Koolance ERM-3K3UC-R - Manual (Page 6)

4 5 User Manual
CAUTION: Generally, sensors report liquid temperature at the water
block, which is typically 5-10°C (9-18°F) lower than the actual heat
source. This difference must be considered if adjusting alarm/shut-
down temperatures. Setting alarm/shutdown modes at too high of
temperature can eliminate this feature’s effectiveness. Please see the
Koolance CPU water block user manual for information on attaching
thermal sensors. !
System Features
to 100% power. If any sensor reaches its set shutdown point, the system will
shutdown power to the computer via relay using the “ATX pass-through” wire.
TEMP1 55C 56C : Sensor #1, Alarm Point, Shutdown Point
TEMP2 51C 54C : Sensor #2, Alarm Point, Shutdown Point
TEMP3 60C 70C : Sensor #3, Alarm Point, Shutdown Point
When in the “Temperature Settings” menu, the selected temperature sensor will
flash. Press
▼ and ▲ to navigate, or press
◙
to select a sensor to configure:
TEMP1 SET
AL: 55C PW: 56C : AL = Alarm, PW = Power (Shutdown)
The alarm value will flash. Press ▼ or ▲ to adjust a value. Press
◙
to change
to the shutdown temperature. Press
◙
again to exit configuration of this sensor.
Press ◄ to return to the previous menu.
NOTE: The shutdown temperature must be at least 1ºC (1-2ºF) higher than the
alarm temperature. If an alarm temperature can not be increased, increase the
shutdown temperature first. The minimum and maximum temperature range
allowable is 0-99ºC (32-210ºF).
FAN SET
This cooling system has multiple fan channels which can be adjusted. However, it
is recommended to only use the master fan channel (“ALL FANS”) when adjusting
fan speeds to ensure even airflow.
ALL FANS 50% : All Fans (Master), Speed Setting %
FAN1 SET 84% : Fan Channel #1, Speed Setting %
FAN2 SET 47% : Fan Channel #2, Speed Setting %
FAN3 SET 30% : Fan Channel #3, Speed Setting %
The selected fan channel will flash. Press ▼ and ▲ to navigate, press ◄ to return
to the previous menu, or press
◙
to configure this fan channel:
ALL FANS 50%
The speed value will flash. Press ▼ or ▲ to adjust this value. Press
◙
to confirm
the setting.
Higher fan speeds can improve performance, but will produce more noise. Fan
speeds can be adjusted manually from 0-100%.
CAUTION: F an percentages are based on PWM duty. Fans will not
operate if set too low. The minimum recommended setting for fans is
20%. !
Instead of manual speeds, fans can also be set to automatic. This is highly
recommended, since speeds will change based on temperature sensor feedback.
This is a good way to keep noise levels to a minimum while allowing the cooling
system to respond to temperature. To set a fan channel to automatic, press
▲ past
100% until “AUTO” is shown:
ALL FANS AUTO
From here, press
◙
to configure the automatic mode:
ALL FANS AUTO
T1 L45C H80C : Temp Sensor, Low Point, High Point
The number following “T” designates the temperature sensor this fan channel will
follow. When flashing, press
▼ or ▲ to change sensors (1-3). Press
◙
to move
to the next option.
The number following “L” is the temperature low point. The number following “H”
is the temperature high point. Automatic fan control will adjust fans on a dynamic
ramp between these two points:
When the temperature low point is flashing, press ▼ or ▲ to adjust it. Press
◙
to
move to the temperature high point, and press ▼ or ▲ to adjust it. Press
◙
again
to return to the previous menu.
