raysc Posted April 6, 2020 Posted April 6, 2020 Hi community, I have looked through the diagrams but i cant seem to figure this out. I am planning for a new build. 10 LL120s XC7 XD5 one (CoPro and one RGB HUB) will take care of all PWM connections and RGB connections for 6 fans.... leaving me with 4 fans , XC7, and XD5 so im trying to figure out what the best way to do this with full access from iCUE. initially i thought i would just use another hub, but i learned that the XD5 and XC7 has to connect to the LED CHANNEL also, another RGB HUB will eat up the last LED CHANNEL on the CoPro. also, i would need another 4PWM connections somehow for the 4 fans could i somehow utilize the usb connections on the CoPro to solve what im trying to do? is the only way to have another CoPro?
raysc Posted April 6, 2020 Author Posted April 6, 2020 (edited) another question is- am i able to use multiple PWM HUBs to take care of the 10 fan PWM connections? ie CoPro PWM 1 connects to a pwm hub which contains 3 fans CoPro PWM 2 connects to a pwm hub which contains another 3 fans CoPro PWM 3 connects to a pwm hub which contains another 3 fans CoPro PWM 4 connects to a fan CoPro PWM 5 connects to XD5 CoPro PWM 6 is left alone Edited April 6, 2020 by raysc
DevBiker Posted April 6, 2020 Posted April 6, 2020 Yes, you can use a PWM hub for the fans. Make sure to set the fan as 4-pin manually in iCUE. Put the XD5 on CoPro #6. As for the LED channels, you can either use a Lighting Node Pro connected to the CoPro USB channel or get a 3rd party Fan Hub Splitter.
raysc Posted April 6, 2020 Author Posted April 6, 2020 Thanks! Is there a difference in having XD5 of 5 vs 6? Is there a PWM hub that you recommend? Cheers, ray
DevBiker Posted April 7, 2020 Posted April 7, 2020 Thanks! Is there a difference in having XD5 of 5 vs 6? Is there a PWM hub that you recommend? Cheers, ray The HydroX Wizard expects it to be in 6. The manual states to put it in 6. So ... As for PWM hub ... not really. There are several out there. I've heard of folks having success with all sorts of various hubs.
