Icue and 1000d

I set my system exactly as the second 1000D diagram and ran into a problem. All rgbs light up when they are one color. As soon as i load a profile, the bottom 4 fans on the front panel quit lighting up. I and think is something in icue, any suggestions? Fyi i have the latest firmware.

I would very, very, very strongly recommend that you NOT put 8 LL fans on a single hub. The fan hubs have an upper limit of 4.5A - this is due to the SATA power specification. 8 LL fans can draw up to 4.6-4.7A. The effects for the ML fans will work. They won't necessarily look quite "right" (they'll match 1/2 of the first LL Fan) but they'll work. Honestly, you'd likely be better off splitting the fans to 4 LL + 1 ML on each hub. Then use the single Fan Hub Splitter.

Off-brand LED strips may work ... they may not. Again, you need to be aware of the power limitation (~2A) on the Lighting Channel and they have to be WS2812B. WS2811 won't work.

It seems to be recommended to not mix different fan types on an RGB hub. Will this cause issues and will I be able to control them properly?

yes certain sequential effects wouldn't work correctly... but thats a trade off when fiddling the system ;)

You wouldn't be able to control them properly with LL on one and ML on another and using a splitter either. So either way you go, you won't be able to control them "properly".

The fan hub splitter works best when the fan hubs are identical too. My suggestion keeps them identical.

Question I'm confused
Hello everyone!

I have 2 systems running Corsair Fans. The 1st system is running 3 ML120 RGB fans and the 2nd system is running 6 LL120 RGB fans. Both systems are connected to their respective Lighting HUB, Lighting Node Pro and controlled with Corsair Link.

The 1st system(ML120 RGB) can run my lighting profile while Corsair Link is closed which means when I turn on/off my pc the colors don't change.

On the other hand the 2nd system (LL120) can't do that. The Corsair Link software must be open all the time to keep my lighting profile going on otherwise it becomes a "rainbow puke". When I turn on/off my pc the rainbow becomes alive aswell. Not really a huge concern but is this behave specific to the LL120's or maybe I have a problem with my Lightning Node Pro?

Thanks!

First, you are using Link. Link is End of Life and has been for a while. And Link never supported hardware based lighting effects for LL fans.

With iCUE, you can set hardware profiles for all fan types. They aren't as rich as the software-based profiles that you can create but it will allow you to avoid the "rainbow puke" mode.

Thank you!
Just downloaded the iCUE software and I was able to turn off the lighting to avoid the rainbow puke. Now the fans only turn on when iCUE is running. And yea hardware profiles are def limited compared to software profiles.

Needing some help here. Is the cable to connect the Lightning Node Pro to the RGB Fan Hub the one with 3 pins but only two cables? I ask because when connected the fans don’t light up. Could this be a faulty fan?
