Do Commander Pro and Lighting Node Pro work without OS?

Hi, I read that these two controllers are connected to the motherboard via an internal usb 2.0 header. Do fan control and default rgb works regardless of OS?

I can imagine that one needs to go to Windows to change the rgb pattern. What about just default color pattern and fan control? Will that work without OS?

Thanks. So with the RGB LED Fan Hub, do the fans control and default rgb work regardless of OS?

Assuming you've loaded a "hardware lighting" profile in, that will be used on boot before the OS loads and iCue takes over.

 

If you haven't set a hardware lighting profile, then the default rainbow pattern will show.

Thanks. I wonder if the loaded "hardware lighting" profile (if exist)/rainbow pattern will be shown under Linux then.

 

The main concern is if the cpu and case fans will run properly without the OS, under BIOS and under Linux. I think the fans are connected to a controller which connects to the motherboard via a usb2.0 header. I wonder if those things will work even without the Windows OS (e.g. under BIOS, Linux)?

Thanks. I wonder if the loaded "hardware lighting" profile (if exist)/rainbow pattern will be shown under Linux then.

Yes, as long as a hardware lighting is set on your device (via iCue etc. on Windows), they should be working when iCue isn't running, even when running in BIOS, a different OS or no OS at all.
