You are already probably thinking that this looks like
one of the coolest fan controllers out there. Well, you are not far off :) With
the black and silver theme it will suit most computer cases. Let's have a look
at the illustration (provided by Zalman) of the front panel.
1. Graphic Power Load Meter: Displays power
between 30 to 800W in 4 stages.
2. Numeric Power Load Display: Numerically displays power between 30 and 800W.
(The Numeric Power Load Display will read “LLL”when an overflow occurs. “LLL”indicates power loads beyond the unit’s measurable range.)
3. Fan Status Display: The Fan’s operation status is indicated with animated
propeller images.
4. Fan Channels
5. RPM Display: During RPM Setting, RPM is displayed in units of 60RPM, and
actual operational RPM is displayed in units of 10RPM.
6. Temperature Display: Displays temperature readings between -9 °C and +99 °C
7. Jog Wheel: Used for adjusting Fan RPM. RPM can be set from 1000 to 5940RPM in
units of 60RPM.
8. Mode Button: Used for selecting a Fan Channel and saving the Fan RPM setting.
Is this not the sweetest looking fan controller on the planet!
To illustrate the power supply load in watts, take a peek at the pictures below. In the
left picture is the computer system under typical load. In the left picture is the
computer system under heavy load running the FEAR Combat Multiplayer game. This
wattage readout with the graphic power load
meter can be very useful because it tells you exactly how much power your system
is using in real time.
Now, let's have a look at the
illustration (provided by Zalman) of the back panel.
1. Standard Fans (Fan 1~3): 3-Pin fans that include the RPM output
function can be connected for use. PWM Fan (Fan 4): 4-Pin fan that includes the
PWM function can be connected for use.
2. Temperature Sensing: Four temperature sensors can be connected.
3. CVS Terminal: Receives the measured values of the CVS.
4. Power Connector: Connects with the PSUs 4-Pin connector.
Below are the mounting holes. There are mounting holes on the bottom, left and
right, so this unit should fit in almost any case.
