vandelizer Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 New user here, did a couple searches for this but can't find the answers, also opened a ticket with Corsair but they say I'm trying to do something custom which is not supported by corsair even thoe the fan controller has it built in and Corsair stated in the ticket all functionality of the node is built into the software. Via the software (Corsair Link) I'm able to get each fan and LED strip to do the exact same thing at the same time, but I'm not able to get them to pass from one to the next to the next to the next as shown in this video at 15:08 - 16:37[ame= ] [/ame]. In the video he just has the fans plugged into power using the controller that comes with the fans, he is not using the Link software. Basically, Via Corsair Link, how do I get a pattern to start at the first strip, pass it to the 2nd, then 3rd etc? For example the rainbow setting with the 4 strips in a circle. If you follow a particular color as it goes down strip 1, when it comes to the end of strip 1 the color stops, it does not continue on with strip 2. All I can figure out so far is to have each strip do the same thing causing it to look a bit choppy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1k3g3tz Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 i was never able to get that effect from my fans through CL software. it did do that after the firmware update for LNP broke my ability to control the fans, and i plugged the 3 switch dongle in to test.

red-ray Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 i was never able to get that effect from my fans through CL software. I managed to get my LNP to do this, though I did not use CL4 ;):. I had to ZIP 40 LED Wave.wmv as .wmv can't be attached.40 LED Wave.zip36 Fan Wave.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandelizer Posted March 23, 2017 Author Share Posted March 23, 2017 Red-ray, That is exactly what I'm talking about, how did you do it? If you had to write something custom please let me know what software you did it with and if you don't mind sending me the file you made so I can use as a template. I am not apposed to the idea of learning another computer language. Please keep in mind I have 4 fans on a 480x120 radiator I'm wanting to sync with the LED's so I will have to tweak it. I'm putting the LED's on the back of the case (a Thermaltake Core P5) so it will glow when hung on the wall. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red-ray Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 please let me know what software you did it with I just added code so the LNP got told the strip had 40 LEDs, 36 for the fans. In general I only reply members who have used http://forum.corsair.com/forums/profile.php?do=extra to add their PC specs to their profile as I feel only such members deserve a reply. I have also noticed that members who fail to do this also ask questions rather then reading my posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charixfox Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 The video linked in the OP shows off the hardware-only HD Light Controller that the package of three fans and a controller comes with. That is one of the six not-everything modes, while the seventh is "do the other six". The behavior described by red-ray and in the HD120 RGB Custom Controller video on YouTube are both achieved with either custom software (SIV) for red-ray's LNP, or custom hardware (Arduino) and software for the video.

vandelizer Posted March 27, 2017 Author Share Posted March 27, 2017 red-ray, I looked at every screen on the SIV software you suggested but I do not see where to tell it the strip has 40 LED's and 36 for the fans as you mentioned. How did you tell it this? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red-ray Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I looked at every screen on the SIV software you suggested but I do not see where to tell it the strip has 40 LED's and 36 for the fans as you mentioned. I would never suggest you should use SIV as you did not even figure out I develop SIV 'till you were told. I am at a loss as to why you are saying I did and do not appreciate being misquoted :(:. I rarely suggest that anyone should use SIV and almost all SIV users just decide to use it. Further as clearly you don't bother to read or act on my posts I would never contemplate doing this. I extended [Link Setup] to enable the number of LED Strips and HD Fans to be specified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vandelizer Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 Thanks for your help but till the SIV 5.18 beta is no longer beta I guess I'm stuck with what Corsair puts out. I'm currently running 5.17 and every time I try to down load the beta I get: Unable to Open http://rh-software.com/downloads/siv_beta.zip, error 12029 A connection with the server could not be established If I put the url it is downloading the beta from "http://rh-software.com/downloads/siv_beta.zip" in the address window of my browser it comes up "403 Forbidden" so I guess I have to wait till the testing is over. In 5.17 the LPN port type there are not as many options as you have on the beta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vandelizer Posted March 30, 2017 Author Share Posted March 30, 2017 That did it "Known issues", I'm running the beta 5.18 and got the LED strips and fans to work the way the rest of you are able. FYI for those using 4 fans like I am on a 120x480 radiator, for the LPN channel you have the fan hub plugged into, to get the 4th fan to follow the pattern after the 3rd fan, set it to option 14 "RGB 40 LED strips" on the "AIO Link Setup" screen. Thanks again to everyone on this thread for helping me get this to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celsian Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I just want to give a big thank you to Ray for giving a software solution to this frustrating problem. Such beautiful Fan's and LED's, but such limited software from Corsair. Ray's SIV has given me the ability to set them up just how I'd like. Thank you :) Here's a video of my build: [ame] [/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charixfox Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 I honestly wish Corsair would put more interesting code into the LNP. The custom controller video with the fan lights synced to music is Serious Business. O.o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
