I need to talk to someone who has fans, TCF1212DE (DELTA). someone there?
I can't find that model with Google (typo maybe). I have Delta fans on my S5's. I just hooked them onto the fans ports on the controller. What's going on for you
these are the fan, but now I know for sure that the controller S5 can not handle
http://www.cwc-group.com/tfc1212desp07.htmlSome people had to change the order of the wires to work proper.
Mine are the
Delta AFB1212SHE and worked with the standard wiring configuration.
I hope you can get yours to work.
yours was a 5 pin fan, thats why..
yours is also only 1.6A
his is a 4pin PWM with Speed Sensor Inverter and also 4 AMPS per fan.. (i think he got the cheapest fans he can find as the afb fan is usually about 5-10$ more)
basically he has 2 issues.. well more then 2 issues since i have said this in 3 of his threads that he created..
issue 1, the s5 controller cant do 4 amps on the board.. when i plugged mine in the s5 woudlnt even turn on..
issue 2 is that fan as an inverted pwm controller.. you see normal fans have a pwm that uses 0v for full speed and 5v for off.. this is why when you cut the blue wire the fan goes full speed..
on this fan, it uses 0v for off and 5v for full speed..
this means that if you dont connect the blue wire to ~5v, the fan wont even turn on.
this is an issue on the s5 becuase when you first turn on the s5 it puts 0v to the pwm line, making the original fan turn on full speed while the unit is booting up.. but this fan wont appear to do anything at all. (since it wont boot up with 4 amp fans it probably wont ever do anything)
then when the s5 boots up, it lowers the volts down to whatever is needed temp wise. but since this fan is backwards, it will actually slow down as temps increase, eventually turning back off again as this fan wont run at under 2000 rpms or so.. so even if you hook the red and black wire to the black and yellow wires of a molex and then use the blue and yellow wires on this fan connected to the fan header it still wont work correctly
