On the 2nd USB Lighting Node I just have the 2 QL 140mm Fans lighting wires connected, because I have the Fans powered by the NZXT Z63 and I can control the RPM through NZXT CAM. Powerful CORSAIR iCUE software brings everything together, allowing you to customize RGB lighting, monitor hardware and coolant temperatures, and adjust fan and pump speeds, all from a single intuitive interface. Low profile and easy to install Cooling and lighting control for a modern system can be convoluted and messy. One program controls your lighting, another controls your fans, and maybe even a third monitors your temperatures. Our CORSAIR LINK software and the new Commander PRO combine these features into a single device and software combo. Okay, I have both, the commander and the light pro, I think. My commander does not look like the one above, one side all fans, the other side is all RGB Hub, the end has the plugin I need for my Corsair AIO cooler.. I also have the light pro. The case came with a third kind, a straight RGB Hub, that is attached to the Light Pro. Can I run two or three nodes? Do I need all three? I do have to run the Hub that came with the cooler because of the end plugin for the cooler. But what problems am I looking at? Reply
The Commander Pro has a USB connector and a SATA power connector. You can connect the Commander Pro in one of the USB header on the motherboard, usually located at the bottom portion of the motherboard. The Commander Pro has two USB 2.0 headers, this means you can connect another accessory, like the Lighting Node Pro, via the Commander Pro instead of connecting it directly to the motherboard. This minimizes the exposed cables, giving a nice and clean build with well-managed cable routing. I did get in touch with Corsair support about that, and they think it's the bandwith of usb 2 that is the problem.The first time I set the system up the 6 QL 120mm Fan light wasn't working, but it was powered and the fans are (Blowing Air) We need to solve the above issue, however I can't think of any advantage in your situation for using the Commander Pro to power the new LL on the radiator vs the cooler's own fan controller. Both are full controllable through iCUE. When on the Commander Pro you'll need to jump through some hoops to make it do the right thing from a control perspective. The H100i coolant temp for the Commander Pro is not a native value and will disappear if iCUE is not running. Meanwhile the cooler has the sensor internally and will always be able to use that and keep the fans at a steady speed and not do the blast off on boot and restart. On my first Commander Pro I was using 4 probes, 2 RGB (4led strip + 2 fans), 5 Fans (3 NF-14 and 2 Corsair HD140) I was intending to add 2 or 3x of the QL120 fans to this commander core. But reading what you wrote, it would seem that I would not be able to alter the color scheme or fan speed on these fans as they are not the same ones used on the H100i? I just received everything (commander XT and 2 SP120 pro) everything works as I hoped, except for the 2 fans I bought myself.
Since you use push pulls, that's a ton of fans that will use the same speed. You could group them on powered PWM hubs and only use one PWM output per radiator. If i use single color (cobal profile is mainly blue) (2x LS100 long @ 444/each + 2x LS100 short @ 260/each) i reach a value of 1.07 amps which is half an amp LOWER than current draw Jeg tænkte på, om nogen har prøvet at tilslutte disse nye RGB-strips til en belysningsknude Pro eller Commander Pro? Hvis ja, virker de rigtigt? kan de kontrolleres?
Corsair Commander Pro Review – The All-In-One Hub
Typically not an issue for Intel, but that is a lot of hardware going through one port. You might only need 1 NZXT hub, but given the size and expense invested already that may be easier for installation purposes. You can momentarily connect the other devices to MB directly for the purpose of demonstrating functionality, but this is the issue for 99% of users.
I just installed a Commander pro along with new ML120 fans as a pull on my H150i. I also installed two EK fans as a pull on my GPU radiator and one more EK fan as case exhaust. So..a total of 6 fans connected to the CoPro. Everything is fine with the Corsair fans but the EK fans are all over the place with rpm's. I've tried everything in iCUE to resolve it. Made my own fan profiles. Used the default profiles. Tried fixed percentages and rpm. Changed the detection setting from auto detect to pwm, the fans still run all over the place from literally stopping one second(visual) then jumping to 3000+ rpm's according to iCUE display the next second. I don't even have a curve that goes higher than 1500. Anyone have any thoughts or ideas what is causing this, or are the RK fans simply not compatible with the CoPro? If not compatible that would be a real bummer. After you’ve given your build some personality, you’ll want to dive right into temperature sensors and fan control. This is where the Commander PRO really shines. For example, if you want a quiet system and your system temperature runs within acceptable limits, you can have the Commander PRO turn off all your system fans with a custom fan curve. yes you would be able to change the color of the QL fans. but certain sequential RGB effects will play wrong. Number 1, Sata Powered with 4.5a Limit for the entire unit... this includes its MCU as well as a 1a limit per fan header. (note. Not Officially supported but there is no reason why you can not use Fan header Splitter cables but its been noted triple fan splitters cause issues)The CoPro won't show you the power draw. You have to do the math. How many strips are you using and what size? Look them up, calculate the draw and see if it's under 2A (or 2000mA). There are a total of six fan headers; you can connect either a 3-pin fan or a 4-pin PWM fan. Unfortunately, the Commander Pro only supports the 3-pin (RGB) LED Strip. I haven’t tried other RGB LED strip with the Commander Pro since the only 3-pin LED strip we have are the ones that came with the Lighting Node Pro. If you already have some Corsair RGB LED strips, you may connect and control the LED strips via the Commander Pro.
Great Deal
