Introduction Introduction 1 ) Overview 3 ) Key Introduction Thank you for purchasing Thermaltake's latest Intelligent Thermal Management System: Hardcano 12 SE. Today ' Personal Computer is much more powerful and robust; therefore, manufacturers turn to thermal solution that pushes more air and dissipates heat more effectively. Cluster of high speed fans inside a chassis can create undesired noises.
Introduction Introduction 4 ) Display Introduction 5 ) Connectors 1 2 Inclusion: 3pin connector X4 thermal probe X4 4pin connector X1 3 6 4 5 Connectors: 4pin connector X1 Connectors: Fan controller X4 For power supply Example For CPU fan T1 Example No. Icon Description Mode State 2 Temperature Displays current temperature 3 T1~T4 Shows the current temperature monitoring location.
Installation 1 ) How to install in case. Multiple pre-drilled mounting holes to accommodate various 5.25" drive depth. Application for all kinds case installation: Part II Installation Example: 2 ) Fan control function 2.1 Power Connector Note:Strongly recommended connecting the power connector to the PSU directly.
Installation Installation Connecting Fans 2.2 Fan Connectors Fan1 Fan2 Fan3 Fan4 Fan Control Wire X 4 Above application shows Fan1 Fan Control Cable connected to the most common fan connector. This setup will allow Hardcano 12 to adjust fan speed and receive RPM signal as well.(please refer Q&A Q5 ) ( 2 ) With 4 pin connector and RPM signal wire Black Ground 2.3 How to install the connectors Red +12V Yellow Signal RPM 2.3.
Installation Installation 2.4 How to read fan speed 2.3.2 Fan connector without RPM signal wire Select the Fan you wish to adjust. Fan connector without RPM signal wire PCB Fan Connector Fan1/T1 CPU Fan 4 pin connector Adaptor(3 pin to 4 pin) Fan2/T2 A few variations of fan does not provide RPM signal. In such cases, Hardcano 12 module can only control the Fan's speed but not monitor its RPM.
Installation Installation 3 ) Temperature detect function Press "+"button to increase fan speed. (Maximum speed varies from each different fan unit.) 3.1 Thermal sensor T1 T2 T3 T4 Thermal Sensor X 4 3.2 How to attach the thermal sensor Press on "-" to decrease fan speed. (Minimum speed is 50% of the fan's maximum speed.) Application: Hardcano 12 includes 4 sets of Thermal Probe. Attach each Thermal Probe to different heat sources with the included thermal tape.
Installation Installation 4 ) Alarm function 4.1 How to set the Alarm temperature Choose the parameter you wish to configure the alarm setting for. T1 T2 CPU cooler detect CPU temp VGA card cooler detect VGA temp. T3 T4 Power supply CPU fan detect PSU temp detect case environment temp. Example T1 : CAUTION: Avoid excessive pressure to the sensor 3.3 How to read temperature Example T1 : Press the "Alarm" button repeatedly until your desired temperature is shown on the LCD. (Default: 60OC ) EX.
Installation Installation 5 ) Auto and Manual Mode 5.1 How to distinguish Auto/Manual mode While the computer is idling or under minor workload workload,, it is recommended to switch operating mode to Automatic to minimize the overall noise level. Auto. Mode (when you away from the computer or the system workload is minor ) Each fan's speed will be automatically adjusted according to each preset location's temperature.
Q&A Q&A Q1:The Hardcano 12 Module does not come on after system is Powered? Ans: Please make sure the main power connector is connected to Power Supply. Part III Q&A Make sure all connectors are connected securely. Q2: LCD does not display temperature? Ans:1.Make sure its corresponding Thermal Probe is attached correctly to the component you wish to monitor. 2. Examine the Thermal Probe to see if there is any cut or Discontinuity! Q3: LCD does not display fan RPM? Ans:1.
Q&A Q4: Hardcano 12 unit is unable to adjust fan speed? Ans: A portion of fan unit have built in fan speed control. To allow Hardcano 12 to take control, certain steps need to be Performed. ie. Insert jumper. Fan Failure Display In the event of a failure, Hardcano 12 unit will sound off alarm and LCD will have the following RPM display: 0000.
