EXTENSION FAN UNITS
19
CLOUDPLATE SERIES
To add more cooling and ventilation to your rack, you can plug in additional fans such as the
RACK ROOF FAN into a CLOUDPLATE Series unit. There is a port on the backside marked
“EXT.” which allows the unit to support additional fans. You can also connect one CLOUD-
PLATE unit to another to share the same settings; a daisy chain cord is required. The conn-
cted CLOUDPLATE unit must be set to SPEED Settings Mode, it’s speed set to max, and
the alarm turned off. Connected fans will share the same temperature control settings.
CONTROLLER 12
The Controller 12 can also control CLOUDPLATE Series fan units and RACK ROOF
FANS in the exact same way as described above. In addition, it can also control
AIRPLATE Series cabinet fans and MULTIFAN Series component USB fans. On
the backside, plug USB fans into ports marked “5V DC” to share the same
temperature settings. Connected USB fans must have their speed set to max if they
feature an inline speed controller.
