- Four channels of ZM-MFC2 detect fan RPM signals. - The Alarm will activate if a fan is not connected or if there is no RPM input signal for any of the channels. - To deactivate the Alarm, the Stand-By Mode (default setting: ON) of each unused channel must be deactivated. | | | | 1. | 1. Selecting a Channel/Deactivating Stand-By Mode (1) Select a channel with the Mode Button (The selected channel will begin to flicker). (2) Press the Jog Wheel to deactivate the selected channel’s Stand-By Mode. The fan image will turn off. (3) Deactivate the Stand-By Mode of all unused channels as mentioned above. | |
| Note: Deactivating the Stand-By Mode of all the channels will not deactivate other functions (Channel Output, RPM Display, RPM Setting & Saving etc.) | |
| 2. | 2. RPM Setting and Saving (1) Select a channel with the Mode Button. (2) Set the RPM with the Jog Wheel. (Turning the Jog Wheel in clockwise motion will increase the RPM, and turning it counter-clockwise will decrease the RPM) (3) Press the Mode Button again to save the set value and to select the next channel. (If nothing is input for 5 seconds, the ZM-MFC2 will automatically save the latest setting and leave the Setting Mode). | |

Good product, does the job, bad viewing angle blah blah blah. Not sad I bought it, but really it should be like $40. My biggest complaint is the watt meter is horribly inaccurate. Q6600, 2x8800gts 640, 4g ram, strike extreme mb and I'm only using 230watts at load. My comp wouldn't even turn on with a 620psu I had to upgrade. So I think the watt guage is pretty useless.

Good Product. Happy with my purchase. But Scythe fan controler cost less than this one (i own one) for the same result (half the price).

This does what it's supposed to do, but the viewing angles on the LED are absolutely horrid. The wattage monitor is pretty neat.

I picked this up earlier this week while I was in Vancouver and I love it. It took a while to install, but that was in part due to the fact tha tI was instaling 3 new fans at the same time. Its controls are really easy to use and the lcd gives all the info you could need with regards to your fans. I was also pleasantly surprised because I didn't realize that it came with 4 temp sensors. Only thing I wish is that it came with another y splitter, really handy to be able to control 2 fans ( say 2 cpu heatsink fans ) with one control.

J'ai commendé ce contrôleur de ventilateurs pour un collègue qui voulait donner une touche estétique à son ordinateur et aussi pour avoir un contrôle complet de la temprérature de son boiter. En plus ce contrôleur vient avec un wattmètre intégré. Un bon achat si pricematché.

Really good product overall. I really like how I can control 4 fans to get rid of the noise when Iam only surfing the net and so forth. The temp/wattage readout is also a very cool feature. The only problem is to read the display you have to be looking directly at it.

I'd say its a fairly solid product. Looks sexy, pretty functional.. watt meter is nice. The viewing angle really is horrid, and because of this alone, i would probably not buy again. if this was fixed I would give it 5 stars, but for now, its a 3.

Just like everyone else is saying, the display on this is terrible. You need to be veiwing it pretty much straight on to make any sense out of what it is saying. However, if you are like me and keep your rig higher up on your desk, then it's pretty cool.
