• Efficient Pulse Width Modulation (PWM): PWM functionality allows the fan to automatically adjust its speed (RPM) based on component temperature, optimizing cooling performance and noise levels.
• Daisy Chain Capable: Multiple units can be connected directly to synchronize ARGB lighting effects, simplifying cable management and lighting control.
• Motherboard ARGB Software Compatibility: The fan syncs directly with most major motherboard manufacturers' ARGB software, including Asus, MSI, and others, for comprehensive lighting customization.

3. Configuración e instalación

3.1 Instalación física

1. Identifica a localización de montaxe desexada dentro da caixa do teu PC (por exemplo, frontal, superior, traseira ou radiador).
2. Align the fan with the screw holes on your case or radiator. Ensure the fan is oriented to push or pull air in the desired direction for optimal airflow.
3. Secure the fan using the provided mounting screws. Tighten screws evenly to prevent warping and reduce potential vibration noise.

3.2 Conexións eléctricas

1. Conexión PWM: Connect the fan's 4-pin PWM cable to an available 4-pin fan header on your motherboard. This allows the motherboard to control the fan speed based on system temperatures.
2. Conexión ARGB: Connect the fan's 3-pin ARGB cable to an available 3-pin 5V ARGB header on your motherboard. Ensure it is a 5V ARGB header and not a 12V RGB header to prevent damage.
3. Daisy Chain (Optional): If installing multiple XPG Hurricane ARGB fans, you can connect them in a daisy chain using the provided ARGB pass-through connectors. Connect the ARGB output of one fan to the ARGB input of the next fan, and then connect the last fan's ARGB input to the motherboard header.

4. Instrucións de funcionamento

4.1 Control da velocidade do ventilador (PWM)

The fan's speed is automatically regulated by your motherboard's PWM function. You can typically adjust the fan curve settings within your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI or through dedicated motherboard software (e.g., ASUS AI Suite, MSI Dragon Center, Gigabyte SIV) to customize fan behavior based on temperature thresholds.

4.2 Control de iluminación ARGB

To control the Addressable RGB lighting, use your motherboard's ARGB synchronization software. This software allows you to select various lighting effects, colors, and patterns. Ensure your motherboard's ARGB header is properly connected and recognized by the software.

5. Mantemento

Un mantemento regular axuda a garantir un rendemento óptimo e unha maior lonxevidade do ventilador:

• Eliminación de po: Limpa periodicamente a acumulación de po das aspas e da estrutura do ventilador con aire comprimido ou un cepillo suave. Asegúrate de que o ventilador estea apagado antes de limpalo.
• Inspección: Check for any obstructions around the fan blades or unusual noises during operation.

6 Solución de problemas

• O ventilador non xira:
  • Verify that the 4-pin PWM cable is securely connected to the motherboard fan header.
  • Comproba a configuración da BIOS/UEFI da túa placa base para asegurarte de que o conector do ventilador estea activado e configurado correctamente.
• A iluminación ARGB non funciona:
  • Confirm the 3-pin ARGB cable is correctly connected to a 5V ARGB header on your motherboard. Avoid connecting to 12V RGB headers.
  • Ensure your motherboard's ARGB software is installed and updated. Check if the software detects the ARGB device.
  • If daisy-chaining, ensure all connections between fans are secure.
• Ruído excesivo:
  • Comprobe se o ventilador está montado correctamente e se non vibra contra a carcasa.
  • Adjust the fan speed curve in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI or software to reduce RPM at lower temperatures.
  • Ensure no cables or obstructions are interfering with the fan blades.
