Question Fractal R5 - Is it possible to monitor speed of fans connected to integrated fan controller?

Because I'm not too bright when I built this pc a month ago I connected the FD chassis fans to my MB headers, not realizing that the FD integrated fan controller had to be connected to SATA power and then to the chassis fans directly. So now I've done that and the fans spin but of course HWInfo etc. don't see them any more. Is it possible to monitor the fan speed for each of the controller positions or will their performance forever remain secret?

5v, 7v and 12v are their positions marked with L, M and H respectively.
^ max speed for the bundled fans is 1000rpm.

Nope, you find the speeds when you manually manage the voltage to the fans and the RPM signal(yellow) cable is attached to the motherboard.
