Happy New Year everyone,
It seems I greatly underestimated the complexity of Corsair fan set ups. I have 2 LL120 fans up front in my Corsair 280x case which came with them pre-installed with Lighting Node Pro. I bought an additional 2 QL140 fans for the top. I figured since I have Lightning Node Pro, I wouldn't need to worry.
However, the iCUE lighting control software asks me to specify which type of fan is going into each of the 2 lighting channels (ports) on my lightning node pro. I have two types currently plugged in to Port 1 as you can see below, and only the LL120 fans work. There is no light at all from the QL fans.
As I understand it, the QL fans will have to go into Lighting Node Pro port 2, so that i can control each of the 2 channels in iCUE individually. Is this correct?
If so, how can I avoid buying a Corsair RGB Hub (which I assume functions just as a fan splitter)? I don't want to buy another RGB hub just for connecting 2 fans to the second port of Lightning Node Pro.
I know it is confusing, so here is the setup currently which is not working:
