3. Opsætning og installation

Follow these steps to properly install your Thermalright TL-P12-S fan.

3.1. Understanding Fan Airflow

For normal airflow design fans, the side with the fan blades typically acts as the intake, drawing air in. The side with the frame structure acts as the exhaust, pushing air out. Ensure you install the fan in the correct orientation for your desired airflow direction within your PC case.

3.2. Connecting the Fan

The TL-P12-S fan features two main connectors: a 4-pin PWM connector for fan speed control and a 3-pin 5V ARGB connector for lighting control.

1. PWM-forbindelse: Locate an available 4-pin fan header on your motherboard. Connect the fan's 4-pin PWM cable to this header. This allows the motherboard to automatically control the fan speed based on system temperature. If connecting multiple fans, use the provided PWM sharing connector to synchronize fan speeds.
2. ARGB-forbindelse: Locate an available 3-pin 5V Addressable RGB (ARGB) header on your motherboard. Connect the fan's 3-pin ARGB cable to this header. This enables software control of the fan's lighting effects. If connecting multiple ARGB devices, use the provided ARGB sharing connector to synchronize lighting effects. Note: Ensure you connect to a 5V ARGB header, not a 12V RGB header, to prevent damage.

3.3. Montering af ventilatoren

The fan can be mounted to various locations within your PC case, such as the rear, top, front, or bottom, or to a CPU cooler/radiator. Use the included screws to secure the fan in place. The fan features soft-touch rubber pads on each corner to absorb vibrations and reduce noise.

4. Betjeningsvejledning

4.1. Ventilatorhastighedskontrol (PWM)

The 4-pin PWM connector allows your motherboard to dynamically adjust the fan's speed (up to 1500 RPM) based on the CPU or system temperature. This ensures efficient cooling when needed and quieter operation during lighter loads. You can typically configure fan curves in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or through manufacturer-provided software.

4.2. ARGB-lysstyring

The 3-pin 5V ARGB connector allows you to control the fan's lighting effects through your motherboard's ARGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light Sync, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync). The fan supports multiple modes of ARGB light effects, offering extensive customization options.

5. Vedligeholdelse

Regelmæssig vedligeholdelse er med til at sikre optimal ydeevne og forlænger din ventilators levetid.

• Rensning: Periodically clean the fan blades and frame to remove dust buildup. Use a soft brush or compressed air. Ensure the system is powered off before cleaning.
• Leje: The Thermalright TL-P12-S uses an S-FDB (Stably-FDB) bearing, which is designed for low-friction and low-noise operation with a long service life. This bearing is maintenance-free and should not be disassembled.

6. Fejlfinding

Hvis du støder på problemer med din ventilator, kan du se følgende almindelige problemer og løsninger:

• Ventilatoren drejer ikke:
  • Kontroller, om 4-bens PWM-stikket er korrekt tilsluttet bundkortets blæserheader.
  • Ensure the fan header is enabled in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings.
  • Test the fan on a different fan header or with a fan controller to rule out a faulty header.
• ARGB Lights Not Working/Incorrect Colors:
  • Verify that the 3-pin 5V ARGB connector is securely plugged into the correct 5V ARGB header on your motherboard. Do not connect to a 12V RGB header.
  • Ensure your motherboard's ARGB software is installed and configured correctly.
  • Check for any loose connections in the ARGB daisy chain if multiple devices are connected.
• Overdreven støj:
  • Ensure the fan is securely mounted and not vibrating against the case or other components.
  • Kontroller, om der er kabler eller forhindringer, der berører ventilatorbladene.
  • Rengør eventuelt støvophobning på ventilatorbladene.
  • Adjust fan speed settings in your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI or software to a lower RPM if noise is a concern during low load.
