Lamptron FC5V3 instruction manual
Thank you for choosing Lamptron. The Lamptron FC5 V3 controller is optimized for air-cooled systems but it can be used also for liquid cooling.
The following are the most worthy of your attention FC5 V3 features:
New wide screen with 16 bright colors: you can choose the backlight among 16 colors simply pressing the first knob on the left.
6 independent channels: 6 knobs allow the direct control of the 6 channels and the relative information is constantly displayed on the screen as speed, voltage and temperature.
30 W per channel: every channel handles up to 30 W.
Start boost: the FC5V3 provide an initial 12 V in all the channels in order to make the fans work even if set at the minimum working voltage.
Alarm function: the alarm function is programmable directly from the interface.
Sleeved cables: all the wires are wrapped with black high texture
“snakeskin” sleeving.
Cool PCB: as all the recent Lamptron products, the FC5V3 features a black PCB for the electronic circuit.
We recommend that you read the following detailed description of the FC5 V3 usage before putting it into use; the instructions will introduce the new interface and the actions for the configuration of all parameters.

FC5 V3
Instructions:
1. P1: Connect the power supply.
Tip: Be sure to use at least 18AWG wiring specifications.
2.Out1 Out6: channel 1 to channel 6 output interface for the connected load fan. The six interfaces are standard with KF2510
3pin interfaces.
Tip: You can also smooth insertion KF2510 4pin connector.
3.TEMP1 ~ TEMP6: are respectively connected to the P1 ~ P6 corresponding to the temperature sensitive.
Tip: Please put the corresponding output channel and the corresponding temperature sense connection; to manually adjust the voltage output according to the corresponding channel number of temperature sensing.
4.HSBOOT1: this jumper enables the start boost function in order to make the fans run also at minimum working voltage.
If the mini-jumper cap is connected, the fans will be start boost mode during the booting phase.
