5. Configuració

5.1 Instal·lació

1. Prepara el teu ordinador: Power off your computer and unplug it from the power outlet. Open your PC case to access the fan mounting locations.
2. Mount the fan unit: Position the ZA-240BR fan unit in your desired location (e.g., top, front, bottom of the case). Secure it using the provided mounting screws. Ensure the reverse blades are oriented to pull air in or push air out as intended for your case's airflow strategy.
3. Connecteu els cables: The fan unit features simplified cabling for both PWM (4-pin) and ARGB (3-pin, 5V) connections. Connect the 4-pin PWM cable to an available fan header on your motherboard. Connect the 3-pin ARGB cable to a compatible 5V ARGB header on your motherboard.

5.2 Esquema de cablejat

The ZA-240BR unit uses a single cable for both fan power/control and ARGB lighting, simplifying cable management. Connect the 4-pin connector to a PWM fan header and the 3-pin 5V ARGB connector to a compatible ARGB header on your motherboard. If your motherboard lacks a 5V ARGB header, an external ARGB controller (not included) will be required for lighting control.

6. Instruccions de funcionament

6.1 Control de velocitat del ventilador (PWM)

The 4-pin PWM connector allows your motherboard to dynamically control the fan speed based on system temperature. This ensures optimal cooling performance while minimizing noise. You can configure fan curves through your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or dedicated software provided by your motherboard manufacturer.

6.2 Control d'il·luminació ARGB

The 3-pin 5V ARGB connector enables synchronization of the fan's lighting effects with your motherboard's ARGB ecosystem. Use your motherboard's RGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync) to customize colors, patterns, and brightness of the infinity mirror lighting. Ensure your motherboard's ARGB header supports the number of LEDs in the fan unit (52 lamp beads around the circumference and 18 in the axis).

7. Manteniment

7.1 Neteja

Regular cleaning helps maintain optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your fan. Periodically, with the PC powered off and unplugged:

• Use compressed air to remove dust from the fan blades and frame.
• Gently wipe the fan frame and infinity mirror surfaces with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
• Avoid using liquid cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can damage the fan or its lighting components.

8. Solució De Problemes

8.1 Fan Not Spinning

• Comproveu si el cable PWM de 4 pins està connectat correctament al capçal del ventilador de la placa base.
• Verify that the fan header is enabled in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings.
• Proveu el ventilador en un capçal de ventilador diferent o amb un ventilador que se sàpiga que funciona per descartar un capçal defectuós.

8.2 ARGB Lighting Not Working or Incorrect

• Ensure the 3-pin 5V ARGB cable is correctly connected to a compatible 5V ARGB header on your motherboard. No connecteu a un connector RGB de 12V, ja que això danyarà els LED.
• Check your motherboard's RGB software to ensure the lighting is enabled and configured correctly.
• Confirm that your motherboard's ARGB header or external controller supports the number of LEDs in the fan unit (52 circumference, 18 axis). Some lower-end controllers may not support this count, leading to partial or no illumination.
• If using an external ARGB controller, ensure it is properly powered and configured.

8.3 Soroll excessiu

• Check for any obstructions (e.g., cables) hitting the fan blades.
• Ensure the fan unit is securely mounted and not vibrating against the PC case.
• Adjust the fan speed curve in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI or software to reduce RPM at lower temperatures.
