Instruccions de funcionament
Control de velocitat del ventilador (PWM)
The Montech AX 140 ARGB fan utilizes Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for precise speed control. Once connected to a 4-Pin PWM header on your motherboard, you can manage the fan speed through your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or dedicated software provided by your motherboard manufacturer. This allows for dynamic adjustment of fan speed based on system temperature, optimizing cooling performance and noise levels.
Control d'il·luminació ARGB
The Addressable RGB (ARGB) lighting can be controlled via your motherboard's ARGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync). Ensure your motherboard's software is up-to-date for the best lighting customization experience.
Manteniment
Neteja
To maintain optimal performance and airflow, regularly clean your Montech AX 140 ARGB fan:
- Apagueu l'ordinador i desconnecteu-lo de la font d'alimentació.
- Use compressed air to gently remove dust accumulation from the fan blades and frame. Hold the fan blades to prevent them from spinning rapidly during cleaning, which can damage the bearings.
- For stubborn dirt, a soft, dry cloth can be used. Avoid using liquid cleaners directly on the fan.
Resolució de problemes
El ventilador no gira
- Check if the 4-Pin PWM connector is securely attached to the motherboard fan header.
- Verify that the fan header is enabled in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings.
- Ensure the system is receiving power.
