The InWin Saturn ASN120 is a high-airflow ARGB case fan designed to enhance the cooling and aesthetic appeal of a PC build. Inspired by the vibrant colors of outer space, these fans feature addressable RGB lighting and a modular design for improved cable management and daisy-chaining capabilities.

Function Description:

The Saturn ASN120 fans are primarily designed for cooling PC components by moving air efficiently within the computer case. They feature a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) function, allowing for dynamic speed control based on system temperature, ensuring optimal cooling performance and reduced noise levels when less cooling is required. The integrated ARGB lighting provides customizable visual effects, which can be synchronized with compatible motherboards or controlled via the included ARGB One-Click Controller PLUS. The modular design allows multiple fans to be connected directly to each other, simplifying cable routing and reducing clutter.

Usage Features:

Modular Design: Fans can be directly connected to each other using 6-6 Pin Fan Cables (100mm or 1000mm options included), enabling daisy-chaining of up to 10 ASN fans. This significantly simplifies cable management.
ARGB One-Click Controller PLUS (Triple Pack Only): This controller allows users to manage ARGB lighting effects even without a compatible ARGB motherboard. It features:
- M/B ARGB Port (for motherboard synchronization)
- M/B PWM Port (for motherboard fan speed control)
- Main Cable Port (connects to the first fan in the chain)
- ARGB Port (for connecting additional ARGB peripherals)
- PC 2-Pin Reset Port (allows ARGB effect adjustment via PC case reset button)
- Special Specification Port
- Button (for cycling through lighting modes)
Lighting Modes: The controller offers 15 distinct lighting modes, including:
1. Rainbow
2. LED-Red
3. LED-Green
4. LED-Blue
5. LED-Purple
6. LED-White
7. Light at the end of the Tunnel
8. Two-Tone Ring
9. Diagonal Transition
10. Rotating LED Trio
11. Full Circle
12. Flow-Red
13. Flow-Green
14. Flow-Blue
15. Turn Off the Light
Mode Switching:
- M/B Mode: If the motherboard supports a 3-pin, 5V ARGB header, the controller automatically connects to "M/B Mode," allowing ARGB lighting effects to be controlled via motherboard software.
- Controller Mode: If the motherboard does not support ARGB, the controller switches to "Controller Mode," enabling lighting effect changes via the controller's button or the connected PC reset button. Users can switch between "M/B Mode" and "Controller Mode" by tapping the button once or holding it for 3 seconds, respectively.
Connectivity:
- PWM Cable: Connects the controller to the motherboard's 4-pin PWM header for fan speed control.
- ARGB Cable: Connects the controller to the motherboard's 3-pin, 5V ARGB header for lighting synchronization.
- Main Cable: Connects the controller to the first fan in the daisy chain.
- SATA Power Connector: Powers the controller and connected fans from the PSU.
Installation: The controller features a magnetic strip on its back for easy placement on metal parts within the PC case.

Maintenance Features:

Troubleshooting: If the fan does not operate properly, users should check the system's power and ensure all connectors are properly connected.
Important Notes for Longevity and Safety:
- Install fans according to instructions.
- Store the product away from high temperatures and heat sources (e.g., heaters).
- Do not insert anything into the impeller.
- Do not modify the wires or connectors provided by InWin.
- Avoid touching fan blades during operation.
- Use the fan only in a computer case.
- Keep the product away from liquids.
Long Lifespan Sleeve Bearing: This bearing type contributes to the fan's durability and operational lifespan.

The InWin Saturn ASN120 fans are designed for users seeking an aesthetically pleasing and efficient cooling solution with simplified installation and versatile ARGB control options.
