is here



has total kWh a chance?

 

[Martin]

I don't know yet how the total power consumption is calculated.
Does that number increase over time or go up/down like the total runtime?

 

[Owambo]

it seems like be the same.
currently it is at 5kWh - On monday it was on 5kWh, too.

Does that number increase over time or go up/down like the total runtime?

Increase - example below

...
kWh_Total=7,693667
......
[WeeklyChart]
06-15-2023=0,4978
06-16-2023=1,9146
06-17-2023=2,9338
06-18-2023=2,347467

Does the MSI software need to be running all time to report the Total kWh? You might verify this by not running it since the morning and then start in the evening and see what it will report for the current day.
What I'm trying to determine here is whether the PSU has its own counter for Total power consumption or the software accumulates it only when it's running.

Probably yes.

Kk - so I must stop msi services:
* MSI Center Service
* MSI Voice control service
* MSI_Case_Service
via services.msc

Also disable MSI Center startup.

Rgr.

Today same values so for sure "MSI software need to be running all time to report the Total kWh".

Then such information is quite inaccurate and can be misleading.
