Antec Low Noise Technology:
The Antec TruePower power supply is equipped with
special circuitry to achieve optimum balance between noise reduction and necessary cooling.
Thanks to an advanced temperature response system the power supply fans run at the lowest
speed appropriate to load and conditions. The result is a great reduction in overall noise,
even in comparison to traditional thermally-controlled fans.
Your TruePower power supply can also monitor and control the system case fan speed.
There are two dedicated fan connectors marked Fan Only from the power supply for system
case fans. You may connect your case fans to them and have the TruePower circuitry
control the speed of the case fans.
Note:
Please do not connect more than three external fans to the Fan Only connectors in
any combination. For maximum cooling you may choose to connect the case fans to the
regular 4-pin peripheral connectors, but in this fashion noise will not be reduced.
Connectors:
The Antec TruePower power supply is an ATX12V form factor power
supply. An ATX12V power supply has a single 20-pin Main Power Connector, a 6-pin
AUX Power Connector and a 4-pin +12V Power Connector to the motherboard. It also
comes with seven 4-pin Peripheral Power Connectors and two 4-pin Floppy Drive Power
Connectors to your drives. It is backwards compatible to previous ATX form factor power
supplys. If your motherboard does not support the AUX Power Connector or the +12V
Power Connector, you can still use this power supply.
The TruePower power supply is also equipped with a 3-pin fan signal connector. Connect
it to one of the fan connectors on your motherboard. You may monitor the speed of the rear
power supply fan through your motherboard BIOS or through the monitoring software that
comes with your motherboard.
Note:
The speed of the fan may be as low as 1500 RPM when temperatures are low. At
these speeds some motherboards may not be able to properly detect the fan speed and may
generate false warnings of fan failure. Please refer to your motherboard manual for proper
fan monitoring set up.
Power Switch:
This power supply comes with a main power switch. Make sure you
turn the switch to the ON (
I )
position before you boot up your computer for the first time.
In normal operation there is no need to turn the switch to the OFF (O) position since the
power supply is equipped with a soft on/off feature which turns your computer on and off
through the soft switch on your computer case. You may need to turn the switch to the OFF
position occasionally should your computer crash and you cannot shut it down through use
of the soft switch.
