4. Configuración e instalación

Follow these steps to install your Xigmatek Galaxy II Elite AY120 ARGB fans:

  1. Prepara o teu sistema: Power off your computer and disconnect it from the power outlet. Open your computer case.
  2. Montar os ventiladores:
    • Identify the desired mounting locations for the 120mm fans within your PC case (e.g., front, top, rear).
    • Secure each fan to the case using the provided mounting screws. Ensure the fan's airflow direction is appropriate for your cooling setup (typically intake at the front/bottom, exhaust at the rear/top).
  3. Connect Fans to Control Box:
    • Connect the 6-pin fan cables from each of the three AY120 ARGB fans to the corresponding ports on the ARGB Control Box.
    • Ensure connections are firm.
  4. Connect Control Box to Power:
    • Connect the SATA power connector from your power supply unit (PSU) to the ARGB Control Box. This provides power to the fans and RGB lighting.
  5. Connect Control Box to Motherboard (Optional ARGB Sync):
    • If your motherboard has a 5V 3-pin Addressable RGB (ARGB) header, you can connect the ARGB sync cable from the control box to this header. This allows you to control the fan lighting via your motherboard's RGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync).
    • Note: Do not connect to a 12V 4-pin RGB header, as this will damage the fans.
  6. Xestión de cables Pasa todos os cables con coidado para garantir unha circulación de aire axeitada e unha construción limpa.
  7. Pasos finais: Close your computer case, reconnect the power, and power on your system.

5. Instrucións de funcionamento

Once installed, you can control the ARGB lighting of your fans using either the included IR remote control or your motherboard's software (if connected to a 5V ARGB header).

5.1. Using the IR Remote Control

5.2. Motherboard ARGB Software Control

If you have connected the control box to your motherboard's 5V 3-pin ARGB header, you can use your motherboard's proprietary software to synchronize and customize the lighting effects. Refer to your motherboard's manual for specific instructions on using its ARGB software.

  • Ensure the ARGB sync cable is properly connected.
  • Install the latest version of your motherboard's RGB control software.
  • Select the appropriate ARGB device within the software to control the fans.

6. Mantemento

Un mantemento regular axuda a garantir un rendemento óptimo e unha maior duración dos teus ventiladores.

  • Limpeza: Periodically clean the fan blades and frames to remove dust buildup. Use a soft brush or compressed air. Ensure the computer is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.
  • Inspección: Comprobe se os cables do ventilador presentan algún signo de desgaste ou dano. Asegúrese de que todas as conexións estean ben fixadas.
