2. Безбедносне информације

  • Уверите се да је ваш рачунар искључен и да је кабл искључен из зидне утичнице пре инсталације.
  • Пажљиво рукујте компонентама како бисте избегли оштећења.
  • Do not attempt to modify the hub or its components.
  • This hub is designed for 5V 3-pin ARGB components only. It does not support 12V RGB components. Connecting 12V RGB devices may cause damage.
  • Држите уређај даље од влаге и екстремних температура.

3.2. Кораци инсталације

  1. Монтирајте главчину: The hub features strong magnets on its back. Attach it directly to a metal surface inside your PC case. Ensure it is securely placed and does not obstruct other components or airflow.

  3. Прикључите напајање: Connect the two SATA power connectors from the hub to available SATA power cables from your power supply unit (PSU). This provides stable power to the fans and ARGB lighting.
  4. Connect to Motherboard (Optional for Sync):
    • For PWM fan speed control, connect the 4-pin PWM cable from the hub to a 4-pin PWM fan header on your motherboard (labeled 'PWM/FG' on the hub).
    • For motherboard ARGB lighting synchronization, connect the 3-pin 5V ARGB cable from the hub to a compatible 3-pin 5V ARGB header on your motherboard (labeled 'SYNC 5V 3PIN' on the hub).
  5. Повежите навијаче: Connect your 4-pin PWM fans to the 'FAN-A1' through 'FAN-A5' and 'FAN-B1' through 'FAN-B5' ports on the hub. Connect your 3-pin 5V ARGB devices (fans or LED strips) to the 'ARGB-A1' through 'ARGB-A5' and 'ARGB-B1' through 'ARGB-B5' ports.
  6. Important Note for PWM: Ensure that at least one 4-pin PWM fan is connected to the FAN-A1 port. This port is crucial for the motherboard to read the fan speed and access the PWM signal for all connected fans. If FAN-A1 is not connected, the BIOS may not correctly detect or control fan speeds.
  7. Connect LED Switch (Optional): If you have an external LED switch on your PC case, you can connect it to the 2-pin 'LED SWITCH' port on the hub to toggle lighting effects.

4. Операција

4.1. Функције даљинског управљача

The included remote control allows for comprehensive management of fan speed and ARGB lighting effects. Point the remote directly at the fan hub for optimal signal reception.

  • ON/OFF Lights (Power Button): Toggles the ARGB lighting on or off.
  • SPEED- / SPEED+ Buttons: Increases or decreases the fan speed.
  • MODE- / MODE+ Buttons: Cycles through different ARGB lighting modes.
  • Дугме АУТО: Activates automatic cycling through all available lighting modes.
  • Luminosity Adjustment Keys (Sun Icons): Adjusts the brightness of the ARGB lighting.
  • Monochromatic Shortcut Keys (R, G, B, W): Directly sets the lighting to Red, Green, Blue, or White.
  • Music Mode Keys (♪1, ♪2, ♪3): Activates different music-reactive lighting modes.
  • M/B Button (Motherboard & Controller Signal Switching Key): Switches control between the remote controller and motherboard ARGB synchronization. When the hub is first connected to a 5V ARGB port on the motherboard, the lighting defaults to motherboard control. Pressing the M/B button will switch control back to the remote.

5. Одржавање

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your DARKROCK fan hub, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

  • Чишћење: Periodically clean the hub and its connections using a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using liquid cleaners or solvents.
  • Уклањање прашине: Ensure the area around the hub and connected fans is free from excessive dust buildup, which can impede cooling and affect component lifespan.
  • Управљање кабловима: Maintain tidy cable routing to prevent strain on connectors and improve airflow within your PC case.

КСНУМКС. Решавање проблема

  • Fans Not Spinning or Incorrect Speed:
    • Ensure all SATA power connectors are securely plugged into the PSU.
    • Verify that the 4-pin PWM cable from the hub is connected to a motherboard fan header.
    • Confirm that at least one 4-pin PWM fan is connected to the FAN-A1 port on the hub. This is essential for BIOS detection and PWM signal transmission.
    • Check fan connections to the hub for proper seating.
  • ARGB Lights Not Working or Incorrect Colors:
    • Ensure all SATA power connectors are securely plugged in.
    • Verify that 3-pin 5V ARGB devices are connected to the correct 3-pin 5V ARGB ports on the hub.
    • Напомена о компатибилности: This hub is only compatible with 3-pin 5V addressable RGB components. It does not support 12V RGB components. Connecting 12V RGB devices will not work and may damage the hub or the device.
    • If using motherboard sync, ensure the 3-pin 5V ARGB cable is connected to the motherboard's 5V ARGB header. If lights are controlled by the motherboard, press the M/B button on the remote to switch control back to the remote.
    • Check ARGB device connections to the hub for proper seating.
  • Даљински управљач не реагује:
    • Ensure there are no obstructions between the remote and the hub.
    • Проверите батерију даљинског управљача и замените је ако је потребно.
