FAQ

Q1: About the beeper
A1: The fan controller will beep about 5~6 times for system initialization, it is normal.

The beeper might be caused by the temperature alarm or fan speed alarm.
- the temperature detected may already exceed your alarm setting,
- the thermal sensor may be faulty,
- the fan speed is lower then your RPM setting,
- you may have a faulty fan.
In these cases, your LCD display will be flashing and turn red.

There is no way to disable the buzzer, the only way is to remove the buzzer physically which we do not recommend. Aerocool will not be responsible for the damage caused by removing the buzzer.


Q2: Software not working
A2: Make sure you have downloaded the GateWatch software from our website http://www.aerocool.com.tw/p-peripheral/coolwatch/coolwatch.htm and have installed it properly into your system.

When you run the GateWatch software for the first time or whenever you change your connected fan, you should RESET the software by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Left Mouse Click on the red dot of the display.


Q3: "Runtime error 5" problem
A3: For "Runtime error 5" problem, it is most likely that your USB hardware or software have problem. Please do the followings:

First, make sure USB cables are connected to motherboard properly. There are two sets of USB cable, one for card reader and the other for fan controller. Connect the VCC, D-, D+, GND cable to correspond pins of USB port on your motherboard, please be cautious, wrong connection will cause system not functioning or damaged. (Please refer to the picture for USB connection)

Second, check your system Device Manager to see if USB drivers are installed and functioning properly (make sure there is no "yellow flag" in all USB devices). Most of the time the problem come from systemˇ¦s USB port (hardware) or USB driver (software), in general, you don't need to install USB driver as long as you are running WIN XP or above, however, for some motherboards you may have to install USB driver which came with your motherboard.

Third, when you run the GateWatch software for the first time, please try to RESET the software by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Left Mouse Click on the red dot of the display.

Q4: Thermal sensor problem
A4: The thermal sensor is very fragile especially in the tip of sensor. It can not be pressed or bent, it can only be taped with thermal sticker to the surface where you want to measure its temperature. If the sensor was damaged, it will cause alarm to buzz and the display will start flashing.

The thermal sensor we used is NTC type of thermistor, the operating temperature range is from -30C ~ 90C, rated zero-power resistance is 10k ohm +/- 3% (at 25C). The thermal time constant is 5.0 sec (approx.) in air. This is a common type of sensor, you can purchase at electronic shops or computer stores. If you do have problem to get the thermal sensor in your area, please contact us for assistance.

Q5: Do I need Driver for card reader
A4: There is no need to install the driver for card reader as long as you are running WIN XP or above. However, if you are running Window 98/SE/2000 then you have to install the driver for card reader. You can get the driver from the CD included in the package or you can download it from our this page.
