    Sorry to hijack this thread but since my problem is related to this controller and gigabyte motherboard, I didnt want to make a new thread when it relates.

    CPU AMD Ryzen 7 1800x

    Gigabyte AX370-Gaming K7

    G.Skill RGB Memory

    I currently have 4 Riing Plus 12 fans and one Floe Riing 360 in my build.  Since i have 7 fans that need to be controlled I purchased the TT Sync Controller TT Premium Edition.  I understand that each side of the controller has a PWM plug that gets plugged into a fan header on my mother board.    What has me stumped is the cable marked VDG with a three pin configuration, there is no 3 pin header on the board marked VDG. There are however in two locations a header marked LED_C1 and LED_C2.  At the LED_C1 header there are 4 pins marked from left to right (P1-12V, P2-G, P3-R, P4-B) and at the LED_C2 header its a 5 pin setup marked from left to right (P1-12V, P2-G, P3-R, P4-B, P5-W).  I want to be able to control all of this through the Gigabyte Fusion software.  

    Any help is much appreciated and Thanks in advance!

    Just looked at the Gigabyte AX370-Gaming K7 It does not have a addressable header. So unfortunately a TT sync controller is not compatible with that board.

  2. Have you tested this not daisy chained not that it should make any difference as they are designed to be daisy chained. 

    Also could be something in the software have you tried uninstalling the software then deleting C:\Users\*your username*\AppData\Roaming\Tt. Then reinstalling it.

    Or you might have a bad switch on one of the units 

    If you have tried the above and being that you have the switches in the correct position and you stated in your other post you have tried different switch variations I would probably just file a rma for a new controller they are good at getting them out fast

  3. If the update worked your all good. If the update didn't work try the following:

    1. checked all connections
    2. try a different usb cable. You can also use a standard micro usb cable and hook it to the back of your pc for testing.
    3. tried a different power cable. Most power supply's will have a floppy power cable on them.
    4. checked the switches on the controller to have them coincide with what the manual states 
    5. Tried reinstalling the software including deleting the folder at C:\Users\*your username*\AppData\Roaming\Tt

    If all that does not work file a rma for a replacement controller.

  4. That would be a bit over kill but yes. you just have to make sure you connect them correctly as it is not forgiving. A split second with it hooked up wrong and a lot of damage can happen.

    Now the thing is I am not sure how the tt sync gets its 5v for the leds. I have been meaning to buy two TT sync's for testing\diagnostics but just got other things that I want before I buy something that I am not going to be using in my own build. But I have been told that it pulls from the 5v from motherboard and I have also been told that the controller provides the 5v power. The main thing is I have yet to get a definitive answer on that. I would love to get my hands on one just to hit it with a multimeter.

    What I am rambling about is if it pulls the 5v from the motherboard it will not provide enough amps for powering all that.
    On my build I had to pull my 5v from my psu due to my motherboard only providing 2 amps and I needed about 8 amps. However I don't recommend doing unless you know what you are doing.
